Biography
Cascada is a standout German dance project fronted by the singer named Cascada. She is also supported by producers DJ Manian and Yanou. This formation was officially created in Bonn in 2004. The singer’s real name is Natalie Horler. She was born on September 23, 1981, in Germany, but raised in England. Her mother is a teacher of foreign languages, while her father is a professional jazz musician. This man influenced this daughter’s interest greatly and cultivated in her fondness of music. Father’s occupation allowed Natalie to find any necessary equipment to record herself performing mostly jazz and Disney songs. Gifted abundantly with vocal skills, the young artist worked hard on her dancing too. Aged seventeen, the girl transferred her priorities towards dance music and established good contacts with local DJs. She started with doing her vocal parts for their tracks until she finally met Yan Pfeiffer (Yanou) and Manuel Reuter (DJ Manian). Having reached perfect understanding, this trio decided to started a new dance formation with Natalie as the main figure on the stage and in public.

Launched as Cascade, this project was soon renamed to Cascada to avoid legal conflicts with a different performer who evidently appeared earlier. The musicians chose an old and proved efficient method to reach the wide audience. This was covering the famous hit once performed by other celebrities. This was the reason why Cascada’s first long player was predominantly composed by covers. Named by the most successful single, Everytime We Touch (2004), it produced an effect of explosion in the dance charts both in Europe and the USA. There were eight songs from this album that were eventually released as singles, but the biggest attention and public’s entire love were given to Everytime We Touch. This track separately won golden certificates in a number of countries paving the way to the top for the whole album. The sales of this record made Cascada the nicest German seller word wide and a new star in the dance universe overnight. There were three million copies of this studio work purchased all over the globe. Massive touring through different continents and seasons kept Cascada from recording activities for quite a while.
They were back in the studio in 2007 and recorded their sophomore long-play, Perfect Day, just as fast as its glorious predecessor. Within several weeks, another powerful dance music specimen was fully prepared and delivered to the stores. The main difference from the debut effort was that the second one contained several slow-tempo ballads, which marked the group’s attempt to broaden the boundaries of their creative exploration. Perfect Day again consolidated Cascada’s leading positions in the mainstream music and had a high commercial performance with over a million discs sold. In the USA, the record was offered with a slightly different track-list since Cascada did not have the North America copyrights to some of the songs they covered for this album. In the summer of 2009, the German trio presented their third long player under the title Evacuate the Dance Floor. The group continued spreading their music horizons and added traces of some other genres to their classic euro dance sound. As a result, the album was sure to please those who liked Cascada from the start as well as their new listeners. Once again, the record received its name from one of its singles.

Perfect Day is the second studio album released by German Eurodance group Cascada. The entire album was produced by the group's two DJs, Yanou and DJ Manian. Like its predecessor, the album is comprised heavily of uptempo Eurodance tracks, many of which are cover songs. This album, however, features covers of songs from the early 2000s of the rock and country genres, with the exception of Because the Night (originally released by Patti Smith) which was released in 1978. Two edited tracks, 'Endless Summer' and 'I Will Believe It' that were previously recorded under the Siria name are also featured. Musically, the album is composed of Eurodance tracks with euphoric trance-style synths, drum programmings with a tempo over 140 beats per minute, and Europop lyrics. Lyrically, the albums is composed of love, partying and romance.
Critical reception of the album was negative, with many critics disliking the repetitive nature, that all the songs on the album sounded similar, and the lack of character and originality. The album has sold about 3 million copies worldwide. There was a total of five singles released from the album. Unlike their previous album, Perfect Day only had one successful single worldwide. 'What Hurts the Most' peaked in the top ten in six countries, including Austria and France and was certified gold in the United States for sales exceeding over 500,000 downloads. 'What Do You Want from Me?' and 'Because The Night' peaked in the top sixty in Austria, Germany and the United Kingdom. The last two singles, 'Faded' and 'Perfect Day', were released in the United States and Canada and failed to garner any chart success.

Release and reception[edit]
In the first week of UK sales, Perfect Day sold 50,000 copies,[4] debuting at number 12 on the UK album chart. However, in the second week it sold 100,000 copies, but fell to number 16. It then climbed back up, and peaked at a comfortable #8, before being knocked out of a weeks spot in the top ten. By the end of the year, the album had sold around 239,000 copies, making it the 64th highest selling album in the UK in 2007.[4] The album has currently sold over 3,000,000 copies worldwide.[citation needed] The album was released on March 4, 2008 in the U.S. with a new cover and track listing peaked at a #70 in the U.S Billboard 200.[5]
The album was released in Australia on 15 March 2008.[6] The album has been added to iTunes Italy in January 2008 being the first Cascada album released in Italy, but it was later removed; then on 2 January 2009 it was re-added. On 20 October, the album was due for a UK Platinum Edition re-release but was cancelled. The album was not released in the Netherlands until 7 November 2008. The Dutch version contains the American bonus tracks and the original track listing.
The album received negative reviews from most critics with Sharon Mawer from Allmusic criticizing its repetitive nature by saying 'How could anyone keep up the pace of these songs for a whole track, let alone a complete album, when the pumping beat is relentless and Horler, together with the production, contrives to make every song sound identical?'
