Because

Cassius was a former French duo based in Paris. They were founders of the label Cassius Records. Unfortunately, the duo broke up in 2019 due to the death of one of its members. Their music was influential and they had a significant impact on the electronic music scene.

With their unique sound, Cassius drew inspiration from various genres such as house, techno, and disco. They collaborated with talented artists including Étienne de Crécy, SebastiAn, Busy P, and many others.

If you enjoy artists like Alex Gopher, DJ Mehdi, Mr. Oizo or Sébastien Tellier, then you will definitely appreciate Cassius' music. Their discography includes hits like "Feeling for You" and "Toop Toop".

Double vinyl edition in gatefold sleeve, features the album CD. The CD included in the LP features the 14 tracks in the same order. After their first (very) successful album, Cassius decided not to rely on their natural ability to make us dance to their groovy basslines, and came back with a daring project: integrate some mostly African-American influenced singings in their compositions to give electronic music a new dimension. Don't worry, the catchy-rythmic sound of Cassius is still here. You might recognise the voice of GhostfaceKillah, one of Wu Tang Clan's members that delivers a punchy performance on the upbeat tempo track 'Thrilla', as well as Steve Edwards, the house music singer who sang with Swedish producer Axwell, and who's also known for having lent his voice to Bob Sinclar on the famous 'World, hold On'.
