    Boothaus launches podcast series with Steve Aoki

    Kicking-off with Steve Aoki, the initial episode will provide listeners a deeper insight into the dance music mogul known for high-octane music and on-stage theatrics.  With exciting plans for upcoming virtual festival appearances, Steve Aoki explains how he wants to make a track with Elon Musk, and how his upcoming album Neon Future IV is set to feature a total of 27 tracks. Aoki also spoke about using his voice as an artist and how he was a subject to racism growing up as an Asian kid in America. 

    “I grew up in a very conservative area, where racism really flourished and everyone is white.  If you are not part of the 96% whites, racism can happen and I thought — that’s just how it is. I learned a lot about having a voice to speak out about injustice.”
