Marshmello [✖‿✖] as you can see is that DJ in that awesome helmet. No one really knows who he is, but there are so many people out there that are finally hearing how good his music is. Marshmello is making a name for himself at the biggest dance festivals in the United States. In 2016, he has had appearances at EDC New York, EDC Las Vegas and Ultra Miami. Not only is he becoming big in the United States, but he is also growing globally as well. In the last couple weeks of June this year, Marshmello has spent some time in China, Thailand, Vietnam and Japan. Parts of these international shows were put on Marshmello’s social media pages and these were not just your average sized crowd, a couple of these shows had large audiences.
His newest album "Joytime" was released January 26, 2016. There is not one bad song on this album and one of my favorites is easily "Keep It Mello(feat. Omar Linx)." Some of the other popular songs on this album include "Summer" and "Know Me." According to Marshmello, if you are a fan then you are apart of the Mellogang. So, after you have listened to his album, you too will be apart of the Mellogang.
The mystery of not knowing who Marshmello actually has helped his fan base grow immensely. At EDC Las Vegas Marshmello tricked the crowd into thinking he would take off his helmet, but when he did removed the helmet it was just Tiesto playing along with the joke. Another famous celebrity that has helped Marshmello gain some popularity is Khloe Kardashian. In a video that was posted on Marshmello’s social media pages, Khloe was wearing a Marshmello helmet until she was unmasked.
To continue with other artists and celebrities that are supporting Marshmello, Martin Garrix has tweeted with Marshemello about a possibly collaboration. For those of you reading this who don’t know Martin Garrix, he is a massive popular DJ who got big off of his track named Animals that you have probably heard before. Animals has more than 800 million views on youtube. So, any song Marshmello makes with Martin Garrix will definitely be getting the play time it deserves.
Another huge artist that has been helping Marshmello is Justin Bieber. Back in early 2015, Jack Ü created a song with Justin Bieber called, Where Are Ü Now. Later that year, Marshmello released his remix of Where Are Ü Now on SoundCloud. This remix has reached more than nine million plays. This song has definitely reached more than nine million people because at some of Justin Bieber’s concerts he uses this remix. If you like this remix then you are sure to like his other remixes as well. Marshmello is getting bigger by the day and he will be a well known DJ in the near future.
