LAS VEGAS—Representing yet another accomplishment in her swelling EDM career, Nikki Phoenix released her album Ballroom Zombies last week, and the first two songs are now available for digital downloads across all media platforms, including iTunes and Amazon Music.
"It's such a great moment for me," said Phoenix. "Having worked so hard this year in the studio, I am so excited to see that the culmination of all that hard work is now available to share with everyone. The first two singles are very special to me, each has its own special theme, with Ballroom Zombies talking about my passion for EDM music and how it engulfs you totally when you are in a club and Until talking about reuniting with your partner in another life."
The album and it's first two uploaded songs are available across all media platforms for download, including iTunes, Amazon Music, Iheart Radio, Shazam, Spotify, Google Play, Xbox Music, Target Music, Juke and MySpace Music.

It has been a busy month for Phoenix, who just started production on the music video for Ballroom Zombies, which features a special appearance by friend and well-known adult star Britney Amber. The video, in production all month, is being shot in multiple locations including the Las Vegas desert and Prague, as well as other locations and will feature aerial performances by Phoenix and her duo partner and friend Karley Cottrell, owner of Polecats Aerial Fitness. Phoenix plans to release the video on her YouTube channel later this month.
"I'm so thankful for my fans and for all the people on my management and PR teams, who worked so hard to help me realize this dream,” Phoenix said. “I'm also very thankful for our music team that helped me with releasing my music across all the available digital platforms, and my sound engineer Basshead. While I wrote and composed the music and lyrics to all of the songs I have in my library, I couldn't have done it without all these very important people who helped me with my dream of sharing my music with everyone. I'm looking forward to uploading the rest of the album throughout the end of this year, and releasing the music videos for all of the titles as well."
The cover of the album, which was shot at a remote beach at sunset, was done on a special trip and features an untouched image from award-winning mainstream and adult photographer Miles Long.
"It was great to work on the cover art for this album, especially since I've been doing so much mainstream work these days," said Long. "It involved quite a bit of planning to make this one shot, as not only did we have to plan a long trip from Vegas just to get to the remote location, but it was a half hour hike with crew and gear just to hike in and set up; and of course; there's no electrical power on a beach either. If that weren't enough, we had to get the timing just right, I mean, you can't schedule a painted sky sunset anytime you want, you have to bend to mother nature's schedule. But in the end, it was really, really a perfect moment, everything came together just right. Talk about everything lining up perfectly, 15 minutes either way and we would have never captured that shot."
What's next for Phoenix? In addition to her album, Phoenix has finished her book, and is working with her editor on the final touches before releasing it. The book covers her story, her passion for fitness and nutrition, her amazing weight loss and her passion for encouraging others to do the same.
"I really want to be a force to inspire others for positive change," Phoenix said. "When I was younger, I, like a lot of people was the victim of bullying, but instead of letting those people and that type of attitude hold me back in life, I used it as a tool to help me not only accomplish my goals, but to help inspire others to do the same."
