\u201cnolimit is my debut album. It has so many different meanings to me. It\u2019s a model I’ve created for myself to be the artist I want to be. An unconditional expression of my production, musical journey and care for dance music. My homage to the artists and music I grew up on, and a bridge to connect electronic music with the scenes I’m inspired by. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to channel my personal experiences as DJ and producer.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

from my early days as an open format DJ to bootleg remixes to mainstage festival performances \u2014this project is a culmination of all of those years and highlighting those parallels. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from my motives and explanation of the sonic world, I want to enable and encourage others to be authentically themselves. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone can embody this type of expression and belief. \u2018nolimit to what we could do,\u2019 ya kno?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ascending electronic producer Knock2<\/strong><\/a> has unveiled his long-anticipated debut album, nolimit<\/em><\/strong> – a 17-track, genre-defying odyssey that caps off a breakout 2024 for the San Diego-native. The banner year that saw the 25-year-old artist deliver a legendary b2b with<\/strong> RL Grime at Ultra Music Festival<\/strong><\/a>, command a packed Coachella <\/strong>set as half of ISOKNOCK<\/strong><\/a>, and sell-out the self-produced, two-night San Diego 4EVR<\/strong><\/a> festival – an event contributing to ISOKNOCK<\/strong>\u2019s total of 50k tickets sold in California in 2024. These accomplishments have set the stage for 2025, where fans can now immerse themselves in the nolimit <\/em><\/strong>universe <\/strong>– an album experience that encapsulates Knock2<\/strong>\u2019s unique mastery of blending festival-ready bombast with intricate, experimental production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the height of the electronic music boom, the dance scene has witnessed young fans lean away from festival grandeur into more niche, Internet-based communities – at least until Knock2<\/strong>‘s arrival. In the years following his ubiquitous smash hit “dashstar*<\/strong><\/a>“, Knock2<\/strong> has become a global sensation, breaking out of his local San Diego and SoundCloud circles onto international Main Stages. <\/strong>As a result, Knock2 <\/strong>has injected fresh blood into electronic music and attracted a cohort of young fans in the process – taking the torch from his big room predecessors to ensure the culture of large-scale electronic music endures for future generations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The nolimit<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>LP is the culmination of this cultural revival. The album\u2019s tracklist combines vintage progressive and electro house with Y2K pop influences, infusing those elements with boundary-pushing, hip-hop-inspired sonics. Additionally, the album\u2019s expansive rollout has rewarded fans with an immersive, unfolding narrative and retro-futuristic visual palette. The result: a full-length, multimedia project that merges digital and real-life realities, drawing in newer dance music fans while encouraging them to experience the album at the biggest stages possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
