It’s fair to say a restless urge for creativity has punctuated everything Daniel Avery has done to date. He claims to be “a DJ firstand foremost”
and has developed a style that sees house and techno thrown alongside cosmic drones, post-punk angles andmutant new wave whilst no
momentum - or any floor - is lost. It was this drive that prompted Fabric to quickly pick him up as aresident (where he still remains) and for
Erol Alkan to invite him into his Phantasy Sound collective for which Daniel is poised torelease the “Need Electric EP.”
With weekends spent inside strobelights around the world, the rest of his time is spent locked in a studio full of analogueequipment, exploring
the darker corners of a record collection where Chris Carter, Martin Hannett and Kevin Shields are asimportant as Carl Craig or The Chemical

not least from UK club legend Justin Robertson, leading to an ongoingcollaboration with releases on Tigersushi, Gomma and How The Other Half
Lives. His signing to Phantasy proves that 2012 is theyear in which Avery takes things further. Now producing solely under his own name, the
year began with EP releases on Relishand Throne Of Blood plus remixes for The 2 Bears, Django Django, Mickey Moonlight and The Horrors to
add to a list whichalready includes reworks for the likes of Metronomy, DFA 1979, In Flagranti and Black Devil Disco Club. « hide
