Originally from Spijkenisse in the Netherlands, Grammy award-winning DJ and producer Afrojack is one of the most notable and iconic names in electronic dance music. A global icon, this Dutch DJ is versatile, creative, and has produced some of the greatest electronic tracks. Afrojack exploded onto the music scene with ‘Take Over Control’ featuring Eva Simmons, a track that was a hit in clubs worldwide. Other favorites include ‘The Spark,’ ‘Can’t Stop Me,’ and fan favorite ‘No Beef,’ a collaboration with Steve Aoki.

Swedish DJ Avicii, originally from Stockholm, is rocking the house scene. His hit ‘Level’ is well known in clubs beyond Sweden. Avicii composes tunes that don’t solely focus on a specific house genre, as this is something he wants to avoid; many of his tracks connect well with the public as they mostly relate to real life settings. Other fantastic tunes that you may recognize include ‘Wake me Up,’ ‘Waiting For Love,’ and ‘Hey Brother.’ At the young age of 26, Avicii still has lots more to show; keep your eyes peeled and ears open.

These brothers of Greek origin, but born and raised in Belgium, spent years traveling across Europe and playing in some of the best venues. Their style tends to focus mainly on electro, house, and techno, and they produce tracks that roar with bass, beats, and bangs. One of their biggest hits is ‘Tremors’ — a collaboration Martin Garrix. Another great tune by this duo is ‘La Cocaina/Eivissa 2007,’ a techno banger played by many other famous DJs. ‘Louder,’ a track with heavier bass, demonstrates and distinguishes the difference between Dimitri and Mike’s sound in comparison to music style of Avicii and David Guetta. If you’re more of a hardcore raver and prefer heavier tunes, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike are the DJs for you.

Some of Tiësto’s greatest tracks include ‘Adiago For Strings,’ ‘Traffic,’ ‘Love Comes Again,’ and ‘Just Be.’ Realistically, there are too many fabulous tracks to list, but that’s not surprising — he isn’t the world’s greatest DJ for nothing.
