Nicky Romero

Nick Rotteveel, born in Amerongen in 1989, came to production through drums and was releasing on Spinnin’ and Toolroom by his early twenties.

The video for “Toulouse” went viral in early 2012, and “I Could Be the One”, made with Avicii, entered the UK chart at number one in February 2013.

The production work runs deeper than the singles suggest: he co-produced “Right Now”, with David Guetta, on Rihanna’s Unapologetic in 2012, and has written and produced for other people throughout.

He founded Protocol Recordings in May 2012 and runs its radio show, and the label has become a route in for younger producers in the same way Size and Refune were for his own generation. His sets stay on the melodic, progressive side of big room rather than chasing whatever is hardest that year.

We are not tracking a Vegas date for him at the moment, which for a name this size usually means one has not been announced rather than that he has stopped coming.
