Kaskade
Strobelight Seduction
Hussle
San Francisco based DJ and producer Kaskade puts together some smart and savvy electronica on this, his fifth album with Strobelight Seduction, a mix of dependable beats and hook laden, soft trance style. The opening track Move on Me is not too bad and the collaboration with Deadmau5 is, at times, gorgeous and lush. What it lacks in low end thump it makes up for with a pace that simply demands dancing. Another top notch track is Pose, with its drawn out lyrics that pour over several bars while the bass line pumps hypnotically beneath. Kaskade is more of a remix specialist these days, having officially re-tinkered Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Seal in this year alone. Strobelight Seduction proves he doesn’t need the extra star power to demand global dancefloor respect and a good long listen.
