“Welcome to an elaborate musical universe created by Gavin Hardkiss. Hawke characterizes the many collaborations and original sound clashes executed by Gavin, one of the world's most renowned and mysterious DJ/Producers. In 1992 he recorded the first single "3 Nudes in a Purple Garden" which was featured on the classic Hardkiss album Delusions Of Grandeur. Out of print, this album is so coveted that used copies sell for $200 on E-Bay.
Over the past decade, he has remixed the likes of Elton John and The Beatles, performed with Snoop Dogg and The Chemical Brothers and released original recordings in Spain, France, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States. Gavin¹s focus, however, has consistently been on his artist albums released under the guise Hawke, with Namaquadisco released on Sunburn Recordings in 1998 and Heatstroke released on Six Degrees Records in 2002. Now, Hawke presents the third original album called Love Won Another.
The album is a dazzling collection of songs culled from sessions with a variety of musicians, friends, lovers and artists who visited the Calistoga retreat over a period of 2 years. Guests featured on the album include: Steve miller band original guitarist David Denny, Earth, Wind and Fire back-up singer Maestro and Michael Franti guitarist Jay Bowman.”
