The Friday night roll call was well underway. The crew had begun to assemble as they steadily anticipated the night which lay before them. Driving out into the countryside thir faces glowed with eager excitement at the thought of getting to the site. Little did their parents know that they were the dancers of the new generation and that the fields by night had become their playgrounds. On the crackly old radio an mc shouted gloriously out over the tracks, shout outs came flying in across tune after tune. The night had only just begun. 

Tristan Grace is the first to appear on a new label run by the Warehouse Project's founder Krsko. Titled 'I Walked By Night' the label draws upon his experience amongst the scene across many years. Tristan Grace delivers the grooves on 'Tune Called Shout Outs'.

PREMIERE: Tristan Grace - Tune Called Shout Outs [I Walked By Night]

DJ/Producer/Co-Creator/Human/Multi-Dimensional Being/All That Is/I AM

Krysko, over the last 19 years, has held some of the most respected and revered residencies within the UK; The Redlight at the original Sankeys Soap, and now The Warehouse Project, where he is the original and longest standing resident.

To truly establish yourself as a respected resident you need to build deep knowledge of these 3 elements; the music you play, the pioneers of this music and the people who you play to week-in, week-out. Krysko really has developed himself in this mould and delivers exactly what any respected DJ should.

Through his career to date Krysko has played the world's most respected nights and festivals throughout the UK, from Sub Club, Fabric, We Love... Space Ibiza, Back to Basics, The Arches, Ministry of Sound, Electric Chair to twice closing the Radio 1 stage at Glastonbury, Parklife, Bestival, Sonar - Barcelona, Secret Solstice - Iceland, Global Gathering, Beatherder, Electric Elephant - Croatia to name but a few… and with regular international dates around Europe and the US including New York, Chicago and Minneapolis. 

Having shared the stage with a plethora of dance music’s most influential individuals including Derrick Carter, Andrew Weatherall, Mike Banks, Theo Parrish, François Kevorkian, Moodymann, Frankie Knuckles, and Chic’s Nile Rodgers. These aren't a random selection, just a small selection of people he has performed alongside and of whom he cites these as his musical heroes. This being a testament to his achievements and respect he has gained through his career.

The youngest ever person to play two Live Radio 1 Essential Mixes from 2000 – 2010, and most recently his third in 2013 for the Essential Mix 20th Anniversary where he played back-to-back with Derrick L. Carter.
