For the 101st Avenue Red Podcast we present some fresh talent, a mysterious lady known as Becks who is originally from St. Louis, USA but has lived most of her life in Frankfurt, Germany, where her parents originated. Here Becks lays down an atmospheric mixture of electronic music that is very evocative, with smoked-out film noir vibes, a hint of Alice In Wonderland and stark, cold glacial landsca...

This series has been so much fun to bring to this point, the centenary episode! It has featured some well-known guests but that was never the point. It remains focused on the lesser-knowns, showing that on an avenue near you there are many ace DJ's and artists who can "see red" (meaning they can hear and recognise *quality* music), just like you can. You don't need to consult a glossy music magazi...

We are very pleased to welcome the return of Deep House maestro Janne Rasi from Helsinki, Finland!

He showcases that diversity and breadth of musical influence very well in this set. He has a crazy ability to set very...

We are proud to welcome the 3rd coming of Newcastle, UK-based Rob Moller to the series. More deepness, smooth operator blends and train-spotter selections.

I wanted to go back to the deep and dark stuff the podcast is kno...

Rubsilent from Istanbul, Turkey is back with his 5th contribution to the series with another marathon session of absolutely blinding tunes, new and old.

Avenue Red welcome Verdant Recordings back for his fourth contribution, which is his third for the main series (see links below).
