Hawk I is a central part of the NiceUp crew. His works have included national and international tour promotion, music reviews, interviews, film screenings and radio. He has deejayed around Aotearoa, Melbourne and Europe, bringing high energy and vibes to all his sets.

Hawk I says, "This mix celebrates 10 years of Nice Up. It features many artists we have worked with over the years (it would be impossible to include everybody!), and some artists we will hopefully work with in the future! The 10 year celebrations will continue all 2015, thanks to all the people who have supported us over the years. Respect!"

NiceUp promotes reggae and bass culture in Aotearoa, New Zealand. We run the crucial Kiwi reggae portal NiceUp.org.nz and promote loads of gigs and events.

Greetings, Selector Hawk I here, I hail from Wellington New Zealand, currently residing in Melbourne city. I love selecting Roots, Ska, Dancehall, Modern Roots, Dub, Steppers Hip-Hop, Dubstep & Jungle from across the board not being restricted to a particular genre or era, whilst staying up to di times with new tunes, discovering the history of the foundation tunes and representing local and New Zealand artists.  With that said of course playing to the crowd is important whilst staying true to your own to your own sound is fundamental.
