Date TBA

United States-based producer Justin Hawkes, formerly released as Flite, brings a unique musical dynamic to the table. His range of production sets him apart in the leagues of global drum & bass producers, sculpting between raw power-infused anthems and intricate cinematics full of atmosphere and subtext, as well as many performances of his own vocals. With a long catalog of works under Flite, his new era as Justin Hawkes represents a refined look into his musical expression.

Accumulating DJ and radio support from some of the world's top DJs, such as Andy C, Porter Robinson, Netsky, Sub Focus, Wilkinson, and more, Justin's music has resonated through top clubs and festivals across the globe. His debut LP 'Existential' (2022), with multiple nominations for the Drum & Bass Arena annual awards for best album and best track, his out-of-leftfield country rock DNB anthem 'Better Than Gold.' Best known for his ever-exciting energy as a producer and mirrored by his flow and fiery enthusiasm as a DJ, Justin's movement across the world has cemented him as a representative for Drum & Bass from North America, part of a fresh wave of talent bringing new life to the venerable Drum & Bass scene.
