A.K.A URANO

KRISTO is a seasoned Techno and House DJ hailing from Chile, with nearly a decade of experience under his belt. Since 2015, he has been enthralling audiences with his dynamic and eclectic sets. Currently residing in Manchester, UK, Kristo has successfully navigated the challenges of integrating into multiple music scenes, having previously showcased his talents across clubs and raves in Australia.

Kristo's journey began in the vibrant party nights of his hometown in Chile, where he first cut his teeth as a DJ. Relocating to Australia, and now Manchester, presented new challenges, requiring him to rebuild his network and establish his reputation from the ground up. His dedication and unique sound have earned him a place in the underground scene, where he continues to innovate and push boundaries.

With a deep love for the underground, Kristo's sets are a rich tapestry of hypnotic, deep, and heavy grooves, seamlessly blending Techno and House. He draws inspiration from the pioneering tracks of Detroit Techno and the rhythmic innovations of European Techno, particularly from Berlin, Germany. His appreciation for these classic sounds informs his modern sets, creating a fusion that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking.

Kristo's musical selection is versatile and dynamic, ranging from the harder, more intense sounds of Techno to the soulful and expressive vibes of House. This ability to traverse genres and moods makes his performances engaging and memorable, appealing to a wide array of electronic music enthusiasts.

As he continues to evolve and expand his horizons, Kristo remains committed to exploring new sounds and delivering fresh, exciting experiences with each performance. His journey from Chile to Australia, and now Manchester, is a testament to his passion and resilience, and his music reflects a profound respect for the roots of Techno and House while always looking ahead to the future.

Playing a DJ set is like preparing pasta sauce: First you need to catch all the ingredients, then prepare everything and have a taste of every single one here and there. Put it all together and slowly cook it up, let it boil, reduce the heat a lil, keep it sizzling and cook it up again. Repeat. 

Cheers

EP:01 Holographic Release - Jules David & Timmus, Vincent Casanova
EP:02 soon: Jules David & Ben Abrahams remixed by Herck & Jay Tripwire

*Vadim Svoboda of Makesense about my Rupert Wall mix:  "GREAT MIX Katharine, I have nothing to say but: tight, personal, varied but very homogenous... top notch."  

*Feeder Sound Romania: “her recordings are intense and with a sophisticated perspective on sounds and rhythms." 

Those who crave nourishing sonic sessions have followed Katharine’s journey along the Australian East Coast alongside her musical partner Ben Abrahams for over two decades as they’ve influenced the scene with their exciting taste & consistent delivery of stimulating underground house & techno, in clubs & outdoors. Known for 'that sound', they uncompromisingly brought West Coast house to the Australian underground scene.

Together they created ‘Strange Brew’, an all ages acid-house vinyl party at the Billinudgel Pub, Byron Bay, & for their first gatherings there, the infamous 'Shed' was built;  revelling in the Outback for sunset was deliciously surreal, dancing to stripped back house grooves amongst the gum trees. 

They ran eight extremely memorable years of Saturday nights at Elsewhere Bar on the Gold Coast. Katharine played psychedelic house before Ben's killer 5 hour sets, then both joined together for the heaving sweaty early morning hours.  Elsewhere won Best Music for a Club in Australia at the Sydney Bar Music Awards at that time. All vinyl back then.

Katharine had the first of her two children before returning to Melbourne and putting on high-vibe parties at the infamous Killing Time Bar & My Aeon,  always with a tight crew of Australia’s best underground djs.  

Katharine made mixes for Art-E Romania and the Microtechno Podcast series 10 years ago, having long been recognised for her way with intricate sounds, particularly with Romanian collectives and lovers of micro-house &  minimal.  She appreciates music which alludes to the transcendent - both gently & powerfully.  As an undeniably charged up being she just keeps on lovingly creating fresh soundtracks for her friends’ lives. Last year she made 21 mixes for amazing collectives around the world, including Half is Enough Romania's Strangers in the Night: each session is an experience. 

Her unique way elevates and deeply satisfies at both sunset & sunrise, and she has played magical closing sets out in the forest, most recently for the Comfort Zone crew on their final day on the main stage by the creek. 

Find her playing at Killing Time Bar & Fiftyfive Bar: where she seamlessly mixes fresh minimal with the best of early 2000s West Coast house, she's at Motion:Theory parties & playing for local crews, but experience her anytime through the Motion:Theory mix series and the sessions she makes for collectives who appreciate her taste and storytelling ability: 
it’s LUSH MINIMAL for the dancefloor.
