Avenue Red is all about high quality house & techno music with unique character and depth. We aim to push DJ's 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 it's own light. We revisit music from the past and observe how it can merge with the music of today to create a better, more holistic listening experience.
Avenue Red mixes are largely focussed on DJ'ing from the surface of vinyl, however this is not an exclusive policy. Music > Format.

Avenue Red welcomes back Glasgow DJ & producer Chris Curtis AKA Theta Waves (moniker for his deep & moody production works). Here we have an immaculate and expansive 2+ hour mix session whose centre of gravity is firmly in the sphere of planet deep techno.
And here's some related news... We are hosting an Avenue Red event @ OverDraught in Levenshulme, Manchester on Saturday 10th May from 3pm-1am, where you can catch Chris playing alongside Dubrovnik (UK) (also travelling down from Glasgow for the occasion), Tomas Bexton heading up from Maidstone in Kent and Avenue Red boss Alec Pritchard all commandeering the decks. Get involved!
"Electronic music hasn't just always been a love of mine but playing a set has always been a great way to de-stress and focus on nothing but music for a few hours. Last year was a busy year as I kicked off a new night in Glasgow (Trace) which ran for 6 months, plus preparing the monthly subSine Sessions show takes some time, although it's something I love putting together.
A short while ago I had an opportunity to spend an evening putting a mix together with no reason other than getting into the music and seeing where the journey took me. As opposed to playing live, putting a mix together gives you a great opportunity to plan a set list that really evolves and puts thought to deep transitions.
Unlike most of my other mixes this one was totally unplanned. The only thing I had in mind was capturing the essence of a Trace night into a compressed set of around 2 hours, feeling the vibe as I went, so I guess this is more like a live set in some ways.
When I'd finished the mix I thought this would be a good contender for Avenue Red, I'm glad Alec agreed.
I use Traktor with timecode vinyl on 1210s. Although a pain sometimes in a club it's great for the home setup as it allows me to switch between digital tracks and vinyl without anyone noticing. This also lets me play loads of unreleased material on the monthly subSine show. The Pioneer DJM800 is my weapon of choice mixer-wise.
Delighted to be providing another instalment of Avenue Red. Thanks Alec. Full track list to follow. Thanks for listening." Chris Curtis, April 2025
