I have also tried hard to research them and have come up with a theory:
The name "matches" is a made-up name for a bunch of 'session musicians' who made that song for when the Cobra Kai ride down to the beach... Otherwise, someone would have uncovered something by now.... :((

Well, You could record the bit of the song You hear in the movie on tape, but the whole song, I dont know. I am searching for one song from the movie "no retreat, no surrender", namely the one during Jason´s training. The original is from Paul Gilreath and is called "stand on your own", but I would like to find the version in the movie.
