Kylie Minogue + Kaskade? YES PLEASE! Kylie Minogue announced this week that DJ/producer/remixer extraordinaire KASKADE will be joining her as a ‘special guest’ during Minogue’s May 20th Hollywood Bowl appearance on her North American Aphrodite – Live 2011 World Tour. While KASKADE is only joining Minogue on this one date, I’m eagerly awaiting word on who’ll be opening for her on the rest of the tour, if anybody at all. When I saw Kylie in Chicago a couple of years back, there was NO opener. None. Zero. I’d LOVE to see Kaskade spin though. We’ll have to see!
While many artists in his genre have struggled to find their niche in the mainstream, Kaskade really has EXPLODED onto the scene. Kaskade’s sixth studio album, Dynasty climbed all the way to #5 on the iTunes Charts – that’s for ALL GENRES. Not just dance. Impressive feat! Dynasty comes hot off the heals of Kaskade’s popular fifth album, Strobelight Seduction, which garnered four international hit singles and the Top Spot on the iTunes Dance Chart. Considering what a mega star Kylie Minogue is, especially in the club scene, it makes sense that she’d want an internationally renowned DJ joining her.
Kylie Minogue‘s North American tour begins April 28th in Montreal and closes May 22nd at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Check out a full list of the tour dates HERE. I will be in attendance at Kylie’s April 29th Boston show and can HARDLY WAIT! Check out the video for “Get Outta My Way,” Kylie’s latest #1 hit on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart, produced by Cutfather, Peter Wallevik, Daniel Davidsen, Damon Sharpe, Lucas Secon and Stuart Price.
