The Avenue Red Podcast is a series that aims to push DJs and artists based solely upon the quality of their output, the refinement of their taste and their dedication to the music. Commercially-driven reputation, inflated egos, "big names" and artificially-manufactured hype are of no interest to us. We know true quality shines in its own light.

Swiss underground electronic music heavyweight Alessandro Crimi celebrates the release of his latest album, Sirius, by making his 10th contribution for Avenue Red. The album was released last month on London label Natural Expressions, both digitally and on a limited edition cassette tape in a beautiful silk screen printed package. It is a deep techno/electro masterpiece loaded with futuristic machine soul, uniquely crafted sound designs with pulsating, intense rhythmic energy and shimmering, haunting, ethereal melodies.

It is themed on a journey though our galaxy, as most tracks are aptly titled after a named star or constellation. Here Alessandro has taken us out even deeper into the cosmos with a 90-minute mix of dreamy electro magic created exclusively for Avenue Red. Get lost in your own space to this! As always with this guy... it's something special.

Avenue Red Podcast #185 - Alessandro Crimi

Avenue Red listener, obsessive music collector and DJ, the man known as Faestos, has stepped over the line and delivered a special set of musical notes and moody hues for our collective discerning aural considerations. Originating from "Tintin" town, Brussels - capital city of Belgium - Faestos (real name Stephan Hartog) has created an awe-inspiring universe of sound lasting just over 2 hours from big bang to the big crunch. Free your mind, let your imagination float on the waves of this magical soundtrack of deep, dubbed-out techno and ambient sounds. See you later in the foggy haze over on the dancefloor.

"I am glad you opened this gift from me to you! With this mix, I want to take you on a journey through ever-changing environments - from nature to space to urban and back. I mixed a selection of dub techno and deep house tunes which range from deeply meditative and atmospheric to dancefloor-friendly and quite energetic, each representing a different environment. I will leave it up to you to decide which reflects which." Stephan Den Hartog, March 2022

Avenue Red Podcast #202 - Alessandro Crimi

Avenue Red welcomes the return of Amsterdam DJ & producer dubtommy for the first podcast episode of 2023! In under 2 weeks we are heading over the waters to attend the very exciting Stately Records vs Irenic label event being held at OOSTerBAR in Amsterdam, where we will bear witness to https://soundcloud.com/rogergerressen, Avenue Red resident selector https://soundcloud.com/alessandro_crimi and also dubtommy himself alongside his Stately label pal, Frederik.

This mix can be seen as the calm before the storm, as dubtommy whips up a whirlwind of dreamy downtempo, smoked-out trip-hop, kaleidoscopic bossa nova and liquid nujazz tracks.

"The start of a new year calls for a new DJ mix, this time going down in the tempo. Thanks to Alec Pritchard for hosting this one again, my 4th submission for his wonderful Avenue Red podcast series. Get lost in this maze of sound!" Tommy Lemmers, January 2023

Avenue Red Podcast #212 - dubtommy

For the second of this 5-part sub-series to celebrate 10 years of Avenue Red, we welcome the Glasgow artist, DJ and all-round dub wizard known as Dubrovnik (UK). With a wealth of fine dub techno material released over the past 8 years, including an EP on Greyscale's magnificent Mood Series, the man Chris Currie has under his Dubrovnik (UK) moniker traced through a journey of his own unique sonic craft.

Relentless investment of time, energy and focus; ceaseless digging; learning and developing in the studio and out at gigs and shows etc. have all culminated in him distilling his own unique sound, as demonstrated in this exceptional Celtic vs Rangers match-length mix for Avenue Red. This is a session of exquisite deepness - a relentless, well-controlled onslaught of trippy, glacial, dubbed-out techno & house music.

"I've been an avid listener of Avenue Red for a long time, it's an honour to be asked to contribute to this wonderful series! For the mix, I've dug deep through the archives to give an after hours vibe - an early doors to late night floors feel from walking into a club and being taken on a journey as the music shifts through the moods & gears. Really hope you enjoy the mix!" Chris Currie, August 2023

After a salubrious pause in our output, the Avenue Red Podcast resumes forward motion with the second installment in the series from one of our favourite DJ's and producers - Alessandro Crimi. This mix is inspired by the fresh autumnal vibes around his picturesque hometown of St. Gallen in the Swiss Alps, as he delivers a stunning blend of magical, dreamy house music full of blissful melodies, slick, grooving beats and soul-warming basslines. The craftiness of the mixing and well-considered transitions that glue tracks together so seamlessly are a lesson in truly innovative DJ'ing, making for a luxurious listening experience.

This 80-minute session neatly follows on from his stylistically similar guest mix on the last Avenue Red Radio Show that we did back in September. Alessandro shows that he is developing a very niche style that allows elements of his strong Dub Techno sensibilities (as a DJ and Producer) to bleed into his own unique vision of true deep house music. We are honoured to have such quality to deliver on the series... enjoy the mix everyone!

Avenue Red Podcast welcomes Marseille-based DJ/artist Sarah Goldfarb for his debut mix on the series. Mastermind of the most hilarious and incisive techno scene memes (for which he is fast becoming uniquely infamous), he is best known to us for his scintillating, deep, shimmering, minimal, clicky micro house & techno releases pressed in the 2000's.

Many older Avenue Red heads will recall some of the important labels he graced, including: Riley Reinhold's Trapez Ltd; Treibstoff; Dumb-Unit; Curle Recordings; 200 Records; Toys For Boys Records and more. It's great to have him back, adding his fresh, zesty ideas once again to this rather murky and unusual realm of the underground. This mix is truly magical. Taste it.

"After many years of hiatus I am back on it with DJ'ing, producing music and SekT, my new project more oriented around deep/ambient/techno material. Since the early 2000's I have always explored the deeper territories of techno but sometimes it could be more focused on deep house music for the after-parties. Enjoy the mix, which progresses through my main spectrum of sounds." Sarah Goldfarb, March 2024

Lempuyang Records captain Alastair Kelly is back on the Avenue Red Podcast with his 4th mix contribution for us. Based on the Isle of Wight in the south of England, here he has cast a perfect sonic summer treat across the waters of The Solent for the deep, murky, trippy house heads adrift out there! Features many of our favourite artists and labels from the golden era, as well as some newer inclusions but we are saying slooow, deeeep house and techno, groovy swinging instrumental hip-hop & trip-hop etc. to finish. Serve yourself a cold one, light up a strong one, inhale and observe the magic unfold in the haze.

"Lempuyang boss Alastair swings by to inject some doozy warmth into your so-far-shit summer. Expect deepness, pitched right down. Pairs nicely with a minimum of 8 margeritas and an enchilada with an unnecessary number of jalapeños." Alastair Kelly, July 2024

Avenue Red were grateful to ourselves for having made the impeccable choice to rock up in Margate on the extreme southeast edge of England to witness a phenomenal event back in April. Masterclass sets from all who played there, with this live set from Reedale Rise (real name Simon Keat) being one of the highlights to shine on this wonderful soundsystem in a visually stunning venue. It was ace to also unexpectedly bump into some key agents of organised UK underworld deepness, including Miles Atmospheric of Atmospheric Existence Recordings, Bovill of cult label Meanwhile and many others! Quality > quantity. Keep the faith and enjoy the ride, the tide and the vibes inside! 🌊🌊🌊

"This set was recorded directly from my live performance at Faith In Strangers, Margate earlier this year for Ornate Music and 50arc. The venue is fantastic with a beautifully tuned sound system, views over the sea, and lovely hospitable staff. The event was a chance for me to catch up with people I'd not seen since before the pandemic and put some faces to online names, including Avenue Red's very own Alec.

My live set has changed a lot over the years and the current evolution is all unreleased house and techno tracks. The music I play live has moved in this direction simply because it's more relevant to the dancefloor and more fun to perform to a crowd than some of my deeper electro tracks. Gear-wise, I've added a Roland TR8S drum machine to Ableton, which has allowed me more opportunity to improvise and react spontaneously. Listening back, I'm happy with how the set sounds and hope it resonates with people. Shouts to James Ornate, Damo B, and the 50arc crew for letting me play, and to Alec for both attending the event and hosting my set." Reedale Rise, August 2024

Andy Green AKA Verdant Recordings is back on Avenue Red Podcast with a nice, eclectic Indian summer mix comprised of 2.5 hours of wayward, grooving house & techno delights.

"I often hit record when settling in for a session just in case it turns out to be a keeper. The mix presented here is one of those recent efforts put together on a warm July Monday night with no real purpose other than to enjoy a mix and some great music. Mostly records & few files on the CDJs, some new, some old and one or two unreleased oddities. I thought the Avenue Red community would appreciate a listen so I passed it over to Alec who kindly obliged. Disclaimer: I have nothing to promote... this is the true underground." Andy Green, September 2024

The Avenue Red Podcast engine has been reignited after a small-but-healthy hiatus! Here we present an impulsive, slick vinyl mix from Barcelona-based DJ & artist Giancarlo Puigbó, who is originally from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

"First of all, thanks for the opportunity! I heard about this platform from my friend NEZ, who has released multiple mixes here. I've been a big fan ever since - just great music, plain and simple.

This mix was really just an impromptu session where I went with the flow - no planning, just having fun! It's something I really missed doing. There are a few mistakes here and there, but as said in one of Ron Trent's records: 'Without error, there can be no brilliancy.' - FACT!" Giancarlo Puigbó, November 2024

Istanbul-based beacon of musical taste and exquisite curatorship, and provider of a bit of mixtape action here and there for Avenue Red, we welcome Cenk Akyol back for his third contribution for us.

Sure, it's no surprise... An amazing eye for photography; a discerning taste for music; an ocean of black wax documentation in his home; a bloodhound for fine wines... Smokey film-noir vibes abound. Blaze up the room, set the scene. Get some mates around. *This mix was approved for release by the Turkish mafia.*

"Another recording, far away from the dictate of the dogmatic obligation to the currentness that DJs have to face nowadays, celebrates dance music as a timeless sensual component. Without becoming even remotely anachronistically sentimental, I chose landmarks of house & techno from my very own archive." Cenk Akyol, November 2024

The Avenue Red Podcast is here to deliver the final release of 2024 as we welcome a debut mixtape from DJ/artist/producer Sveta Pavlova AKA Svetiritm from Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Sveta has some mad production skills and has showcased them on Alessandro Crimi & Sandro Isler's Waehlscheibe imprint with her awesome, ridiculously hypnotic Teleport EP from earlier in 2024... this pick being just the tip of the iceberg of top tracks and mixes released across the board of underground beacons of truth & light we keep our eyes and ears upon. She also goes a step further, creating and delivering full audio-visual performances at some events, so we clearly have an adventurous full-package artist on show here! Get ready for an intense, explosive session.

"I just want to send peace and love for everyone 🙏🏻 I'm glad to record a mix for Avenue Red and be close to such legendary DJs. UK music has always inspired me and my friends, especially sounds coming from the city of Bristol! Enjoy the vibes." Sveta Pavlova, December 2024

Avenue Red ushers in another new year's feast of deepness with a fresh debut mix from Adrià Duch - an artist, DJ & producer based in Barcelona. Adrià has released music on some of the finest proper underground labels including: Apnea Label; Insectorama; Chikyu-u Records; Greyscale; ECOUL SND; Lempuyang; Crossfade Sounds; Piranha Siberia Dub; Citrica Records; Melotonin; Slope Point; ODrex Music... and there are many more imprints graced as his production catalogue traces back to somewhere pre-2012. But damn it, to what length will this list stretch to being in another 5-10 years time?!

So yes, Adrià has created tons of seriously amazing material that is moody, creative in arrangements and demonstrates his very special awareness of, and skill in handling the heavy sonic details in the low-end bassy frequencies. Wanna hear him DJ? Recline. It's all going to be fine.

"I want to thank Alec for giving me this opportunity. I have to say that I consider myself first a producer and then a DJ. I obviously like to play music and I am always excited to collect vinyl, whether it be LPs or 12"s. I am a lover of dub techno - always have been! I make dubby-oriented music under my own name but for this mix I wanted it to be eclectic. I also enjoy many other genres in the electronic music scene.

This is a vinyl-only set that starts very deep and pleasant, continues with some jacking house to move your body and ends up with pure darkness. It's basically tracks I've been digging lately and other favourites I own. This mix became an inspiration to me also." Adrià Duch, January 2025

After an unusual 3-year gap, Alessandro Crimi is back at Avenue Red HQ once again, marking himself as one of the lords of the deep underground. This fresh 2025 mix is to show us his latest updated maps and mathematical models of a specific realm of the Universal space-time continuum... here, he presents what he describes as: deep, atmospheric and futuristic electro.

Stockport-based Preston lad Olly Godfrey steps up for his debut mix for the Avenue Red Podcast with a stunning CD-length session of deep house and grooving 4/4 dancefloor fodder. We attest that this guy knows how to select and glue records together alright, as we had the pleasure of hearing him spin a head-warping set last summer at a 40th birthday party at the lovely venue named 33 Oldham Street in central Manchester (guess the address?!). That was a wildly uptempo & techy affair, but here he demonstrates his maturity as a DJ with a calmer, slower and more down to earth pure house music vibe.

"I haven't really played many events worth mentioning, mainly just smaller parties and gatherings with friends over the years, plus the occasional radio show. I started DJing at 16 and I turn 40 this year. I started out going to events like Gatecrasher and Cream, then slowly going to more house and techno nights such as Tribal Sessions and Bugged Out!. These all had a strong influence on my sound.

This mix for Avenue Red brings together some of my favourite sounds - dreamy, Italo and groovin' house music. It's a reflection of the music I'd want to hear if I'd just walked into a club and onto the dancefloor... enjoy!" Olly Godfrey, January 2025

The Avenue Red Live Sessions series hits the 10th episode with a pulsating tech house mix from Peter Bernath from Budapest, Hungary. Peter is the boss of RTS.FM Budapest and his long-running Lost Minute event, where Avenue Red's Alec Pritchard had played back in February 2022 (exactly 3 years ago - see links below). This is a live & direct session recorded at a festival near the village of Rajka in the north west of Hungary.

"3/9/24, 9:29 PM
[Peter]
Heey Alec, how are you? I have a nice recording from one of my favorite small festival (DVN Camp) and this years edition was incredible... such a nice location by the river, amazing crowd and I really loved playing there especially on the little Ecler Warm2 rotary 🙂

If you have time please check it out my friend 🙂

I was wondering if you could maybe use it for your Avenue Red series... of course just in case if you like it and it fits??

Avenue Red Live Session #010 - Peter Bernath @ DVN Camp! 2024, Rajka, Hungary (10-08-2024)

Ruslan Huzaev & Artyom Savitsky AKA Glik & Arts, a duo from Moscow and Minsk respectively, are back for their second mix on the Avenue Red Podcast. Here they are found circling around in that hinterland where purely deep house meets dub techno in a blurry merge of spacey, aquatic 4/4 sounds.

Avenue Red Live Session #011 - Rich C & Damo B @ Eastern Bloc, Manchester, UK (14-02-2025)

Trust when we tell you this mix has been a long-time coming... And now, finally, enter Tm Shuffle (AKA Trackmaster Shuffle AKA DJ Shuffle). His real name is Jukka Hänninen and he originates from Ruutana, Finland - a settlement absorbed into the country's sprawling second-largest city Tampere, which lies in the south of the country, about 150 km north of Helsinki.

Jukka is a purveyor of finest deep & dubby techno music as an artist, DJ and label boss with his Vuo Records and Soulful Dubs imprints, which stretch back to a first release in 2003. His labels have released the works of his friends and fellow countrymen like Monoder, Phonogenic, Trevor Deep Jr; Star Dub; Armin Bender; Marco Cassanelli; former Avenue Red guest OHM and his long-time collaborator Kvadrant, to name just a handful.

This mix is a testament to his veteran status on the decks and his keen ear for a patient, treacle-smooth flowing deep dubbed-out techno vinyl mix that feels transcending, full of cosmic touches... and if you close your eyes you can see the northern lights shimmering in your mind as you let the sounds wash over you.

"I bring this mix from Ruutana City, Finland. Hidden in this studio in the forest, armed with two trusty old 1210s, a mixer and some dusty records, I bring the usual dubby deepness. Dive in!" Jukka Hänninen, March 2025

Continuing with our theme of chilled summery vibes we welcome back Avenue Red resident and Waehlscheibe label boss Alessandro Crimi, as he delivers his own self-proclaimed "timeless summer soundtrack".

"For me this is a personal summer soundtrack, but not just for 2016. This is a choice selection of old, timeless favourite cuts that bring back memories of hot, sunny days and really set the scene. There was only room for a 2 or 3 newer tracks on this one. In the beginning the mood is from a nice summer afternoon, later I imagine that it's getting slowly dark outside, until the sun goes up again (last 2 tracks).

My next gigs in the pipeline are:
13-08-2016 :: Frieda's Büxe (Zürich, Switzerland)
27-08-2016 :: ROOFTOP (Konstanz, Germany)
01-10-2016 :: TBA (London, UK)

I hope you dig the mood and feel the heat! :)" Alessandro Crimi, July 2016

Avenue Red Podcast #069 - Alessandro Crimi

Another 5 Years of Avenue Red mix... another Avenue Red legend! For this instalment we present an extended 3-hour live session from Swiss deep boss Alessandro Crimi. All fans of Avenue Red will know Alessandro well, as he has touched our souls with his expertly crafted mixes loaded with unforgettable vibes and deepness.

The Waehlscheibe label boss was going to do a special studio mix for this one, however a smoked-out live gig in his hometown of St. Gallen last weekend was recorded and after a listen through, we decided that it fitted the bill nicely.

Here master Crimi delivers a crazy eclectic mix of deep, tripped out lounge lizard tracks, which oozes into some of the most delicious deep house and electro ever produced, then finished with a smattering of liquid drum & bass tracks.

"I didn't expect this mix to be used for a proper podcast... I only recorded it so that I had something fresh to listen to, like a playlist of some of my favourites in my collection.

I wasn't even spending all the time behind the booth as I knew the length of the tracks, so I occasionally went outside for smoke, then came in just to play the next one... that's why some of the time I didn't mix at all. This session is all about just letting the music play. I had some good music with me, and also some good stuff to smoke 😉" Alessandro Crimi, September 2018

Avenue Red Is 5... Alessandro Crimi

Avenue Red legend Alessandro Crimi is back to show us his new ways and visions in deep swinging techy house and breaks. We think he has conjured one of his hottest selections to date here. Is this Crimi 2.0?

"Finally I was able to record my first mix in 2019. I put together all kinds of music that I currently like and listen to. My intention was to record a mix that is not restricted to 1 genre, but still everything gels together well. Pretty sure this accomplishes that, with some nice Spring time vibes."

Avenue Red Podcast #125 - Alessandro Crimi

The Avenue Red Podcast presents a fresh addition to the roster. Welcome Kyrro (real name George Kury) who is originally from France and is now based in Amsterdam, the Dutch capital city full of red light districts, trippy weed cafes and intriguing bars and clubs with a strong undercurrent of underground electronic music culture.

Kyrro sent us a few mixes in the past and there was a sad story: an accidental data loss occurred on both sides and an incredible 1-hour mix he created to be released on Avenue Red was lost forever. This is the new improved version, the final directors cut, which has come 1 year later and we are over the moon to be able to finally do this!

One word comes to mind from the sounds within: Glacial. This mix really captures a mood of travelling through cold icy waters and exploring landscapes full of glaciers... the loneliness, the isolation - apart from the odd polar bear - and the beautifully barren nature of such a place is all wrapped up into one dreamy, textured package... full of echo, melancholy and slow, timeless motion.

"I grew up in France in the 90's playing electric guitar and experimenting with synthesizers. I produce analogue soundscapes using hardware tools with a mix of raw elements and a modern touch. I love living in Amsterdam where I am constantly working to shape deep and ambient electronics into my own sound, while continuing to explore new musical horizons.

This journey is all about deep, dubby techno energy put together in different shades of red. Thanks to Avenue Red and to all contributing artists on this amazing project, which I am now finally a proud part of!" George Kury, August 2020

Avenue Red Podcast #166 - Kyrro

We are so pleased to bring this one forth, Moscow-based Elistratov is back for his second mix on Avenue Red! Expect more of the same as we got last time around: a focused set of radioactive, schizophrenic, eyes-wide-open neurotic deep house pulsating with insatiable grooves and transcendental soundscapes. Here we show you a real pro who has researched the landscape of deep electronic music and knows how to select, how to package it up neatly into a special product of his own. The end product is always greater than the sum of its parts with this one. Here's the news!

"I am a vinyl collector & a digger for the musical gems, also a DJ with utmost precision and experience for my craft. Being a resident of the Moscow-based label Sakskøbing, I am also a core member of the bar/record shop called Deficit in Moscow, where I am the curator... take a look and you can find thousands of records currently on the shop's Discogs page. Hope you enjoy this second submission for Avenue Red!" Vasily Elistratov, June 2019

Established in summer 2013 in Newcastle, England, Avenue Red is all about high quality house & techno music with unique character and depth. We aim to push DJs and artists based solely upon the quality of their output, the refinement of their taste and their dedication to the music. Commercially-driven reputation, inflated egos, "big names" and artificially-manufactured hype are of no interest to us. We know true quality shines in its own light.
