Skrillex played a show in Shanghai 24 hours ago, and EDM Twitter is dragging him for… standing on the CDJs and mixer? Apparently. The video on Skrillex’s own Instagram story shows him hopping up on the decks — literally.
EDM Twitter seems to be divided over the issue. Half says Skrillex has been doing this for so long so let him do whatever he wants / he’s earned it. The other half says this is obviously irresponsible behavior and inconsiderate of the club and its property.

Pioneer DJ responded to the video, “Don’t try this at home (or in the club, really).”
