Avenue Red

Avenue Red welcomes a debut mix from Tim Ohta, who has delivered a seamless 100 minute vinyl-only session of slinky, deep, smooth-rolling minimal house & techno. Prepare to be immersed in some seriously trippy and hypnotic sounds from a 20-years-in-the-game veteran selector!

"I am 43 and for almost half of my life (since 2005) I have been collecting vinyl records with a tenacity worthy of a better use. Sometimes I even get to play them in some public spaces.

I think this picture suits the mix nicely. It is my 'avenue' on Vasilyevsky Island in St. Petersburg, Russia. The photo was taken at 5 o'clock in the morning... after the club vibes ;)

This mix for Avenue Red was recorded at home using a classic set-up: an Allen & Heath Xone:92 and 2x Technics 1210's. There was no pre-selection of records involved - the session was completely spontaneous, so I can't provide the tracklist. Thanks to Alec for posting!" Tim Ohta, April 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

On 14-02-2025 Damo B & Rich C joined forces to deliver a vinyl-only session of 7 solid hours to the Eastern Bloc faithful in Manchester. Again, Avenue Red was on-hand with our trusty recorder to capture the proceedings for all to enjoy, no matter where you are located. Finest house music all night long!

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.

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.

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??

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

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. Let's explore.

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

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 welcomes the second coming of the Athens-based Greek dub techno philosopher, DJ & artist known to those who know as Substak. Kostas Staikos, to those who do not. Here he administers another dose of his trademark wild interplanetary deepness that is sure to enamour the ears of those who see the world in a red tint, precisely 1,992 days after the last transmission.

"I was born in Athens and began producing in 2011 to escape a bit from real life. Till today I have released on various labels and this journey will continue. No words, no rules... let the music speak!" Kostas Staikos, 2024
