Steve Aoki

Steve Aoki wants to make music with Elon Musk according to an interview with the Dim Mak boss and EDM titan. 

Sitting down on the couch to talk shop and shoot the breeze for BuzzFeed's AM to DM live morning show, Aoki suggested that one of the world's foremost business innovators could be a great studio partner. 

"I would love to collaborate with Elon Musk," Aoki said. "At the end of the day it's not necessarily about, you know, I just need, like, ideas, creative flow, energy and then the kind of vibe off that." 

Steve Aoki's brand new pizza delivery company  was an instant hit when it launched in July, but he's not stopping there.

Pizzaoki, which currently has one store in Los Angeles, is primed for rapid expansion in the near future with at least five new locations opening later this year.

Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ is no longer the USA’s top-selling LP of all-time, having been usurped by legendary rockers, The Eagles. 

While the 1982 pop masterpiece retains the top spot globally, with a staggering 47million copies sold, in the States it only managed 33million. The Eagles, meanwhile, have now been confirmed as hitting 38million units with 1976's 'Their Greatest Hits'. 

Calvin Harris has a picture of Rod Stewart in the booth with him when he DJs, according to a video shared to Twitter by Steve Aoki. 

The revelation hit social media on Tuesday 14th August, with footage recorded by Aoki showing both him and fellow electronic superstar Harris, alongside the framed photo in question. 

Clearly impressed, or at least amused, Aoki wrote: "When u realize @calvinharris has a framed photo of Rod Stewart on his dj booth. Simply amazing." 

Forbes have shared their list of the World’s Highest-Paid DJs for 2018 with Scottish superstar Calvin Harris coming out on top once again.

Harris retains the top spot on the respected business magazine’s annual list for the sixth year in a row with estimated annual earnings of $48 million.

Dutch legend Tiesto has been knocked from second to third place year with his earnings of $33 million being trumped by U.S. EDM duo The Chainsmokers whopping $45.5 million.

Steve Aoki has opened his own pizza joint, aptly named Pizzaoki.

The American EDM star’s new restaurant opened for deliveries earlier this month and is set to open for dine-ins on the 1800 block of Washington Blvd in Los Angeles soon.

The Pizzaoki Instagram account has been active since May, whilst the Pizzaoki website states it's “coming soon”.

Secret Solstice 2018 has released a $1million ‘golden ticket’, the most expensive festival pass in the history of festivals. 

Steve Aoki has reportedly used a yet-to-be-titled collaboration with Hardwell as an intro track during recent live dates. First recorded during Aoki’s 11th February performance in Philadelphia, PA, few of the single’s details have been confirmed by either team.

“This is my new track with Hardwell!” exclaimed the polarizing dance music figure at the 2:10 mark of the live recording. Lacking further dialogue from the DJ/producer and any significant track vocal, the single’s title remains unknown. 

Secret Solstice has released its first wave of acts including Steve Aoki, Charlotte de Witte, Skream and more,  with the festival set to kick off from 21st to 24th June in Reykjavik, Iceland. 

Now in its fifth year, the festival will feature local and international artists including Fools Gold boss A-trak, Romanian minimal techno trio [a:rpia:r] (Petre Inspirescu, Raresh, Rhadoo) and legendary UK selector Artwork to name a few. 

Steve Aoki is set to be immortalised in wax next month, when the famous EDM DJ/producer’s likeness is added to Madame Tussauds’ Las Vegas museum. 

“This whole process has been super exciting so far, Madame Tussauds and I are both fun, outlandish, and all about delivering an unforgettable experience,” Aoki said.

“I can’t wait to see fans get behind the decks and have some fun with my first ever wax figure.”
