Beswerda, also known as Koen Beswerda, is a Dutch melodic techno dj/producer. With releases on Afterlife, Oddity, Weiter, Venom Recordings and more.
Beswerda is a Dutch and Rotterdam based artist who is ready to take you on a musical and emotional journey with the combination of minimal and melodic techno. Within his music you’ll experience the emotion that was felt when the music is created. With surprising drops and organic drums his music is varying every time you will hear him play. He really has a unique take on what melodic techno should be like. The combination of minimal, Indie Dance and melodic techno is something new for the clubs.
In 2015 he recorded and released his first single ‘Growing’ on the label Tronic by Christian Smith. After his first release he did several other releases on labels such as Infinite Depth and WEITER. Within these releases, he leant his music for remixes by artists like VNTM, Enos and Erly Tepshi. After several releases, Beswerda took some time to determine his sound better and develop something that really matches how he wanted to be. A short sabbatical to figure everything out and focus on some new material. He came back with Turmoil.
In 2021 he released the track called ‘Turmoil’ on the label Afterlife. This track was played by his good friend Colyn every set when he was touring in the summer of 2021, so Tale of Us decided to add this track to their Realm of Consciousness pt. V compilation. It really made a mark for his career.
Beswerda’s music has been played by all the major artists all over the world, where his music will dazzle most electronic music’s leading clubs and festivals.
