About Knock2
Richard Nakhonethap, known professionally as Knock2, is a Laotian-American DJ and electronic music producer based in San Diego, California, who has rapidly become one of the most exciting and innovative names in contemporary electronic dance music. Born and raised in San Diego, Knock2 discovered his passion for music through his middle school's breakdancing club, where he was introduced to DJing via YouTube videos. He began DJing at the remarkably young age of 11 and taught himself music production by watching production tutorial videos on YouTube during the early 2010s dubstep boom, a period he credits with defining his energetic style. By age 16, he was already producing remixes and performing at local events despite being underage, demonstrating an extraordinary dedication to his craft from the very beginning.
Knock2's breakthrough came in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic with the release of his iconic bass house anthem "dashstar*," a track that achieved viral success without major playlist support or traditional promotion. The record took on a life of its own, receiving support from industry titans including DJ Snake, Tiësto, Diplo, Martin Garrix, Skrillex, and Joyryde, and securing the third slot on EDC Las Vegas' most-played tracks list for that year. As of October 2024, "dashstar*" has amassed over 98 million combined Spotify streams across its original and VIP versions and was even integrated into the video game Counter-Strike as part of a music kit through Nightmode Records. The track became so influential that it has been played by 182 different DJs over 379 times, cementing its status as a cultural phenomenon in electronic music.
In 2021, Knock2 released his debut EP
2HEARTs, which has been heralded as a classic among fans and tastemakers alike. His follow-up EP
ROOM202, released in February 2023, featured massive anthems including "dashstar*," "Make U SWEAT!," "gettin' hott," "Are U Feelin Me" (featuring multi-platinum artist Dev from The Cataracs' "Like a G6"), and "Rock Ur World" featuring fussy. The EP was inspired by the old electro house that he grew up on and the music that dominated radio in the 2010s, showcasing his range as a writer and producer with genre-bending moments. In June 2022, Knock2 launched his signature "Room202" event series—intimate, warehouse-style parties emphasizing raw party energy and authentic club atmosphere over high-production concerts—which sold out instantly in Los Angeles, later expanding to San Francisco, Salt Lake City, and San Diego.
Knock2's close collaborative relationship with fellow San Diego producer ISOxo has been a defining feature of his career. The two met as teenagers around 2015 while aspiring to DJ at local events like the San Diego County Fair, forging a close friendship rooted in their shared passion for electronic music production. Their early collaboration "Radial," released in September 2019 on RL Grime's Sable Valley Records, served as a precursor to their official duo moniker ISOKNOCK. The duo released the EP
niteharts on October 28, 2022, and the collaborative album
4EVR, which features ten tracks blending ISOxo's gritty trap influences with Knock2's groove-oriented house elements. Their ISOKNOCK performances have become legendary, including a sold-out Halloween XI: Dead Space show at the KIA Forum in Los Angeles and performances for over 50,000 attendees in San Diego and San Francisco.
On January 17, 2025, Knock2 released his highly anticipated debut studio album
nolimit via 88rising, a 17-track masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of electronic music by fusing house, trap, techno, drum and bass, and hyperpop into a cinematic experience. Featured collaborations include RL Grime on "come aliv3," along with contributions from MILLI, Warren Hue, Lauren LaRue, and others. Standout singles include "feel U luv Me" (featuring a sample from PARTYNEXTDOOR's "TBH"), "hold my hand," "shake!the!city!" featuring Naliya, "my melody," and "select@." The album introduced a dystopian visual world centered around "Dash," a pirate radio host fighting to save dance music in a world where loud electronic music is banned, adding narrative depth to Knock2's expanding artistic universe.
To celebrate the album release, Knock2 embarked on the Knock2: nolimit Tour in February 2025, featuring a brand-new stage design dubbed "The Stack"—a towering wall of retro speakers, LEDs, and raw analog energy that redefined the live electronic music experience. The tour sold out major venues across North America and Australia, earning widespread acclaim for its immersive production, curated flow, and special guest appearances from artists like RemK, Frosttop, and Wavedash. His performances at major festivals including Coachella (Do LaB stage), EDC Las Vegas, Lollapalooza, EDC Orlando, and Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival have solidified his reputation as one of the most electrifying live acts in dance music.
As of 2026, Knock2 continues to break boundaries and chart his own course in electronic music. With over 1.4 million monthly listeners on Spotify, support from virtually every major name in EDM, and a reputation for delivering unforgettable high-energy performances, Knock2 represents the new generation of producers who refuse to be confined by genre limitations. His music often centers around themes of love, togetherness, and positive energy, while his art direction is heavily inspired by streetwear, hip-hop, and West Coast SoCal culture. Outside of music, Knock2 finds inspiration in his friendships, skating, fashion, and exercise, maintaining an authentic connection to his roots while pushing electronic music into exciting new territories.
