Used a bunch of classic synths to make this sweet commercial track to underlay a video. You can hear an Arp 2600, Jupiter 8, a Buchla Easel and more!

Avalon Frost realized from childhood her ability to be creative, but the road to chart success and international dance floors never included seriously considering music as a career. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Portishead, Tricky, Grace Jones, David Bowie and Massive Attack, the Atlanta native followed up graduation from film school with several years behind the scenes on music videos for the city’s booming rap scene, feature films, and industrials. Avalon also freelanced writing lyrics for local commercial jingles and singing backup for unsigned artists. Looking for fulfillment and thinking about “a real career", she moved to Washington, DC to attend grad school.

The local market for event singers and DC's bustling electronic dance music scene provided an outlet for her voice and songwriting. Then opportunity knocked with something more: Answering an ad for a single-shot drum’n bass track, Frost met producer ESP of the Liquid Gurus. A year later, while the trio shopped a Liquid Gurus demo, Avalon’s unique vocal presence caught the attention of Bedrock recording artist Holmes Ives (aka Memnon/Oko Tek/Ova).

Released by Yoshitoshi in February 2005, the pair’s 2x12 inch single, “8 Letters”, quickly burned its way onto international DJ charts to become one of the label’s best-selling track of all time. Featuring exclusive remixes by Mark Knight and Martijn Ten Velden, Tommyboy, and Richard Earnshaw, and bolstered by spins on some of the world’s hottest dance floors. "8 Letters" would go on to be featured on dozens of compilations including Roger Sachez's Release Yourself, Vol. 4, Ultra Record’s Bar Grooves: Manhattan, Hed Kandi’s World Series Live: Paris and Peter Rauhofer’s I Love New York. In 2007, the anthem was re-released with new remixes by the Starkillers, Kamisshake, Cedric Gervais and Ori Morag & Dan Snazelle. Veteran producer/DJ, Victor Calderone, also used the track for a mashup with Celeda’s “Let the Music Lift You Up.”

Following the success of “8 Letters,” Avalon has been featured on tracks by Delphi,“Break My Fall” and “Take It Back”, as well as the club anthem “Let It Burn” from German-born house impresario, Vincent Thomas. Leveraging official remixes by Jean Claude Ades and Paul Harris of Dirty Vegas, “Let It Burn” received strong critical acclaim and record radio and club play. 

Avalon’s most recent release is “Get Somethin’” with Cuban-American dj/producer, Luminakus.
