Hardwell named No. 1 DJ

Hardwell rose up the ranks over the past year through incessant marketing, a radio show and a live set that is a highlight at every festival and lineup to become the world's number one DJ, according to DJ Mag. Ranked last year at number six, the dutch sensation hit the top spot in 2013 against stark competition from the likes of Avicii and Armiin Van Buren. I had the chance to catch him while covering Electric Daisy Carnival in Joliet this past May, check out the interview below via The Frontliner.

AfroJack: "The Spark"

Afrojack is currently in the lab cooking up his debut album, due out in early 2014. To stoke the flames of excitement for the project, DJ Nick van de Wall released "The Spark" via Pete Tong at BBC Radio 1 on September 27. While you can listen to the song below, apparently it doesn't come available for download until October 11 in the U.S. British fans have to wait until November. Anyway, check out the latest from the Dutch producer below.
