San Francisco-based DJ/producer Nikita, the Wicked is redefining electronic music with a powerful, cinematic energy. He strives to create honest, forward-thinking music by “finding the beauty in the imperfect, the elegance in the twisted, the grace within the chaos.”
With a background in future bass, Nikita has evolved into a force in the bass/trap scene, drawing inspiration from artists like Skrillex, ISOKNOCK, Apashe, and pluko. His ability to craft immersive sonic worlds has earned him a reputation for creating concept-driven projects that go beyond standard club and festival bangers.
In 2025, Nikita made his debut at well over a dozen festivals, including Lost Lands, Project Glow, Illfest, Northern Nights, Infrasound, Goldrush, and more. He has also supported heavyweights such as Zeds Dead, SLANDER, Illenium, Levity, REZZ, and Jauz. With his background of professional ballroom dancing, Nikita has an unmatched and contagious energy on stage.
Nikita’s discography continues to expand with impactful releases on labels such as Helix Records, Gud Vibrations, and Boom Records. He has also delivered official remixes for NGHTMRE, Louis The Child, and Dabin. This year, Nikita has collaborated with Darby, Louis The Child, SVDKO, and Angelo Mota, and has upcoming collaborations on his new concept EP Blinded By Vanity with Emi Grace and CREG (Reo Cragun).
Nikita has been championed by industry tastemakers Run The Trap, FUXWITHIT, Brownies & Lemonade, EDM.com, and TripleJ Radio.
Nikita, the Wicked isn’t just making bass music—he’s crafting an experience and telling a story as The Villain of Dance Music.
