A Kaskade Christmas: Electronic Music Meets the Holidays

It’s that time of year when everyone is heading home and settling into the rhythm of the holidays with friends and family. For music lovers, though, the shift from everyday listening to a loop of traditional Christmas classics can feel a bit abrupt. If you’re looking to keep things festive while adding a modern edge, Kaskade offers a perfect middle ground. With two full-length Christmas albums, he’s made electronic music a welcome part of the holiday season, blending warm melodies with his signature dance sound.

Alongside Kaskade Christmas Deluxe, Kaskade returned in December 2023 with Kaskade Christmas Vol. 2, featuring tracks like “Christmas Is Here,” “Deck the Halls,” “Silent Night,” “O Come Emmanuel,” and “Winter Wonderland.” He adds beautiful updates and rhythms into the classics while still maintaining the basics so the family will recognize every song. Beyond Kaskade, other major electronic artists have also put their own spin on holiday music including Blasterjaxx, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and Armin van Buuren who’s festive releases bring a modern electronic stye to the season. If you want to freshen up your Christmas playlist without losing the holiday spirit, these electronic takes on classic themes are an easy place to start.
