Falling Light, a collaboration with Flat-e. A sound and light installation running as part of Leeds International Festival, 2 - 12 May. We have been working on this project for a long time and it features exclusively new music from me. We are down to the final tickets for the opening night. Come join us >>>

It was a total pleasure to join Mary Anne Hobbs on her BBC Radio 6 Music show. A true hero of broadcasting and a DJ who has introduced me to a wealth of music over the years. You can listen back to the mix and interview now. Be quiet and drive far away xx

Dear friends, the B-Sides & Remixes album is out today. To me the world of Song For Alpha has always been much bigger than simply the record itself - the making of it dominated my life for half a decade - so it feels good to shine a light into more corners of the process with some unheard material alongside music from the recent EPs. There’s also a whole collection of incredible remixes from a cast of special producers. Here’s the list: Actress, Anastasia Kristensen, Four Tet, Giant Swan, HAAi-, Inga Mauer, Jon Hopkins, Luke Slater, Manni Dee, Mor Elian, SHDW & Obscure Shape, Patrick Russell, Richard Fearless and Surgeon. That’s some list. Come inside and join us, I’ll see you out there soon. DA xxxx http://smarturl.it/DA_BSR

Weekend. Friday I’ll be joining Mary Anne Hobbes on her BBC Radio 6 Music show then heading to Moles for the late night antics. Saturday I’m at Drugstore Beograd with Tijana T. Best foot forward x

The April road looks like this. Some familiar places, some brand new. See you out there, wherever you are DA xx

Cooking something up. Berlin friends, see you tonight at Dystopian Griessmuehle. I play at 3am >>>>

HAAi- is the brightest star in the sky right now. An artist truly dancing to the beat of her own drum. She asked to do something special and a little different for this rework so I gave her all of the vocal parts from the album sessions, spanning several tracks and she used every one. I love this remix - it hit me hard when I first heard it. XLR8R have the first play on their site. The full B-Sides & Remixes album is out next week on Phantasy + Mute Records with the 12” to follow shortly afterwards (the vinyl also includes two more musical unicorns of the sea Mor Elian + Giant Swan) Dive in.

Manni Dee is on unstoppable form. Brutalist techno with a social conscience and a raging fire in its stomach. Go watch him play live and tell me your life hasn’t been made better in some way. I’ve had this remix for close to a year and I’ve been asked about it in every set - it tears rooms apart. The 12” is out today alongside equally great remixes by Anastasia Kristensen and Patrick Russell. The full B-Sides & Remixes collection is out 5th April on Phantasy + Mute Records. He’s a good bloke, our Manni

Announcing Song For Alpha: B-Sides and Remixes, out 5th April. I’ve recently been going through the music recorded during the album sessions which, in various forms, spanned the entire five years after Drone Logic. This re-release covers some of my favourite unreleased pieces collected together with music from the recent EPs. Alongside this, it features remixes by an entire set of incredibly special producers. Here’s the list: Actress, Anastasia Kristensen, Four Tet, Giant Swan, HAAi-, Inga Mauer, Jon Hopkins, Luke Slater, Manni Dee, Mor Elian, SHDW & Obscure Shape, Patrick Russell, Richard Fearless and Surgeon. The record feels like an insight into the bigger world of Song For Alpha and where my head has been for the last half a decade. This track is called Under The Tallest Arch and the video was directed by Tom Andrew. Big love. DA xx Pre-order - http://smarturl.it/DA_BSR

You can now listen back to my BBC 6 Music Recommends show, standing in for the mighty Mary Anne Hobbs. Some new music that has kept both my faith and my soul together in recent days. It also includes the first plays of my remix for Marie Davidson + Mor Elian's beautiful reworking of Stereo L alongside some other exclusives. Please come inside from the cold and join us, it’s pretty nice in here. DA xxx

2018 was some trip, love to everyone who was there along the way. I’m retreating into the shadows for a while but the road emerges again in March, beginning in Australia. 2019 has a lot in store. See you soon. DA xxxx

Happy new year, droogs. The last few years have been the most intense I’ve ever known. To everyone who has come to a gig, played a record to a mate, bought a t-shirt, collected the vinyl, lost themselves in the strobe: you make all of this possible. Thank you, this has been some trip. I’ve just uploaded a whole load of mixes, recordings and podcasts from the past five years to my website, all available to grab or stream in high quality (some for the first time.) It also includes my set recorded live from the NIN tour in Texas. Please come in and help yourself and I’ll see you all on the other side, I have so much to tell you about in 2019. Big, big love DA xxxxxxx danielavery.co.uk/mixes Photo by Keffer for The Night Day

New music. Presenting PSSU, a collaboration with my pal and studio neighbour Richard Fearless out now on his label Drone. The video was created by Greg Hodgson. Put it inside your heads.

It was a rush to curate lineups at Nuits Sonores and The Warehouse Project, two of my favourite places in the world, surrounded by the best group of sonic siblings a boy could ask for. Thank you everyone who was a part of them. We have made a very limited run of screen prints designed by artist Maziyar Pahlevan and they are things of beauty. Available now through the Phantasy web store. DA xxx https://lnk.to/danielavery

I recently had the pleasure of talking to Róisín Murphy for her Heineken Sync Sessions podcast. Hot topics included self doubt, Gary Glitter and losing your mind in the studio. Christmas! But nah, Róisín is a diamond and I loved talking to her. It was also cool to return to the studios where a lot of Drone Logic was recorded. The podcast is online now, ready to put into your heads. Big love xx

Thank you to everyone who was a part of the shows with Nine Inch Nails. These were special. Today is my last NTS Radio show for a while and I’ll be playing a recording of my set recorded live in Irving, Texas last week. Join me at 4pm and I’ll see you on the other side xxx

New music. Presenting PSSU, a collaboration with my good pal and studio neighbour Richard Fearless out next week on his label Drone. Resident Advisor currently have the premiere of the track 307309 (link below). Richard and I first met properly in Andrew Weatherall's bunker studio as Fearless was making Trans-Love Energies and I was starting the early stages of my first album. The music of Death In Vegas has been a part of my life for many years and as a DJ he's one of the best around. On Saturday we launch the record at Tresor.Berlin (OFFICIAL) alongside Errorbeauty, Drowned, Legowelt Music, DJ Richard + Andrés Zacco. Come join us.

Cheers to DJ Mag for nominating me as Best Producer 2018. Voting closes on Friday. Big love xx (link below)
