Like a symbol. What better way to rekindle the Cassius flame than with the Paris 2024 Olympic Games? After the tragic death of Philippe ‘Zdar’ Cerboneschi in June 2019, the flame is burning brightly again thanks to the determination of Hubert ‘BoomBass’ Blanc-Francard, the other member of the duo, to revive this legendary name in the French Touch. And not just on 8 September during the Closing Ceremony of the Para Olympic Games, the first appearance of this reinvented Cassius. The trigger for this genuine reconstruction came during the many DJ sets Hubert has performed in France and abroad in trio with his two accomplices Étienne de Crécy and Falcon over the last few months. The audience's rapturous reactions when he played Cassius‘ hits (’Feeling For You’, “I'm a Woman”, “I <3 U SO” among others) convinced him that the story couldn't end there. With the certainty that a name that still resonates on dancefloors the world over should not be allowed to fade away, BoomBass is launching Cassius' comeback at the end of 2024. With the release of a Best-Of on 11 October and the first Cassius Club date a few days earlier, on 9 October at the Rex Club in Paris. This concept will soon be extended to dancefloors the world over, where Hubert will be surrounded by his many friends as well as new talent. And there's more surprises in store for 2025. We can't wait. The baseline ‘Cassius rockin’ non-stop since 1999’ is back in vogue.
