After laying waste to an incredible 55 cities across 60 dates on the North American leg of his Deadmeat Tour and bringing the UK and Germany to their knees last month, EDM’s original rock’n’roll superstar Steve Aoki continues his devastating ‘Wonderland’ album tour across Europe. No prizes for guessing who he’s handpicked to be his one-stop-shop for international publicity on the road – Get In of course!
Fans throughout Europe will soon be able to experience the full force of one of the most magnetic, original, engaging and out-and-out maverick headliners ever to grace global dance floors. Naturally, we’ll be with the Dim Mak head honcho every step of the way ensuring he spends some quality time with the very best media channels the continent has to offer.
Known as much for his spontaneous crowd-surfing and stage persona as he is for his music, Aoki is a seminal character for many, his Dim Mak label a beacon of ingenuity releasing tracks from Datsik, Infected Mushroom, Felix Cartel and Tiesto to The Kills, The Gossip, Klaxons, Bloc Party and more. Critical acclaim flooded in for his debut mix album ‘Pillowface and His Airplane Chronicles’ – now with his first artist album ‘Wonderland’, featuring guest vocals and musicians from LMFAO, Kid Cudi, Travis Barker, Will.i.am aka Zuper Blahq, Wynter Gordon, Rivers Cuomo, Lil Jon, Chiddy Bang, Lovefoxxx of CSS, Big John, former guitarist of punk band The Exploited, and more, fans are well and truly riled up for Steve’s incredible live performances on the ground.
