Kastle is the alias of Los Angeles-based DJ/producer Barrett Richards, a constantly evolving and forward-thinking artist that also runs the hotly-tipped Symbols record label. Initially emerging onto the scene with a fresh club sound that fused house, R&B, bass, and pop in a seamless fashion, his more recent output has signaled a shift towards a darker aesthetic that explores a more abstract, experimental, and physical style, a progressive mentality that shines through during his adventurous DJ sets as well. His exclusive mix for Midnight In A Perfect World revels in this headier, visceral style and swarms through some of his favorite new club tracks from underground producers, while also sneaking in some exciting forthcoming tracks on his Symbols label.
