Jeremy Avalon on Building Community and Letting R&B Take the Lead

Crate-digging for gems, playing ballads out loud, and hosting parties where people come first. Jeremy Avalon taps in.

This week on Queue Points, we’re joined by DJ and producer Jeremy Avalon for a conversation about music, community, and the spaces that shape us. Jeremy traces his journey from a home filled with vinyl and instruments to the sounds that formed his ear, Hendrix, Marley’s Exodus, and the kind of crate digging that leads you to songs you don’t hear out loud nearly enough.

We talk about how WERC Crew came together as a home for the folks who didn’t fit neatly into one box, and how that spirit grew into events that center the music and the people. The Groove party treats R&B as the main event—ballads included—while High Key Disco nods to the energy of early New York rooms. Jeremy also reflects on playing for younger crowds, the appeal and limits of Boiler Room–style production, and how technology can make certain songs feel “less sacred.”

If you care about the craft of DJing, the evolution of the party, and the importance of community, this conversation is for you.
