Muzik was a UK dance music magazine published by IPC Media from 1995 to 2003. Aimed at serious dance music fans rather than weekend clubbers, its writers included a number of well-known DJs, including Kris Needs, Rob Da Bank and Spoony. The magazine sold over 50,000 copies a month at its peak, but was closed down by IPC Media just one issue short of its 100th edition.

Muzik is also a musical genre coined by the band HUMANWINE. In their words, "To limit ourselves to a singular genre counteracts our purpose." This was a reaction to an onslaught of questions concerning their genre bending nature. The "hyphon-based" descriptions of their music eventually brought about the term "muzik" both as a revolt against corporate sales tactics and the idea that the art-form itself is something that can be or should be described with such "meaningless" words.
