For our next in-store BBE Music & The Institute of Light and The #iamdj Appreciation Society are proud to host a free all-day party amplifying 7 women-identified DJs to celebrate International Women's Day (8th March) 2017, curated by #iamDJ Creative Director's Auntie Maureen.
Recognising disparity in DJ booths and on dance floors the electronic music world over, The #iamdj Appreciation Society has for the last 1.5 years been so bold as to loudly challenge the mis- and underrepresentation of women and gender queer music selectors. Thus far outlets have been a monthly safe-space listening circle for music lovers, a weekly Real House Radio show with a bold women and gender queer electronic music playlist, and now this upcoming celebration for #IWD2017 at The BBE Store inside The Institute of Light
Bringing together different musical histories and dance floors she has engaged with over 30 years of clubbing, creative director for #iamDJ Auntie Maureen has curated a diverse line-up of bold collectors, broadcasters, auteurs, DJs and promoters away from the usual bill of male connoisseurs:
12pm Cyndi Handson Ellesse ( Handson Family )
1pm Stav Bee ( Stav B's liquor bar / Reel Rebels Radio )
2pm Michelle Manetti ( Lipstick Disco / Fèmmme Fraîche )
3pm Ginger Fizz ( BFI London Film Festival )
4pm Marcia Carr ( Girlz B Like / Mi-Soul Radio )
5pm DJ GG ( The BBE Store ) & Auntie Maureen ( #iamDJ / Real House Radio )
Amplifying even more women's voices, #iamDJ will be boldly be passing around the donations bucket in order to raise money for The Women & Girls Network www.wgn.org.uk. This London charity aims to promote, preserve and restore the mental health and well-being of women by offering counselling, advocacy and advice to those who have experienced or are at risk of sexual and gendered violence.
To document #iamDJ's launch as Community Interest Company Hot Beef Sundae is filming on the day. The BBE Store will be open for trade as normal, so vinyl junkies and families alike can make a day of our #iamDJ celebration. Everyone is welcome!
Can't make the party? You can dance long-distance to the 6-hour live broadcast on www.realhouseradio.com 12pm - 6pm GMT/UTC.
This year for International Women's Day 2017 the campaign theme is #BeBoldForChange. Be bold and come dance to what we amplify!
