With two decades of experience, Mathias Kaden is without a doubt one of house music’s most consistent artists. Known for his versatile approach to music-making, Kaden has released on labels like Ovum and Avotre, not to mention Mule Musiq and Ornaments under his Japanese-inspired side project Mathimidori.

Not only that, Kaden has proven his adaptability with remixes of many top-tier artists like DJ Koze, Wareika, and Jesse Rose. He now joins Rekids to further establish his unwavering reputation.

"Liberate Drums" is already highly sought after having generated a lot of hype on a Honey Dijon podcast earlier this year and rightly so - Kaden layers claps with a looped leading groove and warped vocals. Vril then distorts the original, bringing filtered effects and crunchy percussion, while Hiroshi Watanabe’s musical rendition transforms the track with epic strings that work amongst elongated vocals giving the track a mystical quality. Finishing on a darker note, "Helicopter" utilizes warping waves that oscillate atop a bed of hammering percussion, infused with a groove that is destined to get you moving.
