Kirk Thompson (born 1968, in Bristol, England), better known as Krust or DJ Krust, is an English drum and bass producer and DJ who is part of the Bristol based Reprazent collective, as well as releasing his own solo material such as "Burnin" which was released on Kickin Records.
Krust was interested in hip hop, acid house and rave music as a youth, and was a member of the group Fresh 4, which reached #9 of the UK Singles Chart in late 1989 with "Wishing on a Star", but did not release another record.
In 1994, Krust along with Roni Size produced "Witchcraft" an early drumfunk track. He is most famous in his own right for the instrumental drum and bass track "Warhead" (1997). "Warhead" has been remixed several times by both Krust and other artists and collectives including Ram Trilogy. Krust is also known for his 1996 release "Angles" on V Recordings and "True Stories" released on Talkin' Loud in 1998. He has had two minor hits in the UK Singles Chart; these were "Coded Language" (1999) featuring Saul Williams, and "Snapped It" (2002). They peaked at #66 and #58 respectively, each spending one week in the chart.
punch the clock and assume the position and never ask for any more. live and die going through there motions and never knowing what the fuck for. turn the dollar. dig the hole deeper. regret as you get another year older. a foot in the grave, a cogin a wheel. bred to be slaves to there ideals. here among the lifeless. the worthless. the hopeless. keep me to tired to think. keep me to fucked to care. but tomorrows another day, thats what the hopeless say.
