Coming through as a producer in the early 2000s, nothing much seemed normal. 90s dance innovation gave way to a lack of focus, with increasingly innovative and accessible technology making the sounds heard on dancefloors more eclectic, at the same time the parties felt less inspired.  Against this backdrop, Mark Hawkins stood out from the crowd. Watching one of his staggeringly raw live sets, ripping up the floor with a combination of jacking Chicago house and bare bones techno was to see a pragmatic idealist carving out a space, unashamed to reference his inspirations with humour and bombast.  It was inevitable that Mark’s boundless spirit would see him push through the barriers of the UK’s more experimental audiences to gain greater presence with his entrance to a more underground House sound.  Releases followed on Dixon Avenue Basement Jams and Clone before arriving on Houndstooth, blending House and Techno in a way that reached for the sky even while their roots were clearly planted firmly in the ground. Whilst always tough, the music progressed from being identifiable through its rawness to its increasing sophistication.
On ‘The New Normal’ Mark Hawkins has dug deeper, gathering his influences and ideals into a more experimental, yet relevant and cohesive whole. These twelve tracks represent a blossoming of Mark’s creativity; free from the constraints of dance-floor delivery, exploring unfamiliar territory, rampaging over a landscape of electro-funk, body-rocking house, experimental electronica, euphoric pop, and reflective vibes all underpinned by his accomplished melodic sensibility.

The New Normal

PREMIERE : Mark Hawkins - No One Can Find Us

I create Press & Promotional campaigns to promote new music releases. Predominantly 'Underground House', 'Techno', bit of 'Balearic' and my beloved 'Disco'.   I'd like to think I have a very personal approach, working with friends & contacts simply sharing great music over a chat. I choose only to work with music I adore, so you can be sure I'll be passionate when I am promoting your stuff . I strive to get your release placed, mentioned and played in all of the 'relevant' places as well as getting the 'right people' to endorse it. I'll provide you with good quality feedback to help drive the sales of your release pre launch as well as placing physical records into the hands of VIP players.  As with these things.. it's hard to predict exactly what we will achieve... but what I can promise is that I'll throw a hell of a lot passion and enthusiasm at it and that, coupled with my track record so far,  the result shouldn't be  too shabby. In my opinion it takes a lot of love, time and hard work crafting your release. Investing in what I do, pushes it into the spotlight, giving your release the best possible chance to succeed..

You can contact me on: sa@shinemusic.co.uk
Please send the music, some info on you, and your desired release date for a fast response.

Mark Hawkins is a studio based musical artist with a career spanning more than 25 years.

Cutting his teeth in the UK underground party scene throughout the 90s, he has built an extensive body of work collaborating with a wide variety of record labels and artists, in numerous styles of electronic music under many different aliases, including his given name.

After two and a half decades of performing both as a live electronic act, and as a DJ, at many events around the world, which had included many of the most well known clubs and festivals, he decided to narrow his focus down to his main passion of writing, producing and engineering music in his Berlin studio, working on both his own material, and as a sonic “gun for hire”, assisting other artists in achieving their own aspirations in the studio environment.

Mark is a reclusive character who is more interested in sculpting sound, and searching for the perfect beat than promoting his own work, and as such declines to participate in the social media world which dominates contemporary culture.

Preferring to immerse himself in the world of audio manipulation, he has become a go-to studio engineer amongst those in the know, who want their own sound to take on a more professional sheen, or even a more retrospective aesthetic that relates to music from days gone by. 

But this has in no way slowed down his own output of material, in fact, without the distraction of unwanted self promotion or touring, he has been able to place an increased emphasis on crafting exactly the kind of music he wants to create for himself.

Looking ahead, Hawkins will continue to forge his own path via his artistry, blending styles and blurring the boundaries between genres, and will inevitably in the process discover and create exciting new works.
