Late Night Alumni are Becky Jean Williams, Finn Bjarnson, John Hancock, Ryan Raddon (aka Kaskade).
Late Night Alumni is the alias of DJ/producer Kaskade, currently signed to ‘Om Records’ and loaned to the Hed Kandi label. They tend to mix Dance/house music with strings and soft trance like vocals from their lead singer, Becky Jean William’s smooth voice. Their current album Empty Streets was successful enough to be made into a polyphonic ringtone.
As an 80’s teenager in the suburbs of Chicago, Raddon was fascinated by the sound of New Wave, having been exposed to music as diverse as Tears For Fears, The Cult and The Smiths, primarily through Frankie Knuckles’ DJ sets in the city. From then on he religiously listened to local dance radio and bought new records at every opportunity, finally taking to the decks at the end of the decade.
Circa 1992 Ryan moved to Salt Lake City to continue his education, where he DJ’d and ran a local record shop to fund his studies, eventually building a studio and driving the upcoming scene by releasing several tracks on his own Mechanized Records imprint.
In 2000 he created the Kaskade moniker and has since garnered praise from the worldwide dance press and quality house music fans alike for his musical output on various labels and talents as a DJ. Ben Watt and Roger Sanchez are just two of house’s leading lights who are big fans of the Kaskade sound, which Ryan insists comes from his outlook on life in general “I’m an optimistic guy. There’s a lot of love in house music and this is just what comes out.”
