From concussive main-stage bangers to sleekly polished pop, Afrojack does it all—a range that has served him well in his ascent as one of EDM's most visible figures. The Rotterdam DJ got discovered after uploading mixes to his mentor Laidback Luke's online forum and by 2010, when he released "Take Over Control", he became an ambassador for the "dirty Dutch" style of progressive house. As EDM has evolved, so has the artist born Nick van de Wall. Remixing Michael Jackson, collaborating with dance mavens like Tiësto, writing for Beyoncé—it's all part of his strategy for world domination.
