Revered producer and composer Daniel Avery announced this Summer his ambitious sixth studio album Tremor. Channelling every corner of his sound, the record is a bold and transportive body of work through euphoric shoegaze, submerged techno, ambient soundscape and industrial bliss.

On Tremor, 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, yuné pinku, and Cecile Believe. Each artist leaves their indelible mark, yet the record’s true power lies in the communal spirit at its core. The first taste of that spirit is felt in ‘Rapture In Blue’, a slow-motion breakbeat that lifts Cecile Believe’s otherworldly vocal into the stratosphere while celestial guitars are supplied by Ride legend and current Oasis member Andy Bell. It’s a track that perfectly encapsulates Tremor’s cinematic power and Avery’s mastery of melding ambient beauty with thunderous force.

An immersive and deeply textured journey, Tremor unfolds like a lucid dream—an expansive, collaborative creation. “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.”
