Kaskade Tickets

When I purchased tickets to see Kaskade I had expected something similar to past EDM concerts I've been too. I know the venue (Ryze) is more "club"style however there were a few things that were misleading about the "concert". While I didn't expect a huge stage performance or showmanship, I was highly let down by the fact that Kaskade was not even the "main"DJ during the "concert". The event started at 10pm and having gone to many EDM concerts in the past, I expected some minor named DJs to perform maybe an hour to an hour and a half before the headliner came out aka Kaskade. That is NOT what happened. Each hour a new DJ came out and played their set for a solid hour. With each transitioning DJ, they started to turn the music up louder and louder. By the time Kaskade was introduced and on stage, which by the way it was 1AM before they even showed up... Kaskade played for maybe an hour at best. On top of that, since the sound engineers were turning up the music every hour on the hour, by the time Kaskade got to perform, the sound was so loud that it started to distort the equipment. The highs were piercing to the point it actually hurt to hear some of the song mixes with little to no mids or bass. Kaskade's albums usually include lots of vocals and because of the sound mixing, you couldn't really hear nor understand any of the vocals since all other sounds were washed away by the high range sounds. I understand the venue is acoustically challenging but turning the volume up to absolutely unnecessarily high levels to such that even your equipment starts to crack is just poor sound engineering. If Kaskade ever comes back to Ryze, I will not be buying tickets. I will also probably never buy tickets for any DJ or performance done at Ryze.

I was excited to have a chance to attend this event but I was very disappointed that the main attraction was 2 hours late to a 4 hour event. The alternative DJ provided great support while we waited but when he did show up all he did was turn the music up louder. It got to the point we had to leave shortly after he arrived. Not sure how the rest of the party went. Having my sternum vibrate from the bass being up that high is not really entertainment and as a physician i’m pretty sure it is not good for me either. Making really loud music is not the same as making really good music.

Beautiful hotel, open bar and great music. This exceeded my expectations.

Most amazing and thought out event at the guitar hotel pool. VIP section wasn’t too packed, plenty of space, and the tables to place your purse/drinks were perfect. The staff were friendly and great at assisting and directing us in line for the drinks. It really kept everything moving and at a smooth pace. The fire dancers and beautiful women on stilts were magical. The robot man was also a really nice surprise! I love that guy lol. The HUGE container of water bottles were a blessing in disguise ??. The only thing I wish was better was the “premium” liquor… they could’ve done WAY better. I felt bad for general admissions bar if what we had was premium ??. However, it was open bar so good enough. Lastly, the man of the event -Kaskade - put on the most spectacular show!!! I have always been a fan but never saw him in person and wow. He played his best songs including other DJs hits. I would 1000% buy those tickets again. Thank you for an unforgettable evening!

Top notch club environment. Mascara was absolutely incredible! Dare club was a great place to catch his show fo sho.

We had the best time at Big Night Live seeing Kaskade. The music, the lasers and graphics on screen were all top notch! The crowd was super friendly and PLUR! Highly recommend seeing him if you get the chance.

Omg, kaskade did it again i have seen him so many times between ezoo and other festivals. Saturday nights show hit so many great feelings of how much I love this man, and how much he has made me get through so many things in life. He seriously has my heart and will forever be an amazing part of my world. If I met him I would hug him and say thank you for making music like he does for everyone, and thank you for getting me though so much because without his music I probably would be in a much worse place then now. Thank you so much for everything.

This was my first time attending this venue. I was very pleased with my experience. The security was friendly and not overly aggressive. The bar was very friendly and attentive. Great vibes the whole night. I was more impressed with the DJ that opened for Kaskade.

Ok, so this is going to be long. I actually saw him Thursday night and I wouldn’t say I didn’t like the set, but it really felt like a super pop-y set…that’s part of why I stopped listening to him as much. I loved FIRE + ICE and his singles more so (meaning a while back he just had a different style of production) than this style of set so THURSDAY (although I have never seen him live before in my life and was just happy to SEE him and the show was free as I was on guest list) was a bit less energetic imo. ——SATURDAY—— ABSOLUTELY crushed the set with a remix of quite a few Fire + Ice tracks and the singles I did enjoy off The Grand(?) This was more so the set I KNEW was coming as BNL would require a ton more energy. I had been to BNL the last few months (Mau5 did the same run of shows, Eric Prydz was recently at BNL and now Kaskade) Side note for this ^ seeing as how deadmau5 and Kaskade play together as KX5, I’ve never heard any of them outside of what Mau5 has played. He played like 3-4 Kx5 tracks and I loved every second of it! He also played a remix of Strobe by deadmau5, AND he played an Eric Prydz track. I’m not sure if it was on purpose but I definitely noticed the pattern. Mau5 played first, he played the Mau5 remix first, then he played Eric Prydz, who played after deadmau5..so you see the pattern? It was a good time either way and I have no complaints about the Saturday show! For the first times seeing him I was absolutely enjoying myself and glad I got to! MAU5 in Brooklyn Next!! Unless I cave in Steve Angello XD

So much talent went into this. It was absolutely beautiful, fun, energetic, and reflective. I hope it becomes a Christmas ?? tradition.
