MARK HAWKINS
Beginning his career in 1999 with a split EP with Michael Forshaw on the latter’s much loved Chan ’n’ Mike’s label, Hawkins was soon noticed by Saskia Slegers (AKA Miss Djax) for whom he recorded 6 eps on her well known Djax Up Beats imprint.
He has also released on, amongst others, Pro-jex, Mosquito and Hoerspielmusik. Mark has also performed regularly over the past 8 years, both Live and as a DJ in The UK, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, Malta, Czech Republic, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Poland, Russia and Australia.
His live-act is hardware only, going against the flow of laptop / ableton sets that have become the standard for so many artists, allowing him to have his own unique, but fat sound.
In 2003 Mark began his own label, Crime, which proved to be a credit to his already impressive history, and featured original and remix work from Si Begg, Bill Youngman, DJ Urban, Michael Forshaw and Rotorik alongside Marks own productions.
2004 brought a move to Berlin which brought fresh influence and experience. Rubbing shoulders with many talented musicians whilst there raised the bar with both ideas and production skills which he applied to both his productions and live performances.
In 2006 Mark moved to Gdynia, Poland, and in isolation there began work on his debut album “The Doomsday Clock”, which featured long distance collaborations with The Horrorist, Bill Youngman, AL.X.E and Polish tech-hop band Kirk.
Still touring, he noticed a lot of so-called “minimal” releases were sounding more and more like the mid nineties techno that had switched him on in the first place, and whilst DJing, was often mixing up the likes of Audion and James T Cotton, Hand on the plow artist Spandex, with early Cristian Vogel and Chicago trax from years before.
This lead to the starting point of Mark’s new project “###”. Having already released one track on a split e.p. with Digital Princezz on the German Feinwerk label, he recorded 3 tracks which were picked up by Feinwerk boss Christian Schachta, who thought they would be perfect for his up and coming “Snork” imprint. These were released in 2009 backed up with remixes from Hobo and Spandex
Mark is currently has a weekly podcast from his website, is working on new material, and has a forthcoming release due out in early 2010 on the Relax 2000 label. He is currently based in London, UK.
