He started playing the [[piano]] when he was four years old. When he was 13, he signed his first major record label and by the age of 14, he had begun DJing at reputable clubs across the Netherlands.<ref>http://www.iamhardwell.nl/biography/</ref> He often cited DJ and fellow [[Breda]] native [[Tiësto]] as his biggest inspiration and mentor. == Musical career == Hardwell's remixing debut came in 2006 when his version of [[The Underdog Project]]'s "[[Summer Jam (song)|Summer Jam]]" hit the clubs, then 2007 found him remixing the stadium [[techno]] act Scooter ("Lass Uns Tanzen") and collaborating with fellow DJ Greatski on the track "Never Knew Love" but it wasn't until two years later when Hardwell first gained recognition in 2009 for his [[mashup (music)|bootleg]] of "Show Me Love vs. Be".<ref>http://www.mtv.com/artists/hardwell/biography/</ref> The song is a [[mashup (music)|mashup]] of [[Robin S.]]'s "[[Show Me Love (Robin S. song)|Show Me Love]]" and the instrumental track "Be" by [[Steve Angello]] & [[Laidback Luke]].<ref>http://www.discogs.com/Steve-Angello-Laidback-Luke-Ft-Robin-S-Show-Me-Love/release/1769235</ref> In 2010, Hardwell formed his own [[record label]], [[Revealed Recordings]]. Soon after the launch, Hardwell started the release of ''Hardwell presents Revealed'', a [[compilation album]] released anually which featured some of the label's biggest tracks of that year. In March 2011, Hardwell launched his own [[radio show]] and [[podcast]], ''Hardwell On Air''. It is currently being broadcast on various international radio stations. Additionally, the podcast has a spot on [[iTunes]]' Top 10 Podcasts in several countries.<ref>{{cite web|title = Hardwell on Air Bio|url=http://www.djhardwell.com/biography|accessdate=2013-12-17}}</ref> His collaboration single with Tiësto, "Zero 76," was one of the biggest club tracks of that year and his first single to chart at #1 on [[Beatport]] and on the American iTunes dance chart. In addition to multiple other hits released by Hardwell in 2011, including "Encoded" and "Cobra," Hardwell entered ''[[DJ Magazine]]'''s Top 100 DJs annual poll at #24.<ref>{{cite web|url = http://djhardwell.com/biography|title=Hardwell Biography & History|accessdate=2013-12-17}}</ref> In 2012, Hardwell's biggest track was the solo-original known as “Spaceman,” which has seen more [[DJ mix|sets]], [[mashup (music)|bootlegs]], and [[remixes]] than any of his previous releases. In July of that same year, he went on to perform at the [[main stage]] of [[Tomorrowland (festival)|Tomorrowland]] and with over 19 million views, it is the most watched [[DJ mix|live DJ set]] on [[YouTube]] to date. It was dubbed by many as a contender for the best set of the year. Alongside other artists such as [[Alesso]], [[Nicky Romero]], [[Deniz Koyu]] and [[R3hab]], Hardwell was named an [[electronic dance music|EDM]] artist to watch in 2012 by [[MTV]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Stewart |first=Adam |url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1677064/edm-rookies-2012.jhtml |title=EDM Great To Watch In 2012 - Music, Celebrity, Artist News. |publisher=MTV.com |date=2012-01-11 |accessdate=2013-04-17}}</ref> He then placed at #6 on ''DJ Magazine'''s Top 100 DJs annual poll for 2012. Hardwell kicked off 2013 with a nationwide "Hardwell presents Revealed: [[Canada|Canadian]] Bus Tour," joined by fellow DJs Dyro and Dannic. This was then followed with a nationwide "Go Hardwell Or Go Home" tour that took place in venues across the [[United States]]. In March 2013, having featured for the first time on the [[main stage]] of [[Ultra Music Festival]] only one year prior in 2012, he returned to the [[Miami]] event. Hardwell’s set broke all records for the most watched Ultra [[Streaming Media|live broadcast]] with over 80,000 people watching his [[DJ mix|set]] online through the [[live stream]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://music.yahoo.com/blogs/stop-the-presses/hardwell-world-1-dj-191004997.html|title=Hardwell Is The World's #1 DJ|publisher=Yahoo Music|accessdate=2013-12-17}}</ref> The performance currently holds over 19 million views on [[YouTube]]. In April 2013, Hardwell launched his "I Am Hardwell" world tour. The first phase of the tour saw sold-out shows in [[Jakarta]], [[Singapore]], [[Bangalore]], [[Mumbai]], [[Lisbon]], and [[London]] with further venues coming up. Following on from his 2012 [[Tomorrowland (festival)|Tomorrowland]] performance, he returned to the [[main stage]] of the [[music festival]] in 2013. This time the live set gained a million views on YouTube in just several days and has been viewed over 17 million times to date. During [[Amsterdam dance event|ADE]] in October 2013, Hardwell held the [[world premiere]] of his ''I Am Hardwell'' [[documentary]] at the [[Tuschinski]] cinema in [[Amsterdam]].
