Avalon Emerson presents 9000 Dreams, a day into night two stage takeover of Knockdown Center showcasing the full breadth of her artistic vision. Fully curated by Emerson, 9000 Dreams spans 14 hours and invites a host of like minded artists to join her both outdoors in the Ruins and indoors in the venue’s Atrium. Emerson headlines each stage – first with her band The Charm and later behind the DJ booth. Knockdown Center is proud to welcome back an artist with such a singular, unbridled vision.
Following their last sold-out show in NYC, we’re thrilled to announce Desert Hearts returning New York at the iconic Knockdown Center on Saturday November 4th.

Standing as the West Coast’s house and techno emblem, their immersive, intimate gatherings have transformed the West Coast house and techno scene like their recent festival at the legendary LA Memorial Coliseum which featured Justin Martin, Miss Monique, Tini Gessler, Eskuche, Gene Farris, DJ Minx, DJ Holographic and more.
Playing Robots Into Heaven follows the critically acclaimed Friends That Break Your Heart – James’ highest charting album in the UK to date – and will see James once again return to the electronic roots of his Hessle, Hemlock and R&S records days. It will also nod to his latest creation, the CMYK event series with Rhonda INTL which kicked off in LA last March and will be coming to London on July 6th. To mark the release of Playing Robots Into Heaven, James will be embarking on a headline international tour, with dates in the UK, Europe and North America.
