Tristan Black

If you’re lucky enough to work with Tristan Black you’ll discover at once he’s both indelibly thoughtful and ravenously ambitious; graciously humble, overly well-mannered even, yet a creative ‘tour de force’ beyond human propensity. One of those rare restless few who effortlessly excels beyond his autodidactic talents, Tristan is a self-made man, not to mention a self-confessed chatterbox! And while his idiosyncratic gestures open and shut according to his comfort meter, Tristan possesses a wildly wonderful wit, which made him an instant hit with fans across Australia after appearing on the 2024 season of Channel 9’s ratings juggernaut Married at First Sight. Post nuptials, he’s still looking for love and has joined Jules & Cam (the most successful couple from MAFS) and Steph & Gian (the highest profit-earning couple from The Block) in an up-and-coming original pilot series, Renovate Me, Please! set shortly for launch across select social media platforms. Produced by The Lime Agency and Unboxed Media, it’s a top-to-bottom image overhaul meets home makeover series unlike any other!

From his start-out days hash-slinging at KFC through to ‘Carnival’ cruising the high seas, Tristian’s successfully spearheaded a spontaneously skilled career trajectory despite his personal hurdles. By day he calls lights, camera, action on all things entertainment at an enviable venue in Sydney’s glittering metropolis. But after dark Tristan tears it up on the d-floor, taking his high-demand DJ decks cross country. Having worked with impressive local and global artists including Stace Cadet, Dimitri of Paris, Norman Jay, KLP, Jaded, Sammy Porter, Roger Sanchez, and EDM duo The Presets to name just a few, in a world where culture is nowadays atomised, Tristan’s solo sounds serve up bouncy, blatant euphoria (how you imagine strobe-lights might sound!) – the kind that makes a specific time and place feel part of the music. Developing his headline DJ deets via Your Shot, it’s the world’s biggest DJ comp in which only a hand-chosen few are plucked from a pool of 10,000+ contestants and put through an intense 6-week bootcamp in the hopes of scoring a set at one of the biggest international music festivals (imagine Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters from Marvel’s X-Men, only for up-and-coming DJs!). Speaking of ‘superpowers,’ Tristan’s rapid rise in the branding and event spaces as an up-and-coming digital influencer will likely only be eclipsed by his ‘vitalizzante’ vocals broadcasting over the radio airwaves sometime soon…and you ‘heard’ it here first!
