Review

"Kaskade is one of the few who've pushed past the Sashas and the Derricks to get on the A-list." --Village Voice

Product Description

San Francisco's Kaskade is considered one of the most exciting house music DJs in the country and one of the hottest breakthrough artists in this genre. This is his third album - a shimmering collection of lush house tracks infused with his trademark vocal-laden melodies and addictive interludes. It epitomizes the sultry sounds of San Francisco. Kaskade has remixed such top pop artists as Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears, and his last mix album includes a Grammy nominated song.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kaskade - Strobelight Seduction, June 20, 2008

By	T. Snyder "TS" (AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been a big fan of Kaskade's for a few years now ever since randomly stumbling upon one of his first albums. I love his original CD's - where he produces/creates the music himself - much more so than just DJ-in-the-mix-CD's. It's much more difficult to create the music yourself.

I had a lot of problems enjoying his last album "Bring the Night", which was way too loud and aggressive for Kaskade, especially compared to all of his other works. This newest release Strobelight Seduction is thankfully back in his regular vein of music!

My only complaints would be that it's too short at just over half-an-hour long. And it's all female vocalists on it. I could have used a male vocal or instrumentals in a couple of the songs. But those complaints are very minor.

'Strobelight Seduction' is very smooth, sexy, late-night listening. Very relaxing. Never cheesey. If you're a fan of Kaskade's music, I'm sure you'll like it. If you're new to his stuff, but you like mellower house, you'll probably dig it too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seduced Indeed !, June 10, 2008

By	Michael Rivera "Muscle Mike" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If CD were weapons, this would be a nuclear warhead! I thought that he could not make an album as good as "Love Mysterious", but, this album manages to be as good, or even better. I loved the hard hitting beats in the track "1,2, step". "Angel on my shoulder" is a dance-rock goodie. The first 30 seconds of "I remember" remind me of tracks from the Radiohead album, "Ok Computer" except it has a lush beat. "Move for me" is mezmerizing and will leave you in a trance. This album is called Strobelight Seduction for a reason-It is very sexy !

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, March 6, 2009

By	ECW (Washington, DC, USA) - See all my reviews

I've been a fan of Kaskade's for years, and his work seems to get better and better with each passing album. If only his original studio albums didn't come so infrequently. This is by far his best original production to date. Kaskade has an uncanny ability to produce the catchiest melodic pop hooks in his songs, and the production is smooth, organic, and unoppressive, with real lyricism and vocals, unlike a few of his electronic music contemporaries. He even throws in an actual guitar or piano on occasion. Overall this album deserves 5 of 5 stars for its perfect blend of house music style, melody, vocals, and musical production.
