Tommy Lee & DJ Aero

As DJs and producers, Tommy Lee & DJ Aero’s sound is dirty, filthy, nasty electro-house; and since their musical tastes are not constrained to one genre, the duo often veers into techno, progressive, breakbeat and even hip-hop territory. It is one thing to play the same set list of rock songs to stadiums filled with adoring, expectant fans; it’s entirely another to walk into a swarming nightclub crammed with judgmental trainspotters, read the crowd correctly, and make people dance. Ask any professional DJ and he will tell you that the art of reading a room is anything but easy to master.
Although legions of MÖTLEY CRÜE fans may not realize it, Lee has always been a closet dance music fan. DJ Aero meanwhile, rose from the ashes of Los Angeles’ early-90’s rave scene as a hip-hop turntablist. Growing up in Victorville (approximately 80 miles north of L.A.), the young talent wholeheartedly embraced L.A.’s then-thriving underground rave culture and threw himself into the music before becoming a member of the West Coast turntablist crew, The Heavyweights, a collective featuring DJs for Snoop Dogg, Everlast, Korn and Dilated Peoples. Tommy Lee & DJ Aero started DJing together immediately, and by 2004, they were known to show up to clubs and throw down a few records at their own afterparties. From 2007 through 2009, a relentless schedule of DJ dates saw Tommy Lee & DJ Aero spinning at world-class clubs and festivals around the globe under their Electro Mayhem banner. They have played at Pacha (New York), Guvernment (Toronto), Stereo (Montreal), Mansion and Cameo (Miami), Bliss (New Jersey) and many other places around the world.
