Over the last few years, Mick Kastenholt, known by his stage name KAAZE, has become one of dance music's most potent burgeoning stars. With a passion for crafting dynamic and energetic sounds, KAAZE's inimitable and forward-thinking allure has sealed his position as an undeniable future star. It is also why, in 2024, he continues climbing his way to the peak of the electronic dance scene's loftiest summit.
KAAZE's career had opened worldwide with global DJ dates littering his tour schedule, millions of streams on his music, and even breaking into the Top100DJs Poll at #59. Collaborations with artists like Steve Aoki, Tiësto, Hardwell and Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter John Martin for the single 'Whole Again'. The year 2023, KAAZE's path began to carve out another direction with his sound. Comprised of a blend of techno, progressive, and electro elements, KAAZE revealed a more minimalist and reflective approach, going back to the earlier sounds of his productions with club music as the focus, rediscovering everything from the harder-edged sounds to the structure of more poignant melodic and lyrically based tracks. The new path opened a new, yet familiar, foundation to broaden his creativity. Early iterations of this 'new sound' of KAAZE were his end of 2023 tracks like his pulsating remix of Calvin Harris & Sam Smith's 'Desire', alongside Steve Aoki, as well as his solo single 'Last Call' and his full-tilt rework of Tiësto's iconic anthem 'Flight 643'.
