Dim Mak head honcho and big fat party animal Steve Aoki will be headbanging his way to Australia this November, with the producer announced as a headline act for MTV Beats & East festival.
Returning for its second year, MTV Beats & Eats festival previously announced Savage, Paces & Maala for their soiree hitting Stuart Park in Wollongong come November 26. Now, they’ve added considerable international weight with the addition of Steve Aoki.
Known for his abrasive approach to electro, crowd-surfing on an inflatable raft and throwing cake at people at his shows, Mr. Aoki has carved a name for himself as an EDM madman whose catalogue comes alive in his relentless live shows. Meanwhile, his Dim Mak imprint has been an influential tastemaker in the world of dance, housing releases from The Bloody Beetroots, MSTRKRFT, Bloc Party, Keys N Krates and more.
If it wasn’t evident by the name, MTV Beats & Eats also promises plenty of food – and while the festival only runs for a single day, there’s a camping option available which includes bike hire and use of a tennis court. Fuckin’ score! Get your tickets to the festival here, while we’re sure that Aoki will be announcing more shows across Australia soon:
