A new teacher has arrived, and he goes by the name of Zack Martino. With his unique and recognizable sound, the young New York City native gained over one million monthly listeners on Spotify while dropping remixes for Armin van Buuren (‘Lonely For You’), Galantis (‘Rich Boy’) and The Chainsmokers (‘Paris’). His tracks ‘Hold On To Me’ and ‘Doomsday’ (with VASSY) were even considered for a Grammy for Best Dance Recording, and topped the U.S. charts.
