• Watch Real, Fake Steve Aoki Punk Stereosonic [WATCH]

    Steve Aoki has met his match. Photographer Jarrad Seng trolled Stereosonic Perth, Australia, by impersonating Steve Aoki and putting the video of his exploits online, which promptly went viral. Steve Aoki commented in a radio interview shortly thereafter that he had seen Seng in the crowd and was amused by the whole thing. The real Steve Aoki enjoyed the stunt so much he decided to invite Seng out to Stereosonic Melbourne to try and pull a prank together. The pair walked through the crowd as Seng pretended to be the real Steve posing for pictures with unsuspecting fans who apparently had not seen the previous prank video. Aoki pretended to be Seng, taking pictures of fake Steve with fans before removing his hood and sunglasses to reveal that the fans had been punked and taken a picture with an imposter Steve Aoki. Using the same hidden camera technique as done with the previous Seng attempt in Perth, the whole scene is documented as fans go from joy to bewilderment to sheer excitement, via "Beatport News." Some fans claimed to have seen the other prank video and were wiser to what was happening, but most fell right into the fake Steve trap. Seng even started an interview for the real Aoki, which fell apart when they reportedly heard Seng's Australian accent. They also try and get some DJ friends of Steve's — including Skrillex, who does not fall for it for one second, and then What So Not, who was totally baffled at the whole thing.
