Kaskade has signed with Pacific Music Group (PMG) in a strategic partnership focused on expanding the electronic artist’s presence across Asia, the Pan-Asian entertainment company has revealed.
Kaskade, born Ryan Raddon, is an eight-time Grammy Award nominee whose career spans more than two decades. He was the first DJ to headline Coachella, performed the Super Bowl’s first-ever in-game DJ set and drew a record crowd to the LA Memorial Coliseum, which Pollstar recognized as North America’s biggest single-day electronic music show. His accolades also include a Grammy nomination for Kx5, his collaboration with producer deadmau5.
His recent output includes 2025 album “undux,” a return to introspective songwriting, and a new live concept, “Origin //,” which he unveiled at Coachella in 2026, bringing a reworked stage show and fresh, previously unheard tracks to two headline sets.
PMG, the Hong Kong-based company founded by Ne-Yo, Sonu Nigam, MC Jin and veteran executive Jonathan Serbin, will serve as Kaskade’s strategic partner across Asian territories under the agreement, overseeing brand partnerships, media relations and long-term market development throughout the region. The deal also builds on PMG’s electronic music ecosystem through Ghostone Records, its imprint dedicated to developing talent and connecting Asia’s electronic music scene with the global market.
“Kaskade is one of the most influential artists in electronic music history,” said Serbin, co-founder and CEO of Pacific Music Group. “For more than two decades, he has consistently set the standard for artistic excellence and innovation, helping elevate dance music into a global cultural force. His vision aligns perfectly with our mission of partnering with world-class artists who continue to shape the future of music. We are thrilled to welcome Kaskade to Pacific Music Group and are excited to support his next era with a truly global strategy that spans A&R, brand partnerships, and new creative opportunities.”
“I’ve had a deep connection with Asia for decades, ever since I lived there for a few years,” added Kaskade. “When I get to use music to connect with the crowds across Asia, it’s such an amazing experience, and I always walk away with the deepest respect for the energy these crowds bring. Partnering with Pacific Music Group gives me the chance to build something even stronger which I’m excited about. I’m ready to get reconnected with fans who have supported this journey for years.”
Under the new partnership, PMG will back Kaskade’s push into Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia and Greater China, building out brand tie-ins and growth plans suited to each market.
The signing extends PMG’s push to build out a global roster since launching in 2025. In 2026, the company also added K-pop artist and former Girls’ Generation member Tiffany Young to its roster.
