On July 25, EDM legend Steve Aoki and his wife Sasha welcomed their first child, marking a deeply emotional milestone shared in harmony with one of the couple’s most significant personal anniversaries. Their son affectionately nicknamed “Rocky77” entered the world on the day they celebrate their wedding anniversary, turning a day of remembrance into a celebration of new life. The DJ and producer naturally shared the news via Instagram, posting a touching photo of their newborn’s tiny feet complete with a hospital tag and expressing heartfelt joy with the words “we’re so in love with him already”


This arrival concluded a long-anticipated chapter in their lives. The pair first revealed they were expecting in January 2025 during a dramatic concert moment at Barasti Beach in Dubai. A stage cake was smashed, blue smoke and confetti erupted, and the DJ confirmed before the crowd that “we have a little boy” Aoki later described the reveal as "the most important cake of my life," and Sasha called the pregnancy their “biggest collaboration yet”


The couple’s public sharing of the journey has been personal, humorous, and affectionate. Sasha delighted followers with pregnancy posts that captured daily life and music‑filled joy in one clip she stood behind Steve in the DJ booth quipping “EDM = early development music” while in another she revealed her bump at Coachella with a sly “Be a housewife, they said. Didn’t realize I’d take it literally”


Their romance, having unfolded in public view since their marriage in Montenegro in July 2024, now extends into a new chapter of parenthood. Sasha Sofine, about 20 years Aoki’s junior, previously studied in Moscow and at Columbia University, and works in social media growth at Locals.org, bringing her own independent identity to the partnership


As new parents, Steve and Sasha confirmed how meaningful it is that their son arrived on their anniversary. They described Rocky’s birth as perfect timing and an auspicious beginning to a life they’re already madly in love with. The messaging underscored the emotional resonance: a couple’s anniversary no longer recalls vows alone it becomes a marker of legacy, of joined families, and of future story to craft.


Together, the couple’s shared social media presence reflects a synergy of partnership and authenticity. From playful teasing about baby‑bump selfies to linking major life events with music tour moments, they balance personal reflection and public life deftly. Their revelation strategy stays true to their brand, energetic, grounded, intimately relatable.


Professionally, Steve Aoki continues his global career with trademark theatricality crowd caking, boundary-crossing collaborations, headline-making sets while Sasha supports and participates in shared milestones with equal warmth. Their evolving family highlights continuity amid change: the same stage energy that thrilling audiences now gives way to quieter celebration at home.


The story of Rocky’s arrival ties into broader cultural experience as well. Fans watched his anticipation unfold from the cake smash in Dubai through the months of humorous updates on festival stages and social media. Now that he has arrived, the sense is that a global community built over years of music and presence joins in welcoming him.


This moment is more than celebrity announcement. It is the meeting of life, love, and performance in one frame. Aoki and Sasha’s deliberate embrace of parenthood feels not staged but heartfelt, marked by timing, symbolism, and joyful sincerity. For people who have followed Steve’s career from remix to arena mainstay, the personal milestone brings new meaning.


As they settle into parenthood, Steve’s reflections pivot toward legacy and balance, a shift echoed by Sasha’s pride in a journey shared with openness. Their collective approach to sharing both joy and musical creativity will no doubt infuse parenthood with intensity, humor, and new collaborative story beats.


This is, by all accounts, the start of a new era for both of them. When the music pauses and the applause fades, Steve and Sasha now begin the most profound composition of their lives. Rocky77’s entrance into the world signals a partnership strengthened by artistry, grounded in love, and poised to embrace every beat ahead.
