Mako & The Hawk

Mako & The Hawk are always on the cut the first Friday of every month at Mr Wolf's, Bristol, spinning dirty funk and soul, old school hip-hop, reggae and party breaks! The Hawk drops northern soul on the Record Kicks label as well as being bassist for mod-funk legends Big Boss Man (Blow Up Records) while Mako is editor of long-running funk, soul, hip-hop, reggae, breaks blog monkeyboxing.com. The duo also produce remixes and bootlegs (sshh!), several of which have received airplay on Craig Charles BBC Radio 6 Funk & Soul Show. Their debut (jointly released with Funk Blasters label owner and producer Morlack), the 'Ghetto Assassins EP' went to number one in both the JunoDownload breakbeat and hip-hop sales charts.


"I've got a real soft spot for what this pair get up to" (Craig Charles)


“Even though their name sounds like a seventies cop show (in an awesome way) Mako & the Hawk don’t bust perps, they bust out wicked funk mash-ups.” (bootlegblog)
