The Hakkasan experience from the DJs perspective

Now that Tiesto, Calvin Harris, and Steve Aoki are confirmed as the first DJ residents for Hakkasan in Las Vegas, what will it be like for these DJs as they step into the DJ booth for the first time? Neil Moffitt, the founder and CEO of Angel Management Group, operators of Hakkasan had this to say:

​“Imagine if you’re the DJ: When the downstairs and upstairs are full and it’s got intensity, there’s nothing like it. It makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck,” Moffitt says. “It’s not like walking in a sea of heads; it’s like being in a stadium. When you see someone score a touchdown, he looks up at the coliseum like he’s a god. That’s the DJ’s mentality.”
