-- Kaskade - Love Mysterious *new artist material*

I was able to get my hands on this "somehow". I think it gets released on 9/26. Very similar to In the Moment, although most of the tracks are around the same BPM and does not have many slower songs. All tracks have vocals and although I generally don't like when Kaskade features males on his songs, the 2 or 3 here are decent.

I'm not a big fan of the first single "Stars Align", its ok but nowhere near the caliber or strength of "Steppin Out", which introduced most mainstreamers to Kaskade. It's a fairly high-energy song but drags a bit and never has any build-up.

After listening to the BT album its hard to say this is anywhere near a "groundbreaking" album. Although its getting better and better (I'm up to 3 listens), it doesn't sound like much musical progression on Kaskade's part.

Tracklisting:

Stars Align
Be Still
In This Life
All You
Sorry
Distance
The X
Fake
Sometimes
Never Ending
4 AM

Weird thing is, my copy has "In This Life" which is an older Kaskade song. Not sure what that's all about.

Anyways, I'd give it a 7.5/10 and definitely support Kaskade and cop this!

Kaskade has been getting too commercial for my liking....

I'm a huge fan of some of his earlier work, but his reliance on vocals in EVERY SINGLE TRACK gets a bit tiresome. Then again, he's an artist and he is free to develop his style however he wants.

I will probably check this out, but I'm not sure if I will like it.

his earlier work was way better. on this one it sounds like complete filler. no creative inspiration or anything, just a re-hash of the same sound with no real direction.

toss this one in the trash.
