Aoki Tip #3: Bring Your Friends
The way DJ culture glorifies the individual means that there are a lot of egomaniacal DJ's, many of whom do not enjoy sharing the stage or the evening with others who might steal their thunder. But Steve Aoki's been behind some of the best collaborative party efforts out there, from the killer lineups at Dim Mak Studios to the "what-might-have-been" pairing with Blue Man Group that ended up being a victim of the high winds at this year's EDC. Bringing 24-hour party pro and
master winemaker Lil Jon into the mix is the kind of pro move we can appreciate.
