melthebell   862 #1 Posted November 16, 2017 @HawkwindHQ  14m14 minutes ago  We are very sad to let you know that our old friend & band mate DikMik, passed away early this morning. He will be loved & remembered for his innovative contributions not only to Hawkwind, but to a whole musical genre of which he was an important pioneer  Dave Brock...."I remember when DikMik joined the band, he bought himself an audio generator from Tottenham Court Road, got himself a Watkins Copycat echo unit, a fold up card table, (complete with green baize), and became one of the innovators of electronic music! It was on DikMik's suggestion, and later persistence, that we got Lemmy to join the band and you know the rest! Goodbye old chap your legend lives on" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

horribleblob   212 #4 Posted November 16, 2017 Quality of recording not brilliant, but, for those who saw their live performances at this time, it matters not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
metalman   21 #5 Posted November 16, 2017 Sad to hear this news. He played on the classic Space Ritual album which is still one of my favourite listens after 40-odd years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
