Season 1: House Music by city and decade. Immerse yourself in stories of the birth of House Music and its regional influences. 

Season 2: Untold Stories in House Music. Listen to 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 the margins. It was protest. It was joy. It was survival. And the people who shaped it weren’t always let in, given credit, or remembered. We’re remembering them now.


This podcast is perfect for: people who like the style of an ASMR, spoken slowly, in a moderated tone, perfect for putting the entire season on autoplay while you do work in the background

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. 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...
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. Tonight we’re in New York City—not just the skyline, not just the clubs—but the spirit. Because house in the early 90s? It wasn’t just a sound. It was church. It was sweat. It was survival. New York didn’t birth house music—that happened in Chicago—but when it reached the five boroughs, it evolved into something more theatrical, more emotive, and more unapologet...

So, let's explore this together! Our story begins in the late 1970s. Pictu...

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...
