Electric Zoo a cakewalk for electro star Steve Aoki
There may be no better showman in electronic dance music than Steve Aoki, the L.A.-based electro house producer.
Not content to stand behind the controllers and just select music, Aoki’s live shows include the prerequisite champagne spraying, a ride on an inflatable raft kept aloft by the audience (the next generation of crowd surfing, essentially) and, maybe the oddest Aoki tradition, a cake spiked on a more-than-willing audience member.
amNewYork caught up with Aoki, who called in from Italy, one of more than 250 stops in 2013 for the world-traveling DJ, to chat about his upcoming set at Electric Zoo on Randall’s Island on Sunday, his new album due out in 2014 and the culinary arts.
