He is well known for his collaboration with Avicii on the track “I Could Be the One”. The single debuted at Number 1 on the UK Dance Chart, ahead of Baauer’s “Harlem Shake”. The single was both Avicii and Nicky Romero's brush with the Number 1 slot in the UK. It also came in at Number 1 on the Billboard US Hot Dance Club Songs.
Romero began recording tracks after finishing his final semester, while he was working as a bartender. He broke out with his early track “Funktion One”, which gained him the attention of Dutch DJ and producer Madskillz, who signed him to his label Azucar.
Before long, he was contacted by Ministry of Sound to do some remixes on their label and spun a bootleg remix of the David Guetta track “When Love Takes Over”, which went viral and drew the attention of Guetta himself. Since then the two have collaborated on the tracks “Metropolis” and “Wild One Two” and a residency on the A-list at Guetta’s famed FMIF club night at Pacha/Ushuaia Ibiza.
Romero is the wunderkind of EDM, and has made an international name for himself with his high-profile remixes, as well as putting out the viral single ‘Toulouse’ and the track “Feet On The Ground” featuring vocals from the Dutch singer Anouk. He’s been a highlight at major international festivals including Ultra Music Festival, Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas, Sensation White and Tomorrowland.
As well as David Guetta and Avicii, he’s rubbed shoulders with EDM powerhouses Armand Van Helden, Hardwell, Calvin Harris, Tiësto and Fedde Le Grand and is the rising star of contemporary house music.

He could be the one for you... and if you've ever seen the 25-year old play a live set, you will know that he most certainly is.
Since the start of 2013, the popularity of Dutch-born DJ Nicky Romero has sky-rocketed as the music industry started to take notice of his productions. Following the release of the single Toulouse, he entered the top 20 of DJ Mag's top 100 DJ's and has never looked back since, releasing 'I Could Be The One' in the same year which went double platinum. He is currently working an a new album, a sign that you'll be hearing a lot of new material at upcoming sets. Nicky certainly doesn't hold back with elaborate decoration when it comes to live set. At TomorrowLand 2014 in July, there were smoke machines and confetti bursting from the stage in time with the drops whilst backing dancers on trampolines bounced around the stage. The crowd was a vibrant, bobbing sea of colour, responding immediately to Nicky's catchphrase of the day 'put your hands up'!
It was certainly an exhibition of unbelievable mixing with strong dance anthems played throughout, but there were some spine-tingling moments, including when Nicky dropped 'Ghost', 'Latch' and 'Like Home' especially after high-tempo beats, having a calming and almost emotional effect - a feeling you can only understand by seeing the man live.

Nick Rotteveel better known by his stage name Nicky Romero, is a Dutch DJ and music producer and is one of the Netherlands most celebrated electro artists. Having not yet released a studio album, the DJ has achieved global success with a selection of hit singles and remixes for some of the industry's most acclaimed names.
It was no surprise the crowd gathered at his set at Tomorrowland 2014 is gargantuan and the waves of cheers were great example of the anticipation before Nicky eventually takes to the decks beneath the ominous pagan sun. The lights instantly illuminates the stage and the decks and complex strobes and lasers shine down onto the crowd who are ready to dance all night.
Luckily Romero is more than happy to oblige with this request as he delivers the hits in the form of 'Like Home' and 'Legacy' which he expertly merges into Calvin Harris's 'I Need Your Love' and Sia's 'Titanium'. The big finale is saved for his collaborative international smash with Avicii, 'I Could Be the One', the DJ extends the track and keeps the crowd jumping and dancing for a good ten minutes before smoke and light signal the end much to their disappointment.

Disappointed. Volt & State were awesome. Stadiumx were pretty good, but Nicky was only on for a fraction of the time (seemed like about 45 minutes). Didn't seem to really care too much about the set.
