Afrojack, aka Nick Van De Wall, has gone from strength to strength since starting his own label Wall Recordings back in 2007. In that short space of time the 22 year old has risen to the top of the electro house scene and has become one of Netherlands hottest DJs and producers. Like some his fellow countrymen Afrojack has broken out of the 'Dirty Dutch' scene and has excited big names in the mainroom house sphere, whether thats playing at David Guetta's F*** Me Im Famous party in Pacha, Ibiza or releasing 'Pacha on Acid' on Steve Angello's Size imprint, theres no question that Afrojack is dominating the world of dance in 2010.

It was impossible to escape Afrojack at WMC earlier this year, he has become regarded as a genius producer and embarked on a series of collaborations with international artists such as David Guetta, Diplo, Kid Cudi, Laidback Luke and Steve Angelo to name but a few. Tracks like 'Bangduck', 'Bungee' and Afrojack's production on Major Lazer's 'Pon Di Floor' have seen Nick commanding dancefloors across the World with his trademark bleepy electro house productions accompanied by huge basslines.

Afrojack teams up with Dutch vocal talent Eva Simons to create the monstorous 'Take Over Control'. It has all the traditional trademarks with a huge bleep infused chorus and pumping bassline but combined with progressive chords, strings and Eva's beautiful vocal hooks Afrojack look set to 'take over' the mainstream and is destined for crossover success.

Already tearing up dancefloors nationwide, 'Take Over Control' has received 5 Pete Tong R1 plays and has seen Afrojack host his own Essential mix as well as feature live on R1's weekend in Ibiza. Other support comes from Annie Mac, Mistajam, Steve Smart at Kiss, Andi Durrant at Galaxy amongst the usual suspects.

Dub legend Adam F steps up to remix duty taking the bull by the Dutch horn to create a haunting dubstep remake with huge effect. Ian Carey provides us with quality mainroom electro house with trance synths aplenty.

With huge interest and support from major labels stateside Afrojack is a quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with...

'Take Over Control' is released on Ministry of Sound 7th November 2010
