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."

'What are we doing here?' Little did they know that 17 years later Geraint would be a Tour de France winner and Mark would have won the most Tour stages in history, eclipsing Eddy Merckx' record. We were delighted to finally welcome Mark to the GTCC and today's pod is basically about just that: how their respective careers have unwound since they lived together in a student house in Levenshulme, a suburb of Manchester. They share a bond, and fresh from Mark announcing his retirement, it was a delight to ride back down memory lane with two icons of British cycling. Enjoy.

Levenshulme Market was a local success story, cementing a narrative of a neighbourhood on the rise. For ten years, it ran weekly markets on a council-owned car park near the train station serving everything from craft beer to books, cocktails and gifts, and the market became celebrated for its role as an incubator for small businesses that managed to make the jump from a market stall to a spot on the high street. Then, in 2023, the directors announced that the market would have to cease trading for the rest of the year after a "painful planning permission process" made it impossible for them to proceed, but that they hoped that the market could come back stronger in 2024. It's now 2024, and there are no signs of the market returning anytime soon. Manchester City Council and Levenshulme Market both say they want the market to reopen.

50% of all new cars are SUV's, which may come as a surprise to you, considering the various noises around the world about moves to green transport. Is this just people with more disposable income wanting bigger cars, is it for the prestige? Or do car companies need you to buy bigger?This week on the show Lucy and Andrew are joined by political economist Dr Tom Haines-Doran, to discuss his recent paper " The financialisation of car consumption". They discuss how the car industry is slowly destroying itself through over production, why fiance and debt companies want you to own a bigger car,  why the majority of cars are pretty much the same and the fall out of the the botched Low Traffic Neighbourhood scheme in Levenshulme.  LinksRead Tom's paper "The financialisation of car consumption" Herehttps://eprints.whiterose.ac.uk/204987/Read " The political economy of car dependence: A systems of provision approach" Herehttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214629620300633Shout outStreets for People-  @s4plbWalk Ride GM-  @WalkRideGMSupport the show

Date:14.02.2023 Join Sharjeel Ahmad and Saad Ahmed for Tuesday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: "Careers" and "Religion-do we need it?" Careers A career in the modern world is no easy task. Different career paths come with their own sets of challenges. Join us to find out how to overcome those hardships and how to pursue your desired career. Religion- Do we need it? Many atheists argue that we don't need religion in order for us to live upstanding lives or be decent human beings. So, then, what is the purpose of religion, if we can still be good people without one? Is it necessary for a religion to define our morals? Join us as we discuss this important question of whether we truly need religion.

A UK man whose expression of solidarity with the Muslim community went viral following the Christchurch terror attack, says now is the time for friendship, not fear.Andrew Graystone, 57, was pictured outside his local mosque on Friday holding a sign that read: 'You are my friends. I will keep watch while you pray'.This man outside Levenshulme mosque has been me cry. You're a good un fella ❤️ pic.twitter.com/94cfxjz2nR— Whatsoever (@hey_whatsoever) March 15, 2019Graystone told Kate Hawkesby during such a difficult time it is important to show kindness. "The reaction since Friday has just been astonishing. People all over the world are feeling for you in New Zealand at the moment.""The challenge really is how do we respond to this, do we respond with fear or do we respond with friendship?""I've had tens of thousands of individual messages since Friday and they are basically people saying we are going to respond to this with friends not with fear."Graystone, who is from Manchester, said they have some experience with these kinds of attacks."We have some experience of this because we have had our own terrorist attacks, and we know what it's like to be hit in the middle of a community. So our hearts in Manchester are so much with you in New Zealand, in Christchurch in particular, we feel for you so much.""There nothing that we could say that will make it better, but our experience is that if you pull together the dun will rise again, it feels like it's going to be dark forever but the sun will rise again."He said it was a spur of the moment decision, he made after watching the news about the deadly Christchurch terror attack."I woke up on Friday morning, as you know we are 11 or 12 hours behind you. I woke up to the terrible, terrible news from Christchurch and I found myself thinking what would it feel like to be a Muslim today getting ready to go to Friday prayers?""I thought if I was a Muslim, I would be feeling sad and angry and maybe even afraid, and I thought is there something I can do about that?""Obviously there isn't much I can do, but I thought I will go and stand by my local mosque and maybe smile at people, then I thought that's going to look a bit weird if I stand there smiling," he said."I grabbed an old bit of cardboard and a marker pen and wrote a little message and went and stood outside my local mosque."Graystone said the reaction was lovely and he was even given a pot of chicken biryani."As people walked up the road towards me you could see a few people thinking 'oh no, is this some sort of protester' but when they got close enough dn they saw the message people melted."He said he waited outside while people were praying, "just keeping my eye on the entrance for them"."Apparently while they were inside, the Imam mentioned in his sermon that I was outside, so when people came out everyone was shaking my hand and we were salaaming and hugging and it was just a real atmosphere of friendship there.""They even sent me away with a pot of chicken biriyani so that's a win, isn't it."

For Episode 6 of Reworked, Rachael travelled to Levenshulme in Manchester to look up an old friend who has turned her passion for workplace equality into real purpose. Joeli Brearley launched the Pregnant Then Screwed campaign three years ago as a forum for women to share their stories about how they were treated by employers while pregnant or returning to work after the birth of a child. I'm interested to hear Joeli's own personal story that gave her the impetus to get started. But also to understand more about how a passion becomes a project, how that project becomes a lobbying campaign with impact, and then a movement which captures the hearts and minds of working parents around the world. Joeli Brearley founded the Pregnant Then Screwed campaign after a personal experience of discrimination when pregnant with her first child. The campaign now operates internationally and lobbies for legislative and organisational modernisation to ensure recognition, respect and change for working mums and dads. Connect with Joeli on Twitter. You're listening to Reworked, the EW Group podcast on workplace culture. For more on EW Group and the work we do to build inclusive cultures, follow us on Twitter.

In this episode I spend dawn with those that feed us. I travel the city centre streets of Manchester with Dave, a milkman with Creamline dairies. I take in the smells and sounds of the wholesale market at Openshaw with Lucy Noone and her dad Mike, who run R Noone and Son, supplying fruit and vegetables to cafes and restaurants across the North West. And I watch fresh bread being made at the Trove bakery in Levenshulme with Alan, the father of Kate who runs the business with her partner Marcus.

on February 23, Greater Manchester Police were called to Levenshulme by two witnesses who reported a man with a gun behaving in an agitated manner. The attending firearms officers tasered the man and subsequently discovered he was blind and that what had been thought to be a gun was, in fact, his folding white cane. This follows a similar incident in 2012 when a blind man's white stick was mistaken for a samurai sword. In last week's case, the police apologised, and the Professional Standards Branch of Greater Manchester Police, carried out an investigation. It found that the police had acted appropriately and the blind man has not, thus far, made a complaint. We speak to Solicitor Advocate Sophie Khan who represented the case in 2012 on her concerns about the training undertaken by police when it comes to tasering vulnerable people. Steve White, chair of the Police Federation of England and Wales, tells us that the training and policies in this area are constantly being reviewed. Red Szell tells us why he's decided to part with his firs guide dog after nine months. Presenter: Peter White Producer: Lee Kumutat Editor: Eleanor Garland.
