Today’s episode is sponsored by Cindy Wang at Douglas Elliman Luxury Real Estate from the Garden City office. Let’s get into it. Somewhere along the way, the DJ booth stopped being a place where records were simply played. It became something else. The people inside it were no longer just selecting songs for a crowd. They were shaping the movement of an entire room — stretch...

The women we’re about to spend time with changed what was possible inside the house music club culture. And the rooms we dance in today still carry the results of these women accomplished. Picture this. It’s 1990. Clubs from New York to Manchester are already shifting into the new sound that’s forming between Chicago house and the explo...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. The Sound System Era: From Richard Long to Ministry of Sound Hello Sexy Listeners! I'm ThatPodcastGirl C.Dub, and This Is A Podcast About House Music. At the turn of the 1990s, the quality of sound became the next frontier for the club experience. You could feel it before the DJ even mixed out of the first record. The air held differently. The bass didn’t wobble near the bar and vanish near the bathrooms. It rolled. Even. Intentional. Yo...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. I’m ThatPodcastGirl C Dub, and This Is a Podcast About House Music. Today I want to let you in on what we’re doing for the next few episodes, because it’s a very specific kind of tour. We’re following two curves that rise together. One curve is the size of the room. The other curve is the size of the sound chain. House music’s live ecosystem didn’t scale because DJs suddenly got more talented. It scaled because the rooms changed, and...

Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Hey everyone, It’s C-Dub, your host, and This Is A Podcast About House Music. In our last episode, we spent time in New York City, talking about how clubs expanded in the 1990s, how rooms grew larger, how DJs became more visible, and how nightlife began to intersect with spectacle in a very particular way. Today, we’re staying with the same decade, but we’re shifting geography and energy. We’re going to Chicago, and we’re talking about what ...

In the early 1990s, I was still a kid, moving from elementary school toward middle school, at that age where the world feels like it is quietly inflating around you. Stores seemed enormous. Television felt louder and more colorful. Fashion was shinier, bolder, and full of confidence. Everything about the decade suggested expansion, as if the culture itself had taken a deep breath ...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. I’m C Dub, and This Is a Podcast About House Music. In the last episode, we talked about how house music entered Europe and how DJs learned to play entire nights through sequencing and patience. That story explained the method. This episode is about what happened when that method met bodies at scale, MDMA, and spaces that were never designed to hold what followed. The turning point in the United Kingdom is often dated to the summer of 1988. ...

We’ve just crossed a thousand downloads, and I want to thank you for listening closely and carrying this with me. Tonight’s episode explores a specific question: How did house music enter Europe in the mid-1980s, before digital distribution, before file sharing, and before global club infrastructure existed? By the mid-1980s, house music from Chicago and New York had already begun circulati...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Under the vision of Peter Gatien, New York began to experiment with scale. Limelight, housed inside a deconsecrated church, offered stained glass windows and marble floors that glowed under strobes. The Tunnel stretched long and narrow, a place where each room carried a different fantasy. Club USA sat on Times Square like a wild attraction, complete with a slide that carried dancers from the balcony down into the crowd. Palladium mixed ballr...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Hey everyone, I’m C. Dub. And this is a podcast about house music. When we last left Detroit, house and techno were twins raised in the same neighborhood—one born of gospel and groove, the other of machines and math. But the story didn’t end in those warehouses. It kept growing, shaped by the people who carried both sounds in their bones. Kevin Saunderson was one of them. He was born in Brooklyn in 1964, but his family moved to Belleville, M...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Welcome back, beautiful souls… it’s that podcast girl, C-Dub. I wanted to give a quick shout out to our listeners tuning in from the UK tonight, thanks for your support from across the world. Tonight—especially since the episodes on New York, New Jersey, and Detroit House Music are leading our search charts—we’re leaning deep into the roots, starting with New York City. We’re not just touching the pulse of ’90s NYC house. We’re breathing the...

I'm thatpodcastgirl, C-Dub—and I want to thank all of you for helping us hit over 200 downloads in just three and a half months, across 11 episodes. JohnJohn guess what? We did it! This episode is called: The Record Store. Picture this: It’s the early '90s. Somewhere between grit and gold chains. Between big dreams and dirty sneakers. And on both coasts—if you wanted to find a sound, you walked into a rec...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. This is a podcast about house music. I’m thatpodcastgirl, C Dub, and I’m here to guide us through the untold stories behind the house music. This season, we’re remembering what was almost lost—what pulsed in the basslines and lived in the corners. Stories that stayed alive only because someone danced them into memory. Picture this: It’s 2024, and you’re in Berlin. A DJ pulls out a vinyl with no label and no sleeve. Just black wax and instinc...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. This is a podcast about house music. I'm thatpodcastgirl, C-Dub, and I'm here to guide us through the untold stories behind the house music. This season, we’re telling the stories that never made the headlines—the quiet ones, the erased ones, the ones still living in the basslines and breakdowns. House music rose out of the wreckage—after disco was declared dead, while AIDS was being ignored, and as Black and queer communities were pushed to...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Welcome back groove lovers! This is House Foundations, a podcast about house music. I’m your host, C Dub. Tonight, we’re heading to a city where house music caught fire and burned a new path through the streets. In Baltimore, the beats didn’t aim to please. They hit hard, ran fast, and refused to be ignored. Baltimore Club was carved from basement parties, roller rinks, street corners — born from a city’s need to dance through every hardship...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Hey everyone, welcome back to House Foundations. I’m your host, C. Dub. Today we’re in Detroit. A city that helped build the world and then turned around and built its own sound. The factories shaped the rhythm. The people shaped the feeling. What came out of that was house music that didn’t need permission, and a techno scene that grew from basement parties into global influence. Let’s start with the Belleville Three, who were three high sc...
Send us a text if you like it and want more of it. Hey everyone, welcome back to House Foundations. I’m your host, C. Dub. Last time, we were in early ‘90s New York City—Shelter, the Sound Factory, ballroom heat, and sacred sweat. This week, we cross the river. Welcome to New Jersey. Same era, but with a different spirit. Let’s get into it. New Jersey house wasn’t trying to impress anybody. It was unfiltered. Gritty. Gospel-soaked. It moved through basements, clubs, and record shops that did...
