This week on Songs That Saved Your Life, we’re diving into the history of House: the clubs, the creators, the politics, and the joy that shaped a global sound. From Frankie Knuckles to ballroom legends and all the way to Beyoncé’s Renaissance, we’re tracing how a genre born in Chicago basements grew into one of the most powerful expressions of queer liberation in music.
We'll hear music from Frankie Knuckles, Masters at Work, Phuture, Crystal Waters, Robin S., Stardust, Daft Punk, Madonna, and many more.
