Skipping the usual apprenticeship in the clubs or on indie labels, Calvin Harris began posting homemade solo recordings to his MySpace page. He was noticed by an A&R representative from EMI and signed to the label in 2006. Following a pair of successful singles, "Vegas" and "Acceptable in the 80s," Harris released his debut album, I Created Disco, in 2007. Along with his work as a solo artist, Harris became an in-demand remixer -- working on singles by Jamiroquai, Groove Armada, All Saints, and CSS -- and he wrote and produced a song for Kylie Minogue's 2007 album. His second album, Ready for the Weekend, appeared in 2009 and featured two singles that went to number one in the U.K. ~ Stewart Mason
