whose latest platinum album, the worldwide hit “One Love” is currently
dominating the European charts and airwaves with its blend of electronic
music and the greatest urban vocalists and having already produced two
number 1 singles since its release in August, will be the basis for three
downloadable mixes in DJ Hero

the art up to the masses. Players who have never touched decks will be able
to easily get the authentic DJ experience and feel the euphoria of playing
to an audience,” commented David Guetta.
