Cakes in faces, bottles of Grey Goose, inflatable rafts and confetti cannons are just some of the things fans around the world have come to expect at a Steve Aoki show. We’re not sure what goodies he’ll bring for his performance at Sunset Music Festival, but what we do know is that the best way to see Steve is in person. So, have you bought your tickets yet?
Steve Aoki first started DJing under the moniker Kid Millionaire when he was a student at the University of California in Santa Barbara. There, Steve discovered his entrepreneurial spirit and began producing records and hosting concerts in his living room, calling the makeshift venue, the Pickle Patch. In 1996, now in his early 20s, Steve created the now world famous label Dim Mak Records, and 17 years later, he’s still partying strong.
Steve’s role as a producer has seen tracks like “I’m In The House” and “No Beef” have success on charts around the world. His work as a remixer spans from names like the Jackson 5, Lenny Kravitz, Kanye West, Eminem and Snoop Dogg. And with his knack for collaboration, he has worked artists like Kid Cudi, will.i.am, Afrojack, and Armand Van Helden. His label Dim Mak has hosted music by a variety of artists such as Dada Life, Zeds Dead, Datsik, and Tiësto, but is also credited for launching the careers of MSTRKRFT and Bloc Party, just to name a few.
Steve Aoki’s talents extend past music as was as his list of business ventures includes a clothing line, two restaurants and more recently, his own pair of headphones for SOL Repupublic. We’re sure you’ll see him don those headphones when he takes the stage at this year’s Sunset Music Festival. Buy your tickets today to get in on the cake-rafting good time!
