Turntablism Meets Soul Music: Asian Hawk
Some turntablists have been criticized for lacking “funkiness” or “soul.” Not Asian Hawk.
A native of Bristol, U.K., Hawk has won four DMC U.K. Team championships as part of The Disablists and one U.K. championship as a solo turntablist. He’s also a talented singer and producer.

Follow Asian Hawk on Facebook, Instagram, SoundCloud, Twitter, and YouTube.
