Queens of Club is a two-part VA collection celebrating established and up-and-coming women and non-binary producers of Ghetto House, Electro, Footwork & Breakbeat.

Queens of Club: Astral Booty by Sarah Farina

Raiders crew said of the release, "The title pays homage to the seminal Queens of Baltimore Club, a highly sought-after LP from various legendary female B'more artists (like Kotton the Cutie and Mz. Thang) compiled by DJ Technics in 2001. Almost two decades later and the club scene is still a hostile environment for marginalised groups and this compilation aims to address that. Queens of Club is by women/non-binary people, right down to the mastering engineer and the artwork designers, and intended for everyone who likes to shake their ass at high speed!"

A limited edition rose-gold 2GB USB stick is also available, containing both parts of Queens of Club and bonus tracks, unreleased demos, remix stems, samples, photos, videos and exclusive DJ sets.
