Superhiks (Macedonian: Суперхикс) is a Macedonian ska-punk and reggae band with occasional swing, Latin and Balkan folk music elements from Skopje, Republic of Macedonia. They gained international prominence after appearing on MTV France, MTV Israel and MTV Adria. They were also the first Macedonian band to get on the top chart of MTV Adria.
The band is formed by three high school friends: Petar Mladenovski (the frontman and bass guitar player), Boris Minov (guitar player) and Zoran Žežov (drums), up in the early 1990s, starting with mixture of ska and hardcore punk music. After several personal changes, today, the 6 membered band also features a 3–piece horn section consisting of saxophone Sime Zlatkov, trumpet Aleksandar Spasovski, Trombone Branko Ilievski and Dj Goce Lalkovski as well as drums and percussion set played by Darko Popov-Daro
