Martin Garrix & Khalid's 'Ocean' Rises to #20* On Billboard Dance Chart
#1 DJ in the world Martin Garrix and 20-year-old Khalid have teamed up on ‘”Ocean” for a meeting of music minds – a high-end collaboration that vaults into this week’s #20* Billboard Dance Club Singles chart slot.
Effective today, the joint RCA / STMPD RCRDS effort has been played 210,000,000+ times on Spotify and the official video has enjoyed 175,000,000 individual views. The international duo have been boosted by a strong remix package that features expert reworks by the likes of Silque, DubVision and Garrix, himself, who added a twist to his own composition.
The official video for the young collaboration shows the “Location” singer taking center stage while a presumed Garrix takes turns between being locked in a translucent box with a female love interest and traversing through lighting displays. The interplay between the two and their “smoke and mirrors” set accentuate the overall message of the song. Watch the video for this week’s Top 20 Billboard-charting song “Ocean” below.
