Acclaimed bass music innovator Kursa and classically trained violinist, composer, and producer Alicia Kiah are joining forces for the release of Nisky Hill, a 12-track full-length album arriving May 9 via Of The Trees’ Memory Palace.
Rooted in deep creative synergy, Nisky Hill is the result of months of shared composition and sonic experimentation. Every track is co-written and co-produced, blending Kursa’s signature electronic edge with Alicia Kiah’s emotive string work and cinematic touch. The result is a genre-blurring body of work that is bold, nuanced, and deeply immersive.
More than a blend of two distinct voices, Nisky Hill presents a unified vision—ethereal yet grounded, chaotic yet intentional. From sweeping harmonics to intricate beatwork, each track invites listeners into a world shaped by contrast, feeling, and fearless exploration.
The album will be celebrated with an exclusive listening experience on May 9 at The Black Box in Denver. The event features a full-album playback, artist commentary, select live performances, and a meet-and-greet with the duo. This intimate night promises fans an inside look at the creative process behind Nisky Hill.

About Kursa:
A fearless figure in experimental bass, Kursa rose from London’s underground rave culture with a sound shaped by breakbeat, jungle, noise, and metal. Known for his relentless output and raw live energy, he’s built a cult following through independent releases and past collaborations like Slug Wife and K.L.O. His Kursed Earth Bandcamp series continues to push the envelope with unfiltered creative drops. Live, Kursa is unpredictable and uncompromising—whether delivering hardware-heavy improv sets or explosive DJ sessions, no performance is ever the same.
With Nisky Hill, Kursa and Alicia Kiah offer a bold new chapter—an album born of trust, experimentation, and shared creative vision.
