RELEASE DATE

Double LP version. DJ and producer
Mathias Kaden
has been on an energetic musical route since the beginning of his career. In his preferences he has never stuck to just one sound. From filigreed micro-house and percussive minimalism to his collaborations with
Marek Hemmann
and the Leipzig band
Marbert Rocel
(under the name
Karocel
), Mathias Kaden has continuously revealed new facets of his work. Six years after his widely acclaimed 2009 debut,
Studio 10
(VA 004CD/030LP), Kaden now refers to both his musical roots as well as his current experiences as an internationally travelling DJ. With
Energetic
, he gives something back to the dancefloor, namely a positive and timeless vibe deeply rooted in funk and the dignity of the early house years. For Kaden, as for many others, this early house ethos forms the foundation for a classic club sound. His new warmth had already started to come through in 2013 on his
Tentakle
EP on Desolat (DESOLAT 020X-EP) and "Fin," an exclusive track for his Watergate mix compilation (WG 014CD). Between autumn 2014 and spring 2015 Kaden took some time to produce
Energetic
. He invited the open-minded solo pianist and Karocel-partner
Martin Kohlstedt
to join him in the studio. The results are most apparent on the hymn-like, uplifting "Wisdoms," which also features live drums played by Kaden's longtime school friend
Herby
, a gifted drummer with his own studio in Gera, Germany. The bassline on "Get Phunky" is another live recording, this time from
Dave Daniel
of German band
Lilabungalow
. Kaden has also rediscovered his analog synthesizers. Juno 106, Moog Litte Phatty, and Moog Minitaur shape the original sound of
Energetic
as much as the spoken-word elements of a number of vocalists, including American legend
Foremost Poets
, whose 1998 track "Moon-Raker" is one of Kaden's all-time favorites; exceptional hip hop and dancehall performer
Aquarius Heaven
;
Zoe Xenia
;
Sophie Taylor
; and
Rocko Schamoni
, star of German underground pop entertainment, who closes the album with a half-spiritual, half-laconic speech about the effectiveness of energy.
Mario "Marlow" Weise
, also known for his work with Sonar Kollektiv, provided the tonal finishing on the album.
Energetic
captures the manifold emotional billows of a club night. It concentrates on the essentials -- few elements, full of energy; more soul and history than quick dancefloor effects. It is an album that is very close to Mathias Kaden as a person, which also shows in his track-by-track notes.
