At just 22, Maidenhead, England’s Cameron Cassel, better known by his stage name Cassö, is rapidly emerging as a standout artist in the British electronic music scene. Recently, the UK-based DJ and producer has been featured in SoundCloud’s Ascending series, our platform’s spotlight on musicians worldwide who are making an undeniable splash in the industry with their exceptional talent, fresh energy and limitless creativity.
Where a love for melody is almost a cultural staple in the UK, it’s clear Cassö’s musical journey is deeply interwoven with his domestic influences, a trait that becomes immediately apparent when listening to his latest single, “Zeros,” a collaboration with Jazzy featuring Headie One. The collaborative single, which came to fruition after a chance meeting at the Brit Awards, demonstrates Cassö’s knack for creating electronic music that is both deeply dulcet and masterfully dance floor-ready.
As he navigates and redefines the familiar territory of electronic music with a fresh perspective, influenced by icons like the late Avicii and drawn to the melodic dance music scene, Cassö is carving out his own path, combining nostalgic elements with contemporary production techniques. With his remix of “Prada,” featuring RAYE and D-Block Europe, currently amassing over 26 million streams on SoundCloud, fans are resonating with Cassö’s distinctive sound and celebrating his knack for putting his own signature spin when tackling remixing other artist’s music.
Adding to his growing list of achievements, Cassö will be taking over Sundays at Ibiza Rocks across September, alongside DAIRE and Multunes. Marking a significant moment in his career, the residency doubles as a full-circle moment from when he first started out on SoundCloud to now headlining major events alongside the platform. Cassö expressed his excitement about these milestones, saying, “I feel really excited to be highlighted in SoundCloud’s Ascending program. It’s where I started out, [you’ve] always supported me, and have supported me even more with this...and also my Ibiza residency..."
"I feel like it’s something that was meant to happen and for it finally to be here is amazing.”
As Cassö continues to grow and evolve, his unwavering dedication to his craft, whether he is producing high-energy bangers in his studio or displaying his talents behind the deck, solidifies him as a true artist to watch.
