The world’s top DJs and producers, some of which have played in Kuala Lumpur before in festivals and clubs, are rallying their thoughts and condolences following Malaysia Airlines’ tragic #MH17 incident. Most uttered shock and sheer disbelief over the news while others readily offered prayers and support.

Dutch dance music maestro and DJ Mag’s #1 DJ for 5 non consecutive years previously, Armin van Buuren, was one of the first to reach out via his Twitter account upon hearing the news.

Completely in shock reading the news about flight #MH17. Thoughts and prayers go out to families and friends … http://t.co/2rxItx39CQ

— Armin van Buuren (@arminvanbuuren) July 17, 2014

Armin van Buuren’s cousin, also co-host for the “A State of Trance” (ASOT) radio show and fellow DJ/producer, Ruben de Ronde shared this heart-wrenching sentiment:

My heart cries with the things that are happening in the world right now.. Why can’t people just get along #peaceplease

— Ruben de Ronde (@rubenderonde) July 18, 2014

Swedish producer Eric Prydz, on the other hand, who is known for his fear of flying, responded to fellow American producer Thomas Pentz aka diplo’s tweet:

“@diplo: Everytime there’s a plane crash anywhere in the world my mom texts me and asks if I was on it”<< mine doesn’t .. — Eric Prydz (@ericprydz) July 17, 2014

Orjan Nilsen, who was just here slightly more than a month ago for his set at Zouk Club Kuala Lumpur, tweeted his thoughts:

My God.. 🙁 All my thoughts are with the loved ones of those on board the Air Malaysia plane.. HORRIBLE!! 🙁

— Ørjan Nilsen (@orjan_nilsen) July 17, 2014

DJ Carnage, who also made a stop in Malaysia to play at Zouk Club Kuala Lumpur a month ago tweeted his speechlessness:

Wow #prayformalaysia — THOTTIE PIPPEN (@djcarnage) July 17, 2014

Young Dutch DJ/producer, 25-year-old Nicky Romero conveyed utter disbelief in response to the news of the crash:

OMFG I CANT believe some country shot down a Boeing 777 of Malaysia airlines … Is this real life? — Nicky Romero (@nickyromero) July 17, 2014

#prayforMalaysia — Nicky Romero (@nickyromero) July 17, 2014

Doorn Records’ Sander van Doorn offered his support to the families and friends of the #MH17 passengers:

Unreal situation in Ukraine.. My thoughts go out to the families & friends of the passengers of #MH17 — Sander van Doorn (@SandervanDoorn) July 17, 2014

The formidable Swedish DJ and electronic dance music producer Sebastian Ingrosso, who was once part of the Swedish House Mafia trio, posted the following on his Twitter account:

My thoughts & prayers are with the passengers on Malaysian Airlines #MH17, their families & loved ones — INGROSSO (@Ingrosso) July 17, 2014

Sidney Samson, famed for his “Riverside” track, is no stranger to Malaysia as he has been here a couple of times. He posted up the following tweet as soon as he heard the news:

Really terrible news about the Malaysian airplane crash. How can something like this happen.

— Sidney Samson (@sidneysamson) July 17, 2014

Last but not least, we also heard from Afrojack, who was just here in December last year to play for Thirst 2013 in Sepang:

All our thoughts right now go out to everyone aboard the crashed Malaysian Airlines plane, and their families

— Afrojack (@djafrojack) July 17, 2014
