Another Dutchman that has made a name for himself in the world of dance music over the last twelve months is Nicky Romero, who at the young age of 24 has already collaborated with a host of the biggest names in the electronic music industry, such as Calvin Harris, David Guetta and his countryman Tiesto. Arguably his biggest success story of the year was 'I Could Be The One' with Avicii, whose stock has continued to rise with hit after hit since the release of 'Levels' 2 years ago. The song, featuring vocals from Noonie Bao, went straight to #1 in the UK, staying there for several weeks Having also played at events such as Tomorrowland, acquired a residency in Las Vegas and climbed to #7 in the annual DJ magazine ratings, the man from Amerongen can look back at 2013 as perhaps the first of many successful years in the business. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bek1y2uiQGA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2lmiGAuQjo
Honourable Mention Naughty Boy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3O1_3zBUKM8 Given the catchiness and longevity of 'La La La', it's impossible not to acknowledge the year that Shahid Khan, otherwise known as Naughty Boy, has experienced. With a #2 album in the UK and 3 top ten singles to his name, the world is his oyster going forward.
