Jaguar examines gender disparities in UK dance music in new documentary podcast: Listen

DJ and radio broadcaster Jaguar has produced a new two-part documentary podcast that examines gender disparities in UK dance music.

Titled ‘Under The Lights: Being A Woman, Trans Or Non-Binary Person In UK Dance Music’, the podcast takes in contributions from a number of key electronic music figures, including Annie Mac, The Blessed Madonna, Jamz Supernova, Girls Don’t Sync and TAAHLIAH.

The documentary has been produced and released to coincide with International Women’s Day, and is available to listen to via UTOPIA Talks, as part of Jaguar’s cross-disciplinary platform that she launched in 2020.

Speaking about this latest project, Jaguar said: “I’m incredibly proud to be bringing out these podcast episodes with Stak this International Women’s Day! Since 2020 I’ve been on a journey where I’ve found my purpose: to champion minorities and give opportunities to those who really need it. I want to use my platform to help people and explore how we can create positive changes to reach a utopian world.

“Equality and representation is so important to me. It’s part of my identity, as a mixed race and queer woman navigating the world.”

The release of the podcast follows on from Jaguar publishing a groundbreaking report on gender disparities across UK dance music last year.
