Renowned DJ and record Producer Kaskade teams up with the alt pop-rocker Skylar Grey in his new video for his latest electro banger “Room For Happiness," the closing track appears on Kaskade's newest double CD, "Fire & Ice," which is an insightful prelude into what promises to be an even bigger 2012 for Kaskade. The synth-heavy, bass pumping complements the smooth vocals by Grey, sure to be a big hit for them in the dance world.Penned by Grey with Kaskade supplies the frosty synths, the chill-out tune "Room For Happiness" was a gorgeous, progressive house track turned ballad. The original track was a little mellow for my taste, but the remix is big room house, containing a beautiful vocal breakdown prior to the build up. The song drops in to some powerful, bouncy, dutchy, electro house that is oh so satisfying. The remix serves to buff up the original, while still maintaining melodious piano chords, and an anthemic house drop.
Will turn 26 next week, Grey's voice makes it so damn angelic. The whole song is about depression, and lyrically oi takes on a gloomy subject, but the strength of “Room For Happiness” really lies within the lyrics, which Grey, handles the don't-despair vocals, is really able to make them shine in this euphoric dance beats over the top of the sleek, throbbing electronica of America's Best DJ. The angsty doom & gloom of Grey's usual lyricism sounds positively divine up against Kaskade's club beats, and the hopeful hook brings out that euphoric feeling that dance music usually delivers.
In clip, She does all this from behind bars in prison. The public service announcement's delivered from a bleak bed in a prison cell, and you thought you had a terrible Valentine's Day. Grey doesn't stay there for long, imagining herself in a winter wonderland, encircled by a ring of fire, and under a blazing sun. Kaskade spends the video leading a rave and watching Grey from a security camera, one of which is kinda creepy. Less creepy: He's totally using Beats by Dre! We'd buy a pair, but we're still holding out for Wubs by Skrillex.
