Every year, to mark International Women’s Day, I create a playlist of composers I love. These are geniuses I am constantly inspired by.
My 2024 playlist is titled Weave A Matriarchal Dome, a phrase from Björk’s song Future Forever. To me weaving a matriarchal dome means changing the perspective and creating a society that values the empowerment of all and builds future scenarios in balance with nature.
Spotify and big streaming giants don’t care about these futures, but we artists do. So let the playlist be a starting point to then go buy the music of the artists you love, all the links to their music are below.
