Renowned hotel, casino and nightlife hub Revel, located in Atlantic City, NJ, has announced, Kanye West, will be taking over for his second stint during New Year's weekend at Ovation Hall. The 18-time Grammy winner will take the stage with a lineup of three concerts on December 28th, 29th, and 30th, continuing his trend of choosing Revel as the place to stage his only solo US appearances and where he held two sold-out shows this past July.
The electronic dance music trailblazer, Kaskade, will bring his signature sound when he takes over HQ Nightclub at Revel in Atlantic City for what is sure to be a spectacular debut as he helps close out 2012 with a special pre-NYE set on Sunday, December 30.
Born Ryan Raddon, The New York Times called him "the new face of electronic dance music" and that could suit him well. However, the American DJ has been in the scene for more than 10 years. In that time, he has built a name for himself as an innovator of the electronic dance music scene as fans know it today and helped to lay the groundwork for a titanic musical and cultural shift: a post-rock EDM revolution that has captured the imagination of a new generation of music lovers across North America.
Lisen to his latest Fools Gold Radio November Mix below to get a feel for his style and for more information and tickets visit here.
This past weekend, HQ Nightclub at Revel in Atlantic City launched the initiative Revel Nightlife Relief, which succeeded in raising over $75,000 towards the cause to give back to those New Jersey families impacted by the devastation of Hurricane Sandy.
All ticket sales were donated from the jam packed weekend which hosted AN21 (little brother to 1/3 of Swedish House Mafia's Steve Angello) on Friday night, followed by the queen of progressive beats, Bambi on Saturday, and closing out the weekend with electro sensation Afrojack's JACKED Tour on Sunday night.
