I'm pretty sure I've figured it out! Steve Aoki is the male Paris Hilton. Paris decided she'd become famous by spending her daddy's money and partying all the time, everyone knows that, and her looks didn't hurt, either. Steve Aoki is the son of the owner of Benihana, therefore grew up with lots of money. He wanted to be cool, so he played in screamo metal bands. However, this musical career didn't seem to work out very well, so he decided he'd use his daddy's money to start a record label and buy bands that he liked. Now he gets to dance on stage / "colaborate" with guys like The Bloody Beetroots and MSTRKRFT. And the guy didn't really start producing by himself until he signed all his favorite electro producers to his label, which makes me wonder if his solo remixes are really so solo (he is best buds with Bob Rifo, afterall). So, Paris used her daddy's money to make herself as sexy as she could; Steve used his daddy's money to make himself as cool as he could. It's a match made in heaven, they should get married and have The Cobrasnake photograph their wedding.

UPDATE: His sister is also a model and an actress. Forgot to mention that her phone book probably played a big role in his career as well (Thanks GuessWho?).
Hahaaaaha!! Awesome
ReplyDeleteSteve Aoki is a fucking dick.
ReplyDeleteDevon is responsible for him getting his connections, y'know with her being model and all. It's handy to be a DJ at these things.
His money meant shit until tell she gave him the address book.
That's a good point, I forgot about her.
ReplyDeleteHaha!

DiD YoU KnOw?
ReplyDeleteThat Dim Mak funds some of the "big" blogs? Which is a major conflict of interest if there ever was one.
How many times have you seen Dim Mak advertising on a blog? Think about it... ;-)
Actually, I know that one in particular puts up their advertisement for free:

These comments make for a fun read.
Fancy sounds are a bunch of faggots and they are on the payroll, despite the lies.
ReplyDeleteApes with Barrels,
ReplyDeleteYou might want to cite your sources of info.
As far as I know, Steve Aoki didn't use any of his father's money to start dim mak records. It was self made the the parties he held back in his college dorm room and his friend that got him started in DJ'ing.
I agree with Clinton Bowen. But I don't really mind steve aoki.

ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BQ13R0YweA
its from a Stve Aoki set list
This has made my day, Bastille you are actually totally right on a lot of the things. I produce and dj and recently got free tickets to see Aoki, now I saw him at Ultra 2, but this night was classic not only did he not mix worth the shit he played Warp 1.9 three times in one set. Then I totally caught him play a pre recording and when I got close and saw his computer screen it said JFK full mix.
ReplyDeleteInteresting night!
Great Act, full of Emotion on the MIC
This proved to me that I have a chance of making 18,000 dollars a night and still accomplish nothing but a buzz while playing jams off my Mac LOL
Paris Hilton is my absolutely gorgeous. I'm collecting her picture over years and truly she is the most beautiful model in the world. It really doesn't matter if she wear bikini, casual or also some fetish fashion as I surprisingly saw pictures on http://latexr.com/ - simply amazing woman!
ReplyDeleteThat last comment just cracked me the fuck up. Keep up the great work mate!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is he was real nice back in 1999 to book my band(s) in California and let us crash. Not to mention he hooked us up with a tour of the town and free Benihana meal. 15 of us. Say what you want, spoiled or not, at least he is being (quite) productive in this world. If you ask me, it just sounds like good old jealousy.
ReplyDeleteHe is A LOT more productive than Paris Hilton. LMAO
