Z3nkai is a psytrance powerhouse and a true sonic explorer from Switzerland, with over 15 years of experience spinning, organizing, and pushing the boundaries of the scene.

The name itself is a testament to his musical philosophy, drawing inspiration from three distinct Japanese characters:

全開 (full power),
全快 (full recovery),
全壊 (destroy).

With a discography spanning over 70 tracks across three distinct projects : Z3nkai, Z3nbugs, and Warp Engine, he's forged a reputation for a sound that is both deeply psychedelic and unapologetically unique.

His production style is a masterful fusion of influences, channeling the precision of DNB, the raw power of metal, the rhythm of hip-hop, and the hypnotic pulse of techno into a high-energy psytrance journey.

This sonic identity is elevated by his deep passion for hardware, with a workflow that centers around iconic synthesizers like the Virus TI Polar 2, Nord Modular, and Korg MS-20, as well as his exploration into modular synthesis to craft truly one-of-a-kind sounds, from artificial lifeforms to evolving, organic textures.

Z3nkai's collaborative spirit is evident in his work with some of the scene's most respected artists, including Module Virus, Angry Luna, AthzirA, Zzbing, and his exciting upcoming projects with E.V.P and a remix for Electrypnose.

As the head honcho of Digital Shamans Records, Z3nkai has been instrumental in curating the label's cutting-edge releases and compiling some of the scene's most respected VAs.

His influence extends globally, with performances worldwide in countries such as Brazil, New Caledonia, Mexico, and Costa Rica, and across nearly all of Europe. He has commanded major stages at renowned festivals, including Mo:dem, Arvore da Vida, and Universo Paralello, sharing his transformative sound with international audiences.

Beyond the studio, Z3nkai is a driving force behind Switzerland's vibrant psychedelic scene, having organized some of the nation’s biggest and most memorable parties with Hoffmoon, Freaky Moon, and Liquid Dimensions.

Whether behind the decks or shaping the next generation of sound, he remains committed to building a community around the transformative power of music.

KRAKENKANE is an electronic music project born in 2018, at a moment when sound became more than just a curiosity — it became a calling. I was 18 years old, drawn into the world of frequencies, textures, and rhythm by something I couldn’t explain. Since then, KRAKENKANE has evolved into a sonic expression of my journey through life, love, light, and darkness.

My sound exists in the in-between — a fusion of emotion and energy, chaos and calm, intuition and structure. I don’t follow a formula. Instead, I follow feeling. I’m always experimenting, always searching. Each track is an exploration of vibration, a code written in sound that speaks to what we often can’t put into words.

KRAKENKANE is about contrast — the beauty of duality. Light and shadow. Love and loss. The known and the unknown. I create music not just to make people move, but to help them feel, reflect, and even drift beyond themselves for a while. Whether it’s a deep, pulsing bassline or an ambient wave of sound, every element I build is meant to connect.

This project is deeply personal, but also cosmic. I believe music is one of the few languages that can bridge our individual experiences and remind us that we’re all part of something larger. Something vibrating. Something alive. My inspiration comes from the mystery of existence, from late-night thoughts, from emotion I can’t shake, and from the limitless power of sound itself.

There are no boundaries here — just frequencies, moments, and messages encoded in sound.

Since 2018, I’ve been crafting and refining this project, building a catalog of work that reflects both growth and transformation. This is still just the beginning. KRAKENKANE isn’t a genre, it’s a journey — and if you’re here, maybe you’re meant to feel it too.

Plug in. Drift out. Let the frequencies guide you.
