Afrojack, also known as Nick van de Wall, is known for his upbeat house music that makes the crowd go crazy. Just this past week, it was announced that Afrojack, along with Robin Thicke and Imagine Dragons, is going to perform at the 2013 MTV Europe Music Awards. This is big news for the EDM world, because DJ's like him don't always get the chance to perform at any major music award ceremony. Afrojack deserves it, however, due to his heart for not only music, but fans as well. On Twitter, you can find Afrojack tweeting inspirational messages to his fans, telling them to stay true to their goals and never give up no matter what obstacles may reach them. Tweets like that from famous DJ's are important, now a days, as thousands of fans look up to people like him. It's those little messages that can turn lives around.

This image is from Ultra Music Festival 2012, during Afrojack's set. It was the first day of my first music festival, and I tried to capture the craziness in an image. As that is nearly impossible, I was pretty proud of the outcome. To this day, whenever I look at this image the song 'No Beef' by Steve Aoki and Afrojack starts playing in my head.
