ULTRA MUSIC IN CONJUNCTION WITH DIM MAK RELEASE
“LADI DADI (PART II)”
BY STEVE AOKI FEATURING WYNTER GORDON
TODAY, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 13
REMIX OF TRACK FEATURED ON STEVE AOKI’S
‘WONDERLAND’ ALBUM DUE JANUARY 17
Just in time to spice up any holiday party, Ultra Music in conjunction with Dim Mak will unleash today, Tuesday, December 13, “Ladi Dadi (Part II)” from STEVE AOKI featuring Wynter Gordon. This club dub remix is the prequel to “Ladi Dadi,” an original track from AOKI’s WONDERLAND album due out January 17. Check out a teaser track with AOKI at http://youtu.be/Xpe1Al0GtXk.
Featuring the vocals of American pop-dance singer/songwriter Wynter Gordon, “Ladi Dadi (Part II)” is a blazing dance floor track. Says AOKI, “This is the club version of my single ‘Ladi Dadi’ featuring Wynter Gordon. I wrote a whole new dubstep drop that is dirty and simply nutty. Starts off with the four on the floor leading you into the heavy bass chorus then right into the vocal hook and does it all over again. ‘Ladi Dadi (Part II)’ is one of my secret weapons in the past months. Hope you love it!”
Look for the album version of “Ladi Dadi” to be released as a single in early 2012.
“Ladi Dadi (Part II)” is now available at:

About Steve Aoki:
STEVE AOKI broke bands such as Bloc Party, The Bloody Beetroots, Klaxons and The Gossip through deftly marketed single and full-length releases on his Dim Mak label, which he began in 1996 and now has over 250 releases. Those releases often dovetailed into performances at his weekly Dim Mak nights including Dim Mak studios (still going strong every Tuesday night in the heart of Hollywood). As a label owner and shrewd curator of talent from around the world, those club nights have hosted the debut U.S. performances of hundreds of acts over the last decade from Lady Gaga to Ed Banger Records & Justice, Ke$ha, Skrillex, Kid Cudi, Kaiser Chiefs, No Age to Boys Noize. AOKI’s become a force of nature who has helped turn underground house, electro and harder-edged EDM with rap and rock leanings into the phenomena it is today: regularly pulling in 150,000+ fans at events such as Las Vegas’ Electric Daisy Carnival and the debut of the IDentity national electronic touring festival. AOKI’s punk roots go back to the art of the house party, when he was just a student at UCSB and was already booking bands such as The Rapture, !!!, Jimmy Eat World, Hot Water Music and At the Drive-In at his Pickle Patch bash and forging relationships with big names that would end up serving him well in the future (he met Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo at a secret show in college). Now, AOKI is readying the next stage of his incredible music career with his first proper full-length release with WONDERLAND, bringing a lifetime’s worth of passion for bands, DJs and artists of all stripes he has met and/or worked with over the past two decades to the forefront.
