Mako & The Hawk,
Boca 45.
MAKO & THE HAWK:
They might sound like a seventies cop show but Mako & The Hawk are always on the cut, producing and spinning floor-filling dirty funk and soul, old school hip-hop, reggae and party breaks.
Since forming in 2009 the pair have had vinyl and digital releases on Breakbeat Paradise, Freestyle Records, Funk Blasters and Tour of Booty, garnered frequent radio plays on Craig Charles' BBC Radio 6 Funk And Soul Show, supported the likes of Jstar and The Bongolian and held down a never-less-than-packed seven year long residency at Mr Wolf's in central Bristol.
The Hawk is bassist for mod-funk legends and BBC Radio 2 darlings Big Boss Man, while Mako also produces as one half of Mako & Mr Bristow and is the long-running editor of music site monkeyboxing.com
This autumn will finally see the long-awaited vinyl seven inch release of their throwback boom-bap double A-side featuring rapper Chima Anya on beats created from never-previously-sampled early 70s Stateside funky soul.
It goes without saying that Mako & The Hawk need no excuse to get on the wheels of steel - but they are also taking DJ bookings now.
"I've got a real soft spot for what this pair get up to!" (Craig Charles).
BOCA 45:
Boca 45 is a Bristolian legend who's earned a mighty rep for his work with Andy Smith as "Dynamo Productions", with Gee Ealey as Malachai (Domino Records), with World Champion DJ Woody as BocaWoody plus other collaborative projects alongside his many solo records on various record la- bels. Banksy requested Scott Boca to DJ the opening party at Dismal Land in 2015 & has A List fans such as Serge from Kasabian & Huey Morgan at BBC 6 Music.
