Yes, I know Clark. REALLY nice guy - no pretense or haughty airs about him
at all...very much a regular guy and genuine person. Clark really *is*
about music and his tastes are eclectic; he spins what he likes and while
he's very much up on things, he hasn't fallen into any purely "trendy" sets
when I've heard him spin. He is indeed working with Hawtin on M-Nus. He's
usually seen with Liz Copeland, Detroit Public Radio disc jockey who is
very much entrenched in the Detroit music scene as well - and is also
eclectic musically. They make a great pair.
I know of no sets by Clark which are archived, but I can't listen through
my PC, so I'm not the best one to ask. AFAIK, Clark doesn't have anything
out of his own. I'll have to ask him about that next time I bump into him.
He spins monthly at my friend's bar in Detroit.
