Baring both his soul and his undeniable production chops,\u00a0Kai Wachi<\/a>‘s sophomore album is finally here.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Boise-based\u00a0dubstep and bass music star proves he\u2019s not interested in genre constraints with the new album,\u00a0NEKROSIS<\/em>. Instead, he’s unapologetically\u00a0telling a story and working hard to ensure that it hits just as hard emotionally as it does sonically.<\/p>\n

Out now via Black Tiger Sex Machine’s\u00a0Kannibalen Records,\u00a0NEKROSIS <\/em>is his first full-length album since 2019’s Demigod<\/em>. The 13-track project builds on years of evolution, revealing a version of Wachi that’s more versatile, emotive and technically refined than ever before.<\/p>\n

“PRECIOUS” deliver’s the album’s opening remarks, pairing a towering vocal with an intense drum buildup that morphs into a barrage of trap- and dubstep-inspired chaos. Next up is “ILL,” an infinitely danceable banger that laces 8-bit arpeggios through hefty dubstep drops.<\/p>\n

NEKROSIS<\/em>\u00a0unearths its first emotional salvo with “Hold Onto Me,” a vulnerable and uplifting melodic bass cut featuring\u00a0Aaron Richards. “Not Giving Up” (with\u00a0Point North)\u00a0picks up where that track leaves off, but an unforgivingly heavy drop reminds us that Wachi’s melancholy won’t be exposed for too long before dragging you back into chaos.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Like You” changes the pace once more, delivering a bass house-style beat complimented by Wachi’s unique sound design. Finally, NEKROSIS <\/em>reaches its conclusion with “Be There For You,” a track featuring\u00a0Isaac Mather that delivers the album’s most poignant moments without compromising any of his patented bass drops.<\/p>\n
