Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran have released the original 2015 version of ‘Repeat It,’ the demo that spent more than a decade as one of dance music’s most sought-after unreleased IDs.Ad 0:00 Click for sound 0:00 / 0:00 The track premiered during Garrix’s 2015 set at Ultra Music Festival in Miami and circulated for years via fan uploads before stalling out amid label and rights complications tied to the superstar artist’s era at Spinnin’ Records.
The pair finally broke the standoff with an official 2026 release version in May, timed to Garrix’s 30th birthday, then followed it with an acoustic rendition a month later.This latest cut of the track, out now via Garrix’s STMPD RCRDS, is the third version of the song to see the light of day over six weeks.
It is also the one that perhaps best explains the wait.Where the 2026 single leans euphoric and melodic, folding Sheeran’s pop sensibility into guitar and orchestral textures, the 2015 cut is more a product of the moment.
It runs on four-on-the-floor kicks and a punchy, plucked synth lead that sits squarely in the big-room house sound that defined festival mainstages of the era.The energy is hands-up rather than wistful, a snapshot of the sound Garrix was sharpening in the years after ‘Animals.’ For longtime fans, the release lands like an artifact from one of Garrix’s formative career chapters and a chance to finally hear the version that started the chase in the first place.
