Berlin-based Russian-German selector Dmitry Gusev returns for his 8th contribution to Avenue Red, this time again laying down a lot of his favourite oldskool deep house, nu jazz & techno records. Many of his inclusions also happen to be some of our favourite records from that era too. What a tightly mixed, delightfully colourful and heartfelt autumn mixture of vibes we have here!

"Hello all music lovers, I am finally back here spinning the classic trax on the black wax after 5 years since I recorded episode number 165! It was a lot of fun playing the mix. I wanted to play a classic sound from the late 90s and early 2000s. Vincenzo, Needs, Callisto, etc. Enjoy!" Dmitry Gusev, January 2025

The space is rhythm, a break in the flow, a breath where resistance begins to grow. Not silence, but charged with meaning and weight, a moment where our voices rise to challenge the hate. Between the lines, the truth is heard and the struggle is real with every word…Bumbaclart!

Radio Guesthouse 60 – Mark Broadbent

This is a special one, a family one.

Rosie Ama (Cain), as I’m sure you all already know, is a London-based DJ, radio host, and founder of Human Endeavour Records. She’s been in the fam a while now, operating on the outer fringes of dance music… which is exactly where you want to be if you're trying to avoid mainstream success and financial stability.

Having cut her teeth as a writer and editor for online music platforms Stamp The Wax and this here Ransom Note, Rosie demonstrated such exemplary dedication to underground culture that we eventually had to take disciplinary action against her. The subsequent court settlement led to the founding of Human Endeavour; sometimes the best label launches emerge from legal disputes, rather than business plans.

Officially launching in 2022 (once the legal paperwork was finalised), it serves as a platform for artists operating in the deep, dark and hypnotic corners of electronic music and has welcomed artists like Anastasia Zems, Justine Forever, Nandele, Medicine 8 and Thomass Jackson over the years.

Before doing her own thing, Rosie made up one half of Kiara Scuro alongside friend Nadia, a DJ and production partnership that released music on Fabric Originals, Ritmo Fatale and Faux Poly, as well as long-standing radio residencies on Rinse FM and Balamii Radio. After a decade together, she’s gone solo turning her full attention to the label and her monthly Noods radio show, Melodic Odds, that showcases her love for sleazy low-slung chuggers, leftfield acid house and synth-driven 3am groovers. 

Whilst I’d never tell her this to her face, it’s actually a delight to welcome her back to the fold - this time without the need for lawyers - for a mix that captures her hypnotic, trippy vision of what dance music can be when nobody's watching the figures…

Let’s get going then, shall we…

"Drifting through space and time, polished steel dreaming in moonlight. I slip between centuries like turning pages. The cosmos blooms around me, quiet as snowfall, and the old machine hums its mechanical lullaby, guiding me gently through the endless, star-stitched dark. The heavens await those willing to accept the grace of God”

Radio Guesthouse 62 – Mark Broadbent

Radio on Vacation with Benjamin Fröhlich 200th Episode

Final set of the third edition of Luna Roja. The Flying Duck, Nov 28th, 2025.

Phil Kieran, our special guest, took on us on a masterclass with an extended set, flowing through different genres including some of his own productions. Dancefloor locked until the very end when the lights went on.

A pioneer of electronic music, Phil has been at the forefront of the underground for over two decades, with releases on some of the most respected labels in dance music (Cocoon, Hotflush, Turbo, Electric Deluxe, Optimo Music, Soma, Hot Creations, Kompakt, and Skint). Alongside his solo work, he also explores a more melodic dimension with his acclaimed Le Carousel project, showing the full depth of his artistry.

It was an honor to have him close the party, such a great musician and person.

Phil Kieran @ Luna Roja III (1:30-4)

The moonlight cast a glowing shimmer across the globe. The sea lit up in the midst of the midnight darkness and all was peaceful in this place. The celestial waves flowed gracefully as the currents travelled across the world. The planet was at ease with itself for the first time in a millenium. The human race had now abandoned this place, they had deemed to too extreme to inhabit anymore. Now, nature could be left to its own devices without the imprint of man. A new dawn was born. 

Uqbar is the latest artist to release on Sempor Memor. He delivers an ep of prestigious quality and expertly crafted electronics for the label which has been on form as of late.

PREMIERE: Uqbar - Celestial Waves [Semper Memor]
