Nick Hook is a serial collaborator, incessant creator, and a bona fide force in New York’s musical underground. He’s a producer, musician, engineer, and musical mentor, who has worked with everyone from Rashad and Novelist, to Egyptian Lover, Bernie Worrell and Young Thug. He is a long-time collector of vintage synths and drum machines, which are permanently on at his Greenpoint studio so he’s ready to go, no matter who comes through the door. It’s important to Hook’s process that no two projects sound the same, who does whatever it takes to make regular left turns and continue to push his sound forward.
