After a six-year gap between full-length releases, Kai Wachi has announced his sophomore album, NEKROSIS.
Details are scarce at this time, but the album’s title suggests a continued exploration of the dark, transformative themes that have defined Wachi’s artistic trajectory. Known for his fusion of bone-rattling bass, Wachi has built a devoted following through his distinctive sound, which balances aggression and haunting melodic elements with lyrical themes like internal struggle and transcendence.
Scheduled for release on June 13th via Black Tiger Sex Machine’s Kannibalen Records, it’s the dubstep and bass music star’s first album since 2019’s debut DEMIGOD LP. From mythology to pathology, DEMIGOD examined the elevation of mortal to mythic stature while its successor appears to reference cellular death, perhaps symbolizing a shedding of old identities or a creative rebirth.
Wachi has released two singles so far in 2025, channeling his trap roots for “Drown” before teaming up with Aaron Richards for “Hold Onto Me,” a soaring melodic bass track. Both will appear on NEKROSIS alongside collaborations with Point North, Trella and Julienne By, among others.
