A lot of people see electronic music as a flavor of the week, but it can be more than that - has to be more than that. Kaskade electronicflavorlot Change image and share on social
I think how Chicago plays a role in my life - it had such a role in my youth and the decisions that I made as a kid and formulated who I am as an artist early on. Kaskade artistchicagodecision Change image and share on social
It's interesting: in the late '80s, there was this really random mix of new wave, industrial, and these early house records. And a lot of it was coming out of Chicago because of Wax Trax! So I always visited Wax Trax Records. Kaskade 80schicagocome share on social
I think that most people who hire me to do a remix just want it to work in a nightclub, whereas when I'm writing my own album, I don't have to worry so much about 2 A.M. Kaskade albumhirenightclub Change image and share on social
The art of DJing is sharing music with one another... The technology's definitely taking it into a new direction to where it's really becoming performance-based. Kaskade artbasedirection Change image and share on social
If you listen to a Deadmau5 record or a Skrillex record, I really enjoy that stuff because, as aggressive sounding as the Skrillex records are, they're still musical, and that's why they have such a broad appeal. Kaskade aggressiveappealbroad share on social
Blending tracks and weaving and manipulating prerecorded music to create this mood, some people do it much better than others. Kaskade blendcreatemanipulate Change image and share on social
I'm more of an artist and a songwriter than I am a DJ. That word seems a little bit - well, it doesn't really describe what I do. Kaskade artistbitedescribe Change image and share on social
When I can control my own show, I want the price to be affordable so fans can actually see me. It's a challenge because I have to do a lot of navigating to make the production stellar but do it on a realistic budget. Kaskade affordablebudgetchallenge share on social
It's weird, when I go back to San Francisco, the few times that I've done shows there since leaving, it still feels like I live there. It's very, very strange for me. That's where my daughter was born, at UCSF. I have this huge attachment to San Francisco. It's like a love affair. Kaskade affairattachmentback share on social
