Moby turned down an offer to DJ at one of Donald Trump's inaugural balls

"I DJ for you and you release your tax returns"

Moby hasn't shied away from airing his views on Donald Trump in the past and he's laid into the US president-elect once again.

One optimistic booking agent asked the New Yorker whether he'd play at one of Trump's inaugural balls and, true to form, he responded in scything fashion.

He wrote on Instagram: "Hahahahaha, I was just asked by a booking agent if I would consider DJing at one of the inaugural balls for #Trump. Hahahahaha, wait, hahahahaha, really?

"I guess I'd DJ at an inaugural ball if, as payment, #Trump released his tax returns."

If he did play, he said he'd play Public Enemy and Stockhausen remixes "to entertain the Republicans".

We doubt Trump will be releasing his tax returns, but Moby made a playlist regardless. Top marks for the inclusion of Green Day's 'American Idiot'.
