Dance Music in America : Kaskade
For the last year, I have become excitedly passionate about a hobby: Electronic Dance Music. I especially love to watch DJs play live. From Electric Daisy Carnival in New York City to Lights All Night for New Years in Dallas and even Ultra Music Festival in downtown Miami this past March, I feel extremely blessed to have witnessed the talent of the people who created the world of Dance Music.
Earlier this week, Kaskade put on a show that was like nothing I had ever experienced in the Dance Music culture. The setting was a dark club with just a light-up dance floor that felt like a warehouse pulsing with bass.
In his blog, Kaskade explains the change in approach he takes for his #redux tour: playing in a very intimate venue with few lights to distract the audience from the man behind the booth. This is much different than many of the sets he plays, which include large clubs and stadiums with big stages and advanced lighting. It is interesting to compare his styles in each type of venue. Below are three videos of the times I have seen Kaskade. I first saw him at a fairly large club in Dallas, Texas during the summer of 2012; next, I saw Kaskade play Saturday night on the Main Stage during the first weekend of Ultra 2013; and most recently, I was lucky enough to attend the first stop on Kaskade's #redux tour. I am thankful that Kaskade mixes it up and makes each experience one to remember.
