Optimal Request 008 | @niko-hoke-666100076

Brussels-based Niko Hoke has been shaping his musical identity behind the decks since the age of 13. After completing his studies in physiotherapy, he chose to dedicate himself fully to DJing and music production.

Rooted in the raw energy of hardgroove, Niko’s sets are a dynamic blend of percussive drive,
hypnotic rhythms, and unexpected twists. His sound draws from the technical finesse of artists like Funk Assault and is infused with the bold spirit of the emerging hardhouse scene, which continues to influence his aesthetic and creative direction.

Currently a resident at Leuven’s Rumba nightclub, Niko is also the founder of Loft Experience, a
collective and platform pushing fresh underground sounds and community-driven events.
