A1. Blackbird A2. Blackbird (Instrumental) B1. Blackbird (Ian Pooley Pooley's Main Remix) B2. Blackbird (Ian Pooley Pooley's Basic Dub) Mathias Kaden returns to Rekids with ˜Blackbird™, featuring a remix from Ian Pooley. Last appearing on Rekids with the ˜Control Your Mind™ EP in 2020, Mathias Kaden now delivers his third release on Radio Slave™s label, teaming up with Zoë Xenia for the mammoth ˜Blackbird™ backed with a pair of remixes from house legend Ian Pooley. Leading the A-side, ˜Blackbird™ sees Mathias Kaden reach for rumbling basslines, fluttering synths, and lush piano chords to craft a tense, building track enhanced by Zoë Xenia™s soaring vocal performance. Additionally, an instrumental version of the track features on the A2, providing a welcome bonus for listeners and DJs alike. On the flip, Ian Pooley twists the track into a rattling house jam, with wriggling keys, bouncing low-end sizzling percussion sitting under slices of Xenia™s effortless vocals. Rounding out the release is the ˜Basic Dub™ mix, which sees Pooley playing with classic dub techniques for a sharp instrumental take on the original.
