Sinjin Hawke has been making moves in 2012. He already proved to us all in 2011 that he can drop some proper and massive productions with his great Bootleg edits of The-Dream and Beyonce and his The Lights EP. 2012 found Sinjin Hawke trekking across North America DJing and debuting an impressive live set that he brought to LA’s Boiler Room and NYC’s Warm UP at MoMA PS1.
