Apparently after Kaskade put the finishing touches on his new album ‘Atmosphere,' the record label said they didn't like it. We all know Deadmau5 has had issues with record labels, but Kaskade? While we still don't know if Ultra Music was the record label who rejected it at first, we can assume it was for the time being. Read the long Twitter conversation at the bottom of this post straight from the mouth of Kaskade.
Ok, Mic check.

Yeah so as you may or may not know I am in between labels now. Meaning, I don't have a REAL way to release music…

…labels are the guys that package and market music so it gets to your ears.

for the entirety of my career I have been signed to an independent label or put stuff out myself…

…this has been fun and very rewarding as I get to do pretty much what I want when I want to do it.
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…but as my career progressed and more importantly as more people discovered this kind of music it has become increasingly difficult…

…to get music out and heard. Atmosphere the album was declined by the label when I turned it in. Yep. Declined. Turned down….
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…as in, no thanks we don't like that.

Kind of funny to think about now but that is kind of how things are moving in this space. Which is cool things change and move forward…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…so as of right now I am just chilling figuring out what is next. I continue to create and write music cause that is what I do…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
Anyway, all this is to say that I have some new music for you but no way to get it to you…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…I know what you are saying. Well just load it up and we can download it. Yeah I hear that…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…but the value of something that is just given away for free is never the same of that which is earned…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…and that is kind of the conversation that I have been having with myself for the last few days.
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
… well they guy in my head screaming "just give it to them fool" won.
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
the good News is, you get to grab the new tune for nothing and enjoy it, which I hope you do. Grab it and enjoy it.
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
…the bad news is only a handful of people will only hear this song as the only way it will be promoted is here in this space…
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
and I am cool with that, so you are gonna have to be cool with it too.
— Kaskade (@kaskade) March 20, 2014
Well, that was fun.
