KAS:ST
at Cercle Festival 2022 (Ariane Stage)
A space-themed stage for a techno set? The festival lads who spend their entire weekend talking about their "spiritual awakenings" are going to have an absolute field day with this one. Someone check on the guy doing geometric air-math in the front row. The massive Ariane rocket looms over the stage, bathed in blood-red lasers as the twilight sky gives way to an industrial, cosmic atmosphere. Pushing a solid 129.3 BPM, this Techno journey is heavily anchored in the 12A key for maximum dramatic tension.
The low-end energy sits at 0.6078, providing a relentless, driving groove. KAS:ST’s mixing style is cinematic and aggressive, utilizing long, tension-building breakdowns that shatter into heavy drops. The KAS:ST Cercle Festival 2022 tracklist perfectly balances melodic emotion with raw warehouse power. The Teenage Mutants Remix of "Sonic Fuse" is an absolute weapon, and Steve Moore’s remix of "Signal II" by Long Distance Poison is a proper deep cut.
The KAS:ST live set blasts off immediately with the opening track "Lost in Techno" by Gianni Di Bernardo & Rian Wood. A major highlight is Dosem’s "All Locations (Edit)", leading into the epic, emotional closing track "Leaving Earth (feat. Ki Bae)" by KAS:ST & Gordo.
