UTOPIA Talks

Aluna - being in AlunaGeorge & celebrating the Black and LGBTQ+ roots of dance music

Aluna is behind some of the most iconic dance tracks of all time, so we’re incredibly excited to share this week’s episode. Ten years on from Body Music, Aluna opens up about her time in AlunaGeorge, how she found her way to dance music and what barriers she has faced as a Black woman. We also chat about her new album, her collective Noir Fever, which centers Black and LGBTQ+ people, and the roots of dance music, which are often erased. @jaguarworldwide Produced by @kjbaxter_ Hosted on Acast.
