Musik is the second studio album by the Canadian electronic music artist Richie Hawtin as Plastikman. It was released on November 8, 1994 through Plus 8 records and Novamute records. Musik was released to wide critical acclaim and is considered by many to be Richie Hawtin's best album as Plastikman. It presents both his bass driven ambiance and his stripped down beat experiments.

In a contemporary review, The Guardian gave a very favourable review of the album, stating that the album "somehow managing to salvage sounds which others feel but fail to express. Musik is music as you've never heard it before." The review concluded that "when people look back and hail Kraftwerk, Larry Heard, DJ Pierre and Derrick May as the most influential artists in this genre, they will soon include Plastikman in this roll-call."
