It would be a safe bet to say the David Guetta is one of the commercial pop world's most sought after producers, perhaps even overtaking the success of the Lady Gaga and Nicole Scherzinger favoured RedOne. It's quite possible this is because Guetta has incorporated a great deal of that hugely successful producer's sounds into his own, whilst never straying too far from his initial Eurodance roots...

Summary: Nothing but the beat, when nothing at all would have been far more sufficient I suppose we can blame the explosion in house music that occurred at the turn of the century for allowing David Guetta to stick his foot in the door...

Most U.S. audiences' first encounter with French DJ David Guetta came via his production work on Black Eyed Peas' ubiquitous 2009 single "I Gotta Feeling," a song whose influence has since rippled out through the pop landscape...

When he first started gaining a rep for his 'Fuck Me I'm Famous' club nights, I doubt David Guetta realised to what extent that title would prophesise his coming career. He's undoubtedly Europe's biggest DJ, probably the world's biggest (Norman Cook who?) and his commercial clout only continues to grow. Guetta has dominated the charts over the last two years with electro-house anthems featuring catchy star vocals from some of the biggest US stars from the spheres of pop and R'n'B...

Of all the vocal performances on Nothing but the Beat, French DJ/producer superstar David Guetta's fifth outing, there are only two that really stand out, the others surrendering too much to the when-love-takes-over-isms of Guetta's past and cliché disco-diva inclinations. One is Usher's Without You, a small masterpiece of minor chord progression, great emotive singing and dance exhilaration...

Artists from 50 Cent to Rihanna have rung his studio bell.

Remember when Sideshow Bob stepped on a rake and got thwacked in the face with the handle...and then did it again, and again, and again? And then the camera widened out and showed him surrounded by about 20 more rakes? And then he stepped on another rake? And another? And another? And then the show cut to the inside of the Simpson's Witness Protection-provided houseboat and you heard the sound of Sideshow Bob stepping on another rake...

Max Martin and Dr. Luke ?seduce pop haters with Britneys and Katys Euro-disco chart-toppers, but David Guetta wants to bludgeon cynics into submission. The French DJs first album since becoming the biggest party-starter on the planet is a 12-track hit parade of monster club ?anthems -- turning such egos as will.i.am, Usher, and Nicki Minaj into unrecognizable studio playthings, particularly during Minajs wild diva turn on "Where Them Girls At...
