December 2, 2011 (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) - Afrojack, one of the world's most in demand producers and DJ's, has been honored by The Recording Academy of America who have nominated the superstar for his second Grammy Award.
Afrojack is nominated as 'Best Remixer' for his work on Leona Lewis' song 'Collide'. The remix, which was released last July on J Records, became an instant sensation and is still riding a wave of success in clubs and through radio airplay across the globe.
When given the news yesterday, an elated Afrojack had this to say:
"I can’t believe the news!! To be nominated again is incredible! This is a real honour. Thank YOU!!" – Afrojack
Afrojack was nominated (and subsequently won) his first Grammy in the same category this past February for his and David Guetta's remix of Madonna's 'Revolver'.

'Nothing But The Beat' by David Guetta, which is up for 'Best Electronica Album' (Afrojack is a co-producer on the songs; 'Titanium', 'Lunar', 'The Future' and 'I Just Wanna').
