The city’s House Music Festival and Conference is back, which means it’s time for a dance break. We’re revisiting a conversation we had in 2022 with the co-hosts of WNUR’s Vintage House Show, DJ Lori Branch and archivist Lauren Lowery, about the roots of house music, the legacy of the now-landmarked Warehouse, and modern reinterpretations of the genre.
