Portrait of KNST in blue stage light — KNST — Oulu, FI

KNST is a DJ and producer from Oulu, Finland. With over 15 years as a guitarist, his roots lie in metal — a background that still shapes the emotion and atmosphere of everything he makes.

After discovering hardstyle in 2021 and starting to produce in 2024, he quickly built a sound that blends nostalgia, darkness and intensity while staying true to the foundations of rawstyle.

Beyond the studio, KNST is active in the Finnish harder styles scene through High BPM Squad, a collective organising hardstyle events in Oulu, and is a member of Hard Alliance. Behind the decks: heavy distorted kicks, dark atmospheres and melancholic melodies, built into sets with relentless energy.
