Young, Gifted & Black: Black Women In Dance Music

Welcome to Dance inc. This week we’re celebrating the black women who have shaped club culture through the ages! From techno to tropical house there’s a black woman shaping nearly every genre of music, yet rarely are they acknowledged for their achievements. That’s about to change…..

Presenter Goldierocks welcomes three super influential women in the industry to the Dance Inc. studios - Jaguar Bingham,a DJ and broadcaster working across Reprezent and BBC Introducing, Yewande Adeniran, a journalist and regular contributor for Gal-Dem.com who runs her own nights and DJ workshops called Intervention - for women, non-binary and LGBT+ and people of colour and Amanda Maxwell who not only runs the global offices of Boiler Room but is also a board member to the women in music collective She Said So. They’ve picked some tracks with black women behind them and will be chatting about what both the tracks and the industry means to them.
