FIST, a New York queer techno party, marks its ninth anniversary with the compilation "Fun is Still Transgressive, Vol. 1." The 17-track digital release features contributions from notable artists including Ryan James Ford and Baby Blue, showcasing diverse musical styles. This compilation reflects the dedication of founders Danny Leyva and Dre de la Peña to promoting underrepresented voices in music. Revenue from the album will support the Ravers for Palestine Strike Fund. The party also hints at the launch of an official label and merchandise for fans, signaling new developments ahead.
The 17-track compilation flows like a night at the party: in perpetual motion, slippery in genre, and relentless in rhythm. Fun is Still Transgressive, Vol. 1, a digital release of new tracks from FIST alumni and extended family, is a testament to the scene built by party founder Danny Leyva and his co-resident Dre de la Peña, rooted in the pair's commitment to deep musical connoisseurship, platforming othered voices, and intense, freaky fun.
The release embodies this ethos, with 100% of its proceeds going to the Ravers for Palestine Strike Fund. Fun is Still Transgressive, Vol. 1 now signals the techno party's evolution with a new eponymous label and rumors of a long-awaited merch drop for its devoted fans.
