Vs Mental Bugs - Lifeforms

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.
