Dimitri Vegas and his younger brother Like Mike started their DJ career when they were 14-15 years old. In the beginning, they performed in smaller nightclubs and were DJs on BeatFM radio. Dimitri then left Flanders and began a European tour. He lived in Mallorca, Halkidiki, Greece, and then moved to Ibiza in 2003, where he performed in the biggest nightclubs. After Mallorca, he moved to the Canary Islands, and from there to the Greek city of Zante. In the fall of 2006, he moved back to Belgium and started working with his younger brother. Their 2008 remix of "Work That Body" caught the attention of Axwell, who commissioned them to remix the song "Rotterdam City of Love" by Abel Ramos.
