A New Era For Kaskade
The release arrives at a pivotal moment in Kaskade’s staggered career. Fresh off a monumental return to the Coachella desert last month, the veteran producer used the stage to debut a reimagined live concept and tease nine unreleased tracks from the new album, Origin //. “Meet Again” stands as the cornerstone of this new sonic chapter.

Ascent for Layton Giordani
For Layton Giordani, “Meet Again” symbolizes a meteoric rise and transition from the underground to the mainstage. Since dominating the charts in 2024 with the Green Velvet & Adam Beyer collaboration “Party All The Time,” Giordani has become a formidable force in the techno scene. This collaboration marks his definitive transition into the global spotlight, merging his raw club energy with Kaskade’s legendary melodic background.
“When Layton Giordani and I started building ‘Meet Again,’ we knew we needed a voice that could match that intensity that his NYC DNA brings, as well as the Kaskade of it all,” says Kaskade. “Enter Natalie Jane. She’s a powerhouse… The three of us together elevate ‘Meet Again’ to a place we wouldn’t be able to go alone.
Sound of The Summer
“Meet Again” sits at a unique crossroads of festival culture. By pairing Kaskade’s signature emotional depth with Giordani’s driving techno foundations—and anchored by a soaring vocal performance from Natalie Jane—the track encapsulates the current spirit of melodic techno and progressive house energy.
As the official anthem for EDC 2026, the production is engineered for the massive scale of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It captures the core ethos of the carnival, unity and love, while maintaining a sophisticated edge that ensures it will be a staple in club sets and festival mainstages alike.
