Suzi Analogue on a Life Changing Conversation with Crystal Waters, the Legendary Low End Theory nights and Discovering her Style

Academia meets lived experience of the culture, that’s what Suzi Analogue brings! Suzi Analogue is an artist, DJ, label owner of Never Normal Records and associate professor who has lectured on Mapping Black Music Ecologies at Harvard University. Born in Baltimore she's lived all over the world and brings a macro view of music which is very different to what we've heard on the podcast so far.Suzi Analogue talks to Emily about how a conversation with Crystal Waters changed her life, how attending the legendary Low End Theory nights in LA shaped her sound, the roots of B'more club music (known as Baltimore Club outside the city), deconstructs the power structures in the music industry and talks about her work celebrating the women written out of dance music history.Thanks for listening to Dances For Buildings.
