Prior to being a recording artist, he was a record store owner and a club DJ at a nightclub in Salt Lake City as a way to make ends meet for him and his wife. After he and his wife moved to San Francisco he landed a job as a A&R man at OM records, where in addition to reviewing demos for the label he also submitted his own material, which would pay off big time for him. In 2001 he went from behind the desk to behind the turntables and the recording studio as an artist in his own right. In 2003 Kaskade released his first album, "It's You It's Me", which was well received by critics.
It would be his follow up, "In The Moment" in 2004, that would put Kaskade on the map. The first single off the set "Steppin' Out" would become a major hit on the Dance Radio Airplay that year as well as a top 10 hit on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. His biggest breakthrough would come the week of May 14, 2005, when his follow up, "Everything," would go all the way to #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart.

I wanna reach the sky with you
Our thoughts are silent, transparent
Only we can hear them, only we can hear them
I wanna break the rules with you
And they don't need to know about you, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout you, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout us, 'bout
They don't need to know about you, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout you, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout you, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout us
You, 'bout me, 'bout us
'Bout you, 'bout me, 'bout us
We are the start of something new
I'm gonna give my all to you
