SF Love Fest Official Pre-Party Presented by Ruby Skye, Spundae & The SF
Love Fest
Featuring KASKADE. Also with Trevor Simpson.
Kaskade:Though he was born in Chicago, this DJ found his
spiritual and musical home in San Francisco by way of Salt Lake City and New York. He is
currently one of the most influential people in the San Francisco house scene, as well as
one of the hardest-working: By night he's Kaskade the house music producer/DJ; by day he's
Ryan Raddon, A&R director for OM Records. No matter what label you put on him Kaskade has
made an indelible mark on the dance electronic music scene.

sweaty and smooth.
