Emerging as a notable figure in alternative pop, Nastiya Kai launched her debut album, Demon Era, on May 31, 2024, under her own label, Nastiya Kai Music. The LP, which premiered on NOCTIS Mag, follows her recent single ‘Party At My House’ from April 2024 and her haunting track ‘Bury Me’ from October 2023. The latter received acclaim from NOTION Magazine, CLASH Magazine, Wonderland Magazine, and EARMILK, leading to an interview feature in Numéro Magazine and airplay on Flux FM. With her music surpassing 141,500 streams and continuing to gain traction, Nastiya Kai is establishing herself firmly in the expansive world of pop music, and she’s here to stay.
Demon Era is an explosive 13-track confessional odyssey through turmoil, mental health, betrayal, desire, empowerment, self-actualization and so much more. Eluding the confines of a single genre, it offers the listener an array of sounds, from the gritty hyperpop of the short opener, ‘London’ to the power ballad ‘Hey Bridget’, and so much more. ‘Party At My Place’, is another stylistic smorgasbord – a pulsing, introspective avant-pop anthem dissolves into a short glitchy ambient passage, which in turn gives way to an outro sweetly sung over picked acoustic guitar. The album offers an eclectic feast of moods and genres, while retaining a cohesive sense of Nastiya Kai’s distinctive strength and potent, raw emotionality.
Nastiya Kai shared: “Demon Era is a story of my life. It’s a reflection of what I am. Full of chaos, but also very sensitive and sentimental. Making this album allowed me to let go of many things and move on with my life, so it’s very very personal. I wanted it to be a blend of many different genres, to be confusing at times, honest and real. Every song is a particular story, a day, a person. At times it’s more indie, electronic, but then there are also some country and pop elements to it. It’s everything and I’m really proud of it.”
