The music is a perpetual emotion machine.
The DJ is a perpetual emotion machine.
The dancefloor is a perpetual emotion machine.
The perpetual emotion machine is what we reach into when we listen and move to music together.
Globally-renowned DJ and producer Avalon Emerson has shared new tracks, “Sort of Like a Dream feat. Anunaku” and “You’re My World feat. Priori”, two collaborative releases continuing the Perpetual Emotion Machine series, out now!
The tracks are rolling, 4am heaters that capture the essence of a dancefloor at its most spiritual. Lead track “Sort of Like a Dream” has a thunderous, psychedelic bassline, while the repeating, chopped-up vocal hook hypnotises the listener. Avalon made the track with longtime friend and former AD93 label mate Anunaku (AKA TSVI). The pair released a collaborative EP in 2022 titled 060 under the name A+A. “You’re My World”, made with Quebec-based techno producer Priori, is sludgey yet hard-hitting–equally euphoric as it is trippy.
The tracks follow recently released “On It Goes”, “Treat Mode” and a cover of Oppenheimer Analysis’ cult classic “Don’t Be Seen With Me” all under the PEM project.

Perpetual Emotion Machine is a living, evolving project; a conduit for human connection on the dance floor which sees Emerson pull from different genres across different decades, reaching into the mosaic of dance music’s past and future to help us connect with each other right now.
“These songs were created for my DJ sets. Whether they’re entirely original, edits to recontextualize old favorites, instrumental, or feature me singing, they are all part of my perpetual emotion machine. And the machine steams on.”
Perpetual Emotion Machine marks a return to dance music for Emerson, following 2023’s critically acclaimed dream pop album Avalon Emerson & The Charm.
