It was obvious from an early age that Jon's destiny lay within the world of music. In his early teens his love for the bass guitar began, and while living the 'Madchester' house scene he honed his talent. A true 24hr party king, his love of music soon saw him step behind the decks, and a natural DJ and performer was born.

Jon’s also a backing vocalist and singer/ songwriter with a number of A listed hits in his repertoire, and last but certainly not least, he’s one half of chart topping house duo HERD&FITZ.

Nominated as best breakthrough producer in the 2006 House Music Awards, his creative talents have seen him remix for Robbie Rivera, Toolroom and Ministry of Sound. Jon’s Herd & Fitz anthem “Just Can’t Get Enough hit Top 10 in the UK charts, while his credible floor filling house tracks and remixes rocked dance floors around the world. 

2007 saw residencies for Pukka Up Ibiza and Castle Club Cyprus while “You’ll See Me” was set for major release after being hammered around the clubs and bars of the white isle, throughout the summer season. Internationally Jon appeared in Oslo, Malta, Portugal, Poland and Russia and was asked to mix the Subliminal Sunsets album for Erick Morillo, which received great response and accolade.

TREMOR - THE NEW ALBUM - OUT NOW

https://danielavery.ffm.to/tremor

Revered producer and composer Daniel Avery returns with a new album and live show, his most ambitious works to date. Channelling every corner of his sound, Tremor is a bold and transportive body of work through euphoric shoegaze, submerged techno, ambient soundscape and industrial bliss. It remains unmistakably Avery, yet dramatically evolved.


With the album Avery has welcomed an inspiring cast of collaborators, including the likes of Alison Mosshart (The Kills), Walter Schreifels (Quicksand / Rival Schools), bdrmm, Julie Dawson (NewDad), yeule, Ellie, Art School Girlfriend, yunè pinku, and Cecile Believe. Each artist leaves their indelible mark, yet the record’s true power lies in the communal spirit at its core.

“This is a living and breathing collective,” says Avery. “Since the earliest recordings, Tremor felt like a studio in the sky, a space in time through which we could all pass as artists”, he reflects. “It’s the welcoming spirit of acid house with the doors flung open wider still to allow in every influence from my musical journey: the warmth of distortion, the stillness inside intensity, the transcendental beauty of noise... They have always been there in my music but now it feels like those ideas are being transmitted in Technicolor. This is a record for the post-rave comedown kids, the guitar heads and anyone else who wants to come along for the ride. Everyone is welcome.”

Tremor will be released by Avery’s new home of Domino on 31st October.
