Description
It really is one hell of a story. Two brothers, hailing from the sleepy town of Willebroek in Belgium, rising through the hard-fought over ranks of the EDM elite, conquering the planet’s biggest festivals and dance floors and releasing some of the most successful, chart-topping releases in recent history.
For Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, now cemented in the pantheon of electronic greats with a #6 position in the 2013 DJ Mag Top 100, five Beatport #1 hits this year alone, an incredible 2 million+ fans on Facebook, their hit ‘Smash The House Radio’ show and their debut 20,000 capacity arena showcase ‘Bringing Home The Madness’ selling out in under 24 hours, the world is now absolutely at their feet.
Their electrifying live combination of DJ sets and crowd-busting MCing has propelled them towards party notoriety.. Fast becoming one of the go-to acts for major recording artists, the demand for Dimitri and Mike’s editing skills has gone through the roof. From having remixed for arguably the biggest artist in the world right now, Lady Gaga, who requested the boys’ take on her single ‘Marry The Night’, a remix that within hours of completion was scooped up for Radio 1’s peak-time Friday night show Ready For The Weekend. The duo have also scored edits for everyone from Billboard royalty Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull, LMFAO, Snoop Dogg, Sean Paul and more. It has been without doubt an absolute fairytale story that has emerged from this talented and grittily determined duo from Belgium. With their latest ‘Bring The World The Madness’ tour concept, with stops being dictated by their fans, launching in Antwerp in December as well as a huge run of major hits too come from Dimitri and Mike, these two titans of dance music show no signs of abating. As the summer of 2014 moves through to the autumn season, their story will continue to grow and develop, effectively establishing their place in the pantheon of modern dance music greats.
