Avalon Emerson has shot a series of music videos to accompany her new DJ-Kicks mix release.
Her 70-minute contribution to !K7's long running DJ-Kicks series encompasses Emerson’s maverick sound and traverses a wide range of tempos, styles and eras.
"I wanted it to be representative of how I sound in the club while incorporating new original music," Emerson says. “I thought of it as a good opportunity to summarize the last few years of DJing for me and share my original productions, covers and remixes.”
“In July 2020 my girlfriend and I drove from Los Angeles to New York City mostly following the I-70. We visited family and friends in Vegas and Mesa, where I bought a camera. We stopped at national parks, roadside canyons, small towns and midwest cities. We joined up with friends in Denver after the Rockies to finish the trek as a caravan. It was a beautiful trip.”
“I edited some of the footage from the trip into a karaoke video for my cover of Long Forgotten-Fairy Tale by The Magnetic Fields. It's one of my favorite songs.”
Watch the videos below for Long-Forgotten Fairy Tale and Wastelands and Oases.
Avalon Emerson DJ-Kicks is out now.
