Explained simply

Kaskade is an American DJ and electronic music producer whose career has included major festival appearances and high-profile sporting events. DJs perform and mix recorded music, while producers create or shape tracks; many artists do both.

Pacific Music Group is a Hong Kong-based entertainment company founded in 2025 by musicians Ne-Yo, Sonu Nigam and MC Jin, alongside executive Jonathan Serbin. Music companies can help artists reach audiences through promotion, media work and commercial partnerships, often drawing on local knowledge in different countries.

Asia’s music markets include distinct audiences and industries, so an artist’s plans may vary from one place to another. PMG’s work with Kaskade is part of a wider effort to connect Asian music scenes with international artists and companies.
