Measures as Matrix Rows?

Hi,

 

I've calculated a summary table using a dataset and have generated data that I'd like to visualise via a matrix. As seen in the img link below, the calculated table has four columns - KPI 1, KPI 2, KPI 3 and Date. 

 

I would like a matrix where the Date is a column header, each KPI has it's own row and the matrix values are the corresponding values within the summary table. I've seen this be achieved via unpivoting a standard query but I don't believe this is applicable with a DAX generated table. Furthermore, if I just create a simple matrix with just Date and a single KPI, the data is visualised how I would like (minus the missing row header), but when I add multiple KPIs it merges into the same row.

Any suggestions?
