Queue Points welcomes DJ and producer Jeremy Avalon for a conversation about community, musicianship, and the power of building spaces where the music leads. Jeremy traces the influences that shaped him. He takes us on a journey from a childhood surrounded by records and instruments to the impact of Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley’s Exodus, and how those roots inform his sound and approach behind the decks.

The trio digs into the formation and intent of WERC Crew as a collective, why The Groove treats R&B as a headliner rather than a segment, and how High Key Disco channels the spirit of early NYC dance floors. They also tackle the realities of today’s DJ culture, Gen Z crowds, Boiler Room aesthetics, and why technology can make songs feel “less sacred.”
