Tiesto Teams With (RED) For Global EDM Event On World AIDS Day

Tiesto continues to use his status as one of the most successful and recognizable DJ’s for good. This time he is teaming up with (RED) to become the face for a global event on World AIDS Day (Dec. 1, 2012)!

Tiesto will be recruiting A-list EDM artists to raise awareness over the elimination and transmission of HIV from mothers to their babies by 2015. Tiesto will release a custom (RED) playlist exclusively through iTunes later this month.

(RED) CEO Deborah Dugan tells Billboard.biz :

“Having Tiesto engage his strong following to help (RED) deliver an AIDS-free generation is a dream true for us. This is just the kind of firepower we need to bring the world’s attention to the fact that we can end AIDS; a notion that was considered virtually impossible a decade ago.”
