"Museum Night, school party. For Cas there's no difference — both equally exciting, surprising, and slightly chaotic."
Cas Mulder produces electronic music that samples from classical recordings, folk traditions, and field recordings from around the world. For Cas, Museum Night is the ultimate playlist — a sequence of spaces and sounds that builds through the night. The route starts with the most classical and ends with the most contemporary, following the arc of a good set.
A route that follows the arc of a DJ set — starting with the most classical and building to the most contemporary. Cas's picks are all about sound, space, and the music of the city after dark.
