Reveal Yourself to the Pure Elements of Groove in the Afternoon

This set is a nature spell, an afternoon praise break, the trees shook with us as we followed the source energy through the drum beat with disco, house, gospel, all kinds of soulful music for the funky people of the rainbow. 

I am reminiscing to this. It brings me back to visions of the sun peaking as white light through clouds, the sweat, the incense, the smiles, the moments of elation and rhythmic sensation. 

Thank you for letting me play music from my heart for you this afternoon. My one woman jazz takes many bumps twists turns, and you all were there for the journey! It felt so good. Your energy & memories are diffused into these sounds now too. Gratitude to all the forces that brought me here, to be a conduit of joy - Dee Diggs

RA Live - 2018.06.16 - Octo Octa, Sónar, Barcelona

Recording of @call-super & @shanticeleste's set at Lente Kabinet Festival 2019.

"The first (and probably only) recording of us playing together. After a delayed flight Shanti arrived 5 minutes before the start of the closing set for the Tweede Kamer on Saturday. It felt whirlwindy and the crowd didn't seem to want us to get too settled. The Beautiful Swimmers had already cued it up for a lively closing, and it all seemed to just fly into something special. Thanks to everyone involved, CS + SC."

Now one of dance music’s most respected DJs, Avalon Emerson first made a name for herself in the storied warehouse scene of her birthplace, San Francisco, before relocating to Berlin in 2013. Over a decade of performances at the famed Berghain led to appearances at numerous festivals around the world which all cemented Emerson, and her evocative, genre- and decade-spanning sets, as perennially in demand. 

In 2020, she released her first full-length collection: a contribution to the longrunning DJ-Kicks series (which Resident Advisor described as “The sound of a well-honed DJ at the top of her game.”), nestled alongside a steady stream of remix releases for the likes of Four Tet, Slowdive, Robyn and more.

Next up was 2023’s Avalon Emerson & The Charm, an instant classic which saw Emerson exploring her singing voice and more traditional songwriting outside of the boundaries of her dance music work.  Created after a move to New York, the resulting & The Charm album was released to critical acclaim, landing on numerous critics’ best-of-the-year lists.

The stage is now set, then, for her to carve out a wholly unique path, and with the help of new label home and indie giant, Dead Oceans, Emerson is poised to connect her various musical endeavors to create an untouchably rich output of material. First up is Perpetual Emotion Machine, consisting of songs created for her DJ sets, delivered via a living, evolving project and announced ahead of her worldwide tour.
