Hawke

*Gavin Hardkiss* started producing music in 1991 when he moved to San Francisco to start the eponymous record label Hardkiss Music. He chose the moniker Hawke since his name Gavin means White Hawk in Gaelic. Managing the Hardkiss label in the early ’90s, he helped foster a new psychedelic dance sound with releases of his own creation as well as released from Rabbit in the Moon, God Within, Little Wing, T Tauri and Symbiosis.

Later he would continue to provide A&R duties for Sunburn Recordings.
