3rd May 2008: Mark Hawkins
April 7, 2008

Having spent recent years touring across Europe living in Berlin and Poland, and playing gigs far out on the new European frontier of Russia, Ukraine and Lithuania it is with great pleasure that we announce the return of Mark Hawkins. Never one to stand still his style is constantly evolving, taking influence from his surroundings and the people that he meets merging fresh new sounds and old influences in his own inimitable style.
Mark will be playing a five hour dj set, starting at 10am all the way through to 3am. This promises to be a truly epic journey - warming things up nicely will be some of the more eclectic sounds, electronica, minimal techno and old Chicago stuff.
For the main course you can count on Mark to pick out the best techno from last ten or more years - Audion, Dancemania, a bit of old Vogel, a bit of new Vogel, classics from Mosquito, Sativae, Tresor and Peacefrog to name a few; there’ll be some unreleased gems too - a mental minimal track from Tim Exile and of course the latest creations from the Hawkins studio.
Is if that wasn’t enough the cherry on the cake so to speak is particularly good, having recently been reunited with his Spiral Tribe and Network 23 records - the set will finish with some old school squat party faves.
Certainly something for everyone there, personally I can’t wait to hear it all.
In the meantime check the music archive for one of Mark’s previous recordings at Pure Filth.
