Deejay News by Miss Ess Jay: *Hot property* Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike

"Belgian brothers Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike have come a very long way in a very short time. In just two years, they’ve bypassed the usual steps to making it big by proving they have star quality in everything they do. They are sought after producers, remixers to the A-list elite and number 1 hit makers. The accolades they’ve clocked up within this relatively short time are equal to those some DJ stalwarts amass during a lifetime!

In 2009 their remix of Dave Lambert’s ‘Work That Body’ gathered global attention and sparked the interest of label boss Axwell, who immediately commissioned them for Abel Ramos’ ‘Rotterdam City of Love’. The success that came with this remix topped every major download chart in the world, and with this, the request came flooding in. Everyone from Tiesto to Snoop Dogg fell under the spell of Dimitri and Mike, and their interpretation of Swedish House Mafia’s ‘Leave The World Behind’ became the soundtrack of Ibiza’s summer of 2009, as the Swedes relentlessly hammered it every week at their Pacha residency. This led to Sebastian Ingrosso name checking them as ‘breakthrough producers of the year’ in DJ Mag.

The burgeoning duo is also highly accomplished producers with a string of top-flight results to their name. They scored a number one hit in Belgium with ‘Liquid Skies’, and their version of ‘Pump Up The Jam’ with Technotronic on Refune was one of the most heavily supported tracks of the year. In 2010, Dimitri, Mike and Dada Life produced the smash single ‘Tomorrow’, which became the anthem for Belgian festival Tomorrowland, and sparked a flourishing relationship with organizers ID&T. More recently, Dimitri and Mike collaborated with Axwell for a remix of David Tort’s ‘One Look’. The track immediately became a worldwide dance-floor killer and was a huge success during Miami’s 2011 Music Week.

The future is looking very bright for the brothers, with a tour schedule that’s beginning to read like the departure board of JFK. Remixes and releases are lined up to be released on labels like Size, Dim Mak, Subliminal and Axtone; collaborations with some really big names are already underway and a debut album is in the pipeline before the end of this year."
