Throughout house music history, women have often gone uncredited and underappreciated for their contributions to timeless club favourites. For International Women’s Day 2024, DJ, songwriter and vocalist Kaleena Zanders puts on a bright, uplifting mix of powerhouse anthems to rightfully honour some accomplished artists and producers. “I wanted to be extremely intentional about capturing that soul from women, and womxn, from all different race backgrounds,” Zanders tells Apple Music. “It’s so important to know the tastemakers and groundbreakers that are moving culture—and so many of them are women, queer and POC people. This mix will definitely put you in a good mood!” Join the DJ’s celebration of rising stars and unsung heroes—with tracks featuring Hayley May, House Gospel Choir, RaeCola and Zanders herself.
