The next Avenue Red podcast comes from the 4-man Transition Crew based around the North London/Stevenage area. 4 true purveyors who have lived a life of music and all that follows... searching, digging, DJ'ing and producing sounds primarily focussed on House, Techno, Electro and IDM styles. These 4 have between them a Universe of music knowledge and have kept their ears to the ground for a long time, all the while unearthing the sweetest underground cuts found throughout a significant period of observable electronic music history. This mix is to promote their new Transition project, which is a fresh and exciting event/group/movement/page and also a monthly event in the Kings Cross area of London.
The mix enclosed is a blinding extravaganza of everything in their bag that they... well, chose to pull out for it. As you can probably tell, we don't want to say much else about it for now - the mix sells itself, as quality speaks for itself. The other information is from the Transition Crew, enjoy!
"We like techno, we like funk, we like a groove and we like it deep. We have a lot in common as purveyors and collectors of techno and so it seemed logical to put our hearts, ears and heads together for Transition. It's just a small party in a pub basement for our like-minded friends at this stage; a natural extension of our regular 'techno summits' of talking music and drinking ale together, as we have for the last few years when we realised we all lived in the same town and enjoyed each others friendship.
This recording came together a couple of weeks ago with 4 bags full of records largely unplanned for and the end result is this mix (it's the second take as we realised mic got left open on the first).
Transition part two is Saturday 4th July @ Star of Kings Cross.

Enjoy the mix and maybe see some of you on the 4th?
Peace,
Andy Green, Leigh Dickson, Rick Hopkins & Stephen Sherdel" Transition Crew, July 2015
