Kristian Josifoski (b. 1996) is a composer and percussionist based in Boston who's interests include: integrating elements of the musical vernacular into a new music idiom, using music as a metaphor for the philosophical concept of difference and repetition, enjoys working with crossfades, proportionality resonance and composed theatre.

bepo's shift into music production came when he moved to Halle, where he digged deep into the (dance)floor to discover a flourishing underground scene. His fascination with electronic music ignited early, driven by getting lost and delving into previously unknown soundscapes.
He has embraced the art of letting go of control and experiencing liberation in the process.
Influenced by artists such as Iorie, Frida Darko, Cabaret Nocturne and Damon Jee, bepo's musical journey has settled into a slow rhythm where intricate threads of light and darkness weave their way through his scratchy sonic rug - a fusion of bouncy melodies and chugging rhythms.
The release of the widely recognised Chironji EP on Serafin Audio Imprint marked bepo's breakthrough, revealing a profound realisation of music's ability to touch ears and hearts.
Looking ahead, bepo is excited to release heaps of new music, driven by a desire to share his evolving style with the world.
