That evening’s live performance will also be taped for a special DVD package that will be released at a later date.
"I've been preparing for this sold-out show at STAPLES Center to be one of my most epic, yet," said Kaskade. "It only seems natural to allow fans to experience it across the world through a live stream - it's the beauty of technology - I can bring this to so many more fans than just those in the arena!"
Additionally, in celebration of the evening’s events, the DJ will release a new track “Kaskade vs. Qulinez – Stars Troll” to iTunes and all other digital retailers on July 27th. The new track is a mashup of Kaskade’s “Stars Align” and Qulinez’s “Troll,” produced by Kaskade. The following week, the video footage of the STAPLES Center performance will be available as a music video on iTunes, MTV, as well as many more networks and digital retailers.
Kaskade marked an industry milestone by selling out Los Angeles’ STAPLES Center after already earning the distinction of the first Electronic Dance Artist to ever solo-headline the venue. After multiple attempts to play the Los Angeles area over the past year, the Staples show will mark Kaskade’s first proper show for the passionate Los Angeles fan base since his two back-to-back sold out shows at the Palladium in 2010.

The new production has garnered critical acclaim.
RollingStone.com for the NYC show at MCU Park: “Fresh off his performance at the Electric Daisy Carnival in Vegas, Kaskade performed against the backdrop of the famous Brooklyn boardwalk…he filled the minor league baseball stadium with the soaring vocals of Mindy Gledhill from his single, ‘Eyes,’ before dropping the bass and delivering more than 90 minutes of adrenaline-fueled house music.”
MTV: “Kaskade…knows that wherever he goes is where the party's at, which is why he's carving out some time this summer to traverse the United States and Canada giving us some of the most jaw-droppingly rad EDM chills ev-ah on his ‘Freaks Of Nature’ tour.”
