CROP RADIO x PRETTY DISTURBED 24-HOUR STREAM FOR PALESTINE -
This Friday, through our 24-hour-long stream, we will be raising funds to support the ongoing efforts of The Sameer Project, directly aiding families in Gaza and supporting political prisoners impacted by their opposition to the ongoing genocide.
We’re inviting an array of DJs, activists, community leaders, musicians, and talk show hosts to soundtrack a full day of broadcasting live from The Radio Room.
Come down to the CROP studio throughout the day, buy a print or a t-shirt, and support the fundraiser in person. Or tune in online via our site. -

All shows will be archived on YouTube and SoundCloud in the coming week, so keep your eyes peeled to listen and watch back.

Awedinary has quickly become renowned for her versatility, storytelling and ability to connect with different crowds while remaining unmistakably Awedinary.
Heavily influenced by her midlands background, her often dark and ethereal sound gives us a unique journey through subcultures with exciting blends along the way; from grime and punk to dubstep and doom metal.
Awedinary has been making waves in Manchester and beyond having recently guested on Martha's well respected NTS show. She has already graced Manchester's most iconic booths from The White Hotel to @derbybreweryarms and is midway through a residency on the North's most exciting new community station; @crop.radio

@aeon__fux gets straight to the point with a vibrant arsenal of hardcore sounds - nothing is off limits. A purveyor of folklore and futurism alike, Aeon’s sets oscillate between brooding bass-lines, bumping rhythms, and moments of pure club euphoria. A lover of the electronic avant-garde, Aeon sends dance floors into overdrive with sounds seldom heard outside of a 3AM Soundcloud deep dive.
A place to dream but not an escape; Pretty Disturbed is grounded in resistance. We are truly thankful and excited to be joined by these wonderful panel guests who will be talking to us about what needs to change in the scene and how we can achieve a healthier, more fulfilling, more vibrant, thriving scene.
These people are really doing the most and we adore them. We hope you join us early doors at @carltonclubmcr to catch our panel talk and allow them to move and motivate you.
The panel talk will be free. This event will only be ticketed from 7pm
Introducing our host; an alchemist of sound, @_mamba.exe_ is a driving force within the underground scene. Shifting seamlessly between explosive, avant-garde mixes and sharp, merciless and charismatic lyricism, she injects every performance with an infectious intensity and volatile unpredictability.
From The Warehouse Project and The White Hotel to Carnival and Hit & Run, she has carved out a reputation as a disruptor, shattering boundaries and igniting dancefloors with surgical finesse.
Mamba.exe will also be closing out the garden with some gorgeous 140 selections before we move inside.

Introducing tee who has been a regular on the Manchester circuit for over 5 years.
Currently holding down a residency at Soup where he’s known for consistently raising the room, transforming the bar into a dance floor and spinning it all; from ambient to electro and everything in between.
A long time member of Trax Haven, tee became known for his unique approach to the uk footwork style and supported DJ Assault among others.
Expect an eclectic mix and some big chemistry as he B2Bs with @ship.sket for a 2 hour exploration of their unique musical palettes
It does not get more Pretty Disturbed than @clemheleneents - we are blessed to be hosting this champion of UK-influenced bass music, complex rhythms, and broken breakbeats. Clemency sandwiches sweet lullabies and anthemic lyrics with unsettling beats and unconventional musical backdrops, uniting noir and twisted emotions with frenetic percussion and beatless moments of grandeur.
Enjoy these insane clips from some of her sets and mixes; some of which include queen @_mamba.exe_ who will be on mic duties on Sunday.
Residing on the airwaves with NTS Radio, Clemency hosts a monthly residency for @mutualismuk , an artist collective based in Manchester and Cologne. Her production is heavily influenced by dub and bleep techno, desiccating the structures of UK bleep styles to a drily hypnotic, residual groove of resonant subbass and skeletal, flickering limbs.
We truly cannot wait to see the magic she creates alongside @les.boon for their 2 hour b2b
