His 2010 entry into the poll at number 19 was the highest new entry of that year's list. Currently, he is ranked at number 9 on the DJ Mag Top 100 DJ's of 2012. Afrojack's song "Take Over Control," which features Dutch singer Eva Simons, charted in 10 different countries. In July 2010, Afrojack created an Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1. He released Lost & Found December 22, 2010. In 2011, he was featured on Pitbull's No. 1 hit single "Give Me Everything" along with Ne-Yo and Nayer.
