Calvin Harris’ debut album was released in June 2007 under the title “I Created Disco”. The effort gathered fans for Harris with the uptempo electronic tracks like “Vegas” and “The Girls”. The album reached number eight on the U.K. Albums chart with sales of more than 100,000 copies. Harris then took some time to work on Kylie Minogue’s “X” album, producing two of the tracks. “Ready for the Weekend” was completed for release in August 2009. The lead single “I’m Not Alone” went straight to number one on U.K. Singles chart. In support of his second album, Harris embarked on U.K. and U.S. tours throughout the second half of 2009. His single “Dance wiv Me” was nominated as Best British Single at 2009 BRIT Awards. He was also later nominated for Best British Male at the 2010 BRIT Awards but lost it to Dizzee Rascal. In July 2010, Harris released a mixtape titled “L.E.D. Festival” which was available for free a limited amount of time. Later in 2011, he hit the road as the supporting act of Rihanna in the European leg of her Loud Tour. In June 2011, Harris released “Bounce” as the first single of his third studio album. It was followed by “Feel So Close” that became Harris’ first solo entry on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S., peaking at number twelve. For the new album, Harris collaborated with the likes of Ellie Goulding, Ne-Yo, Rihanna, Kelis and Florence Welch. “Feel So Close” won Best ElectronicVideo at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards where he was made the house DJ.
