The global 15 date tour “All Knight Long” will see Toolroom Records founder Mark Knight play extended 6+ hour sets at some of the world’s finest clubs. 

With more demand than ever for clubs and festivals to pack their line-ups with as many names as possible, the art of the extended set is in danger of being consigned to the history books. But as DJs and clubbers know, the extended set can often be where the greatest dancefloor stories unfold, and the most powerful and long-lasting impressions made.

For me, the mark of a true DJ is someone who can take people on a journey for the entire night. Playing extended sets is something I’ve done many times before and love doing, so I was really keen to put mutiple dates together at some of my favourite clubs in the world. 

We’ve specifically chosen intimate venues to I can take people on a really special trip throughout the night: places where you can look around and still be surrounded by the same few hundred people you started out dancing with hour before. I’ve been planning the tour for months, and I can wait to get started.

The “All Knight Long” tour sets out to capture this very unique magic, putting one of the world’s foremost DJs front and centre for the entire night, giving him the freedom to work through his vast record collection across a wide spectrum of dance music, from soulful house to funk, garage, house, disco, tech house and techno. Launching this April, the “All Knight Long” tour including Womb, Tokyo; Output, New York and Basing House, London.

The “All Knight Long” tour accompanied by the launch of Odyssey, a short film from Grammy-nominated electronic artist Mark Knight and Toolroom about the art of the extended DJ set. Featuring interviews from some of the DJs and industry figures that fiercely champion the merits of playing all night long, Odyssey is a celebration of giving the music and the DJ room to breathe.
