Avalon Emerson & The Charm: Written Into Changes (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP+Print - PRE-ORDER
"Multi-hyphenate musician Avalon Emerson sounds at home harnessing the steady flux of her existence on Written into Changes, the memoiristic second album released under her Avalon Emerson & the Charm moniker. The resulting body of work is band-driven but groove-heavy and dance-adjacent. The break-beat-assisted 'Eden' has a 'baggy' sound thatās reminiscent of dance-rock hybrids of the late ā80s and early ā90s. The witty 'How Dare This Beer' was written in loving tribute to the Magnetic Fields. 'ā87 to ā94 is my idea of the best era of music,ā'says Emerson. 'And with Nathan, our musical taste overlaps quite a bit.'Ā Nathan is Nathan Jenkins, aka Bullion, who co-produced & the Charm and returned to handle the bulk of its followup. Much of the recording took place in Braintree, England, in the winter into spring of 2024. The two tracks co-produced with Rostam Batmanglij ('Jupiter & Mars' and 'Earth Alive') were cut in Los Angeles. Synth touches were added at the Synth Cabin at Rosen Sound in Glendale, California. While the collaborative creation of Written into Changes diverged considerably from Emersonās dancefloor-tailored solo productions, the influence of dance music is splashed all over it. Emerson was fixated on her musicās low end as she crafted it. 'Bass was definitely a priority,' she says." - Dead Oceans
