Mochakk interrupted his Circoloco Ibiza performance last week when he saw someone in the audience needed immediate medical assistance, the DJ wrote on Instagram.
As revelers danced at Circoloco, a storied party series at the island’s DC-10 nightclub, the Brazilian house music star noticed people waving for help near a collapsed individual on the dancefloor. Footage shared by attendees on social media shows him frantically pleading for someone to tend to the man.
“There was someone passed out on the dance floor, people were waving to show and ask for help, no one was doing anything to get the guy off of the crowd and take him to the medical center,” Mochakk wrote on Instagram. “I’m not gonna keep playing knowing someone is potentially hurt in the middle of a packed crowd, people can die in these scenarios.”
His comment goes on to emphasize the risks of inaction by drawing comparisons to past tragedies: the 2022 death of a fan due to heat exposure at a Taylor Swift concert in Brazil and the disastrous 2021 crowd crush at Travis Scott’s Astroworld Festival in Houston.
Mochakk says he paused the music and instructed his videographer to intervene, enabling paramedics to reach the man safely. Only once the attendee was in medical hands did he resume playing.
