Happy New Year to you all! Sometimes it feels each year goes by quicker and quicker, but it feels good to rewind, slow down and live in the moment! 

We are absolutely thrilled to have one of the pioneers of deep, dreamy and electronic grooves. Mark Slee doesn't need any formal introductions, but like all quality artists it is important to provide a little background and context to give you listeners a nugget of information to take away with you :) 

He's been on the scene for over 20 years and therefore has an idea of what groove is all about. Teaming up with Atish in 2016 they created the label @manjumasi , which has been a leader in releasing quality deep house productions with a hint of quirkiness to differentiate themselves from the masses. A reference point for the connoisseurs. 

Once you click play on this mix you are suddenly already 20 minutes in without even realizing it. "Good" or "Great" DJs is a term that is far too easily used in the current electronic scene, but when you listen to the transitions in this mix, the track selection and the music Journey that Mark brings you on, you can now understand what differentiates your every day DJ to one that actually understands what music is all about. 

Many thanks for the dope mix Mark.

POWELSTAD EP - Out Jan 31st, 2025

Bespoke Musik follows up their acclaimed VA: Volume One with Powelstad, an EP that is equal parts groove and storytelling, courtesy of longtime collaborators (and borderline telepathic duo) Powel and Christian Voldstad. 

The story began in 2015 at Brooklyn’s Lot 45, where Powel dazzled on the decks and a young Christian Voldstad warmed up the crowd, proving that even scrappy openers can steal hearts. Nearly a decade of countless B2B sets, Burning Man, Berlin, and beyond, the two have fine-tuned their chemistry and along the way, listeners coined the name “Powelstad”.  

Powelstad EP is the result of more than a year of collaborative sessions in Powel’s Berlin studio. It’s a concise expression of both artists' shared musical tastes, incorporating hardware synthesizers and recorded organic instruments. Rounding things out is a stunning remix by Samihe of Minds Alike Records—because perfection always needs a cherry on top.  

Bespoke Musik is proud to finally release the shared production output from some of our favorite family members. Powelstad is not just quality house music; it’s a vibe, a journey, and a gentle reminder to stretch before you hit the dancefloor. Out Jan 31st, 2025 on Bespoke Musik—don’t sleep on it.

"Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go."

Life has a curious way of unfolding—filled with uncertainties, unexpected turns, and moments that challenge our trust in the process. The journey is not about control but about surrendering to what comes and learning to find peace in what is.

'Threads of Stillness' was meant to serve as a pause—a moment to simply be here, now, always. Change is constant, and how you respond to it will shape your experience. True peace isn’t found in resistance but in acceptance, in flowing with the rhythm of life.

EPISODE 200: THE LOST TRANSMISSION

The Acid Tourist aka Holmar. A Brooklyn legend, an Icelander, a merry prankster, a sonic alchemist once known as half of Thugfucker, a current member of the Formerly supergroup, and one half of Beauty and the Beast with Phillip Jung.

Episode 200 of Bespoke Musik Radio. It was meant to be his grand return. But then, without a word, he vanished.

The radio show skipped ahead, leaving an empty slot in its timeline—a silent tribute to the episode that never was. Twenty episodes later, the airwaves cracked. A low, warped hum slithered through the static. Faint laughter echoed from nowhere and everywhere at once. Then, a voice—distorted, playful, familiar.

The Acid Tourist.

The words came through in jagged bursts, a transmission riddled with interference. The episode had never been lost, he explained. We had simply been listening on the wrong quantum timeline. While the rest of us moved forward, The Acid Tourist took a detour—a casual bike ride through a wormhole, a ripple in the acid stream, slipping through the cracks of reality itself. And in his travels, he discovered an alternate timeline where Episode 200 always existed.

This 6-hour plus show consists of two sets, recorded live: the first in January 2019 at the Wolfkop Weekender in Citrusdal, South Africa—an open-air sonic odyssey under the Southern Hemisphere’s starlit sky. The second, a morning session in August 2023 at KaterBlau’s Acid Bogen in Berlin, where the Spree whispered secrets to the sunrise.

Now, brought back to our dimension. Thought lost to the sands of time—here, finally, for your listening pleasure. ❤️

Powel [Journey Series 300th Episode]

The very first breath of a night that promised fire, with a lineup full of souls we admire and respect deeply — Hraach, Kora, Madota, Bodaishin, Hyunji-A, Lupe Republic, Volmaan… and the one who opened the journey: IZHY.

In the heart of Amsterdam, during our ADE showcase alongside Saisons Musique, IZHY had the honor of setting the tone.
A warm-up to get the engines going, yes — but also an invitation to feel the gentle rhythm of connection, the subtle beauty of something just beginning to bloom 🌱

Deep house with soul, and an energy that rises slowly, like the dawn.
Thank you for being with us, wherever you are 🌍

🤘 Niki Sadeki presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 305 🤘

After a short delay, we are finally able to present the long-awaited podcast by Niki Sadeki. A companion from the very beginning of our project.

Her deep, tribal-like sound is incredibly hypnotic. Sometimes it's even mystical. Sometimes spooky, but always a sound that makes you want to dance. Perfect for an after-hours session, in our opinion. The mix they recorded for us is excellent and bursts with creativity and a love of the little things. The first ten minutes alone are worth listening to, taking you straight into another world.

Music that is perfectly made for every Afterhour.

Thank you so much for this epic piece of podcast.
