Multifaceted British electronic producer Daniel Avery released his cult club masterpiece Drone Logic back in 2013. It was a lasting document of second-wave minimal techno that helped to further legitimize the genre in the eyes of critics.

With this release, he inhabits much of the same dark, alien psychic spaces as his previous full-length, although Song For Alpha blows past any expectations one may have held of Avery’s musical narrative: it’s legit.

Marking an exciting new chapter for Avery with a number of US dates with Nine Inch Nails and Jon Hopkins on their respective west coast and Canada tours this year. KCRW welcomes Daniel Avery to Metropolis with a exclusive guest mix in celebration of his album, Song For Alpha.
