Steve Aoki on early DJ gigs: “I was horrible”

DJ and musician Steve Aoki takes us back to his days as a young and less-than-stellar DJ: Spending $100 to rent equipment for a four-hour set that only paid $50. Aoki says he “sucked back then” but used these early gigs to learn to beat match and take his first steps into the industry.

“DJ”

[@paulies5407]

Not hard to DJ. You press play and wave your hands around like an idiot.

[@jebkush1052]

You're describing a lame DJ. A good DJ is mixing live, changing the EQ, and is in tune with the crowd.
