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.

Symbolico project is about the perfect combination between Ambient vibes and Groovy rhythms.  A musical expression of deep insights  that empower you to follow and develop your dreams into your life.

Xed is the psytrance project by the Founder of Patronus records, Cedric Marugg. He discovered the psytrance scene and started playing DJ-Sets at local parties in 2016 and got himself immersed deeply into everything about it, due to falling in love with the music and dancing. After some parties he decided to organize his own events in the Swiss mountains and gather experience organizing raves. After two years of DJing he decided to dive into music production and started developing his skills with help by some of his friends (Mirror Engine, Metrix, Yaroc a.m.m.). Cedric quickly learned and distinguished himself as having a unique style very early on. 

As time went on, next to putting in lots of time into the record label, his production only grew more mature and clean, not loosing a bit in creative ideas. Wild, unorthodox breaks, funky stinging raygun sounds, poisonous acid stabs, reckless alien space battles and all the gud spacey shit included. Fun but yet introspective psychedelia, but undoubtedly different, generating excitement through sheer overflow of creative and brain-twirling patterns and grooves. Blasting as loud as possible is a moral obligation. 

He had the honor to play at some big events like the Sangoma Night in Zürich, Utopia Festival in Ticino, Sundaze festival,Burning Mountain, Reisefieber Festival & Sensory Spectrum in Oman. Patronus Records has been founded officially in 2018 and since then, Cedric, with all the fire in his heart, has been continuously putting great effort and work into it. His goals are always growing as an individual. He's driven by the idea of giving music lovers and dancers a smile, as well as hosting a family of like-minded people and giving them soil to grow on.
