London club crew PDA has dropped a red-hot compilation
Proceeds from 'And The Beat Goes On' will go to the newly founded Association for Queer Ethnic Minorities
PDA is the cult London club night run by Mischa Mafia, CrackStevens and Ms Carrie Stacks. They're celebrating six years in the game with the release of a 30-track compilation, out now via Bandcamp.
The crew reached out to artists who have performed at PDA in the past, collating a wide array of original tracks and edits from the likes of LSDXOXO, Coucou Chloe, Klein, Joey LaBeija, Total Freedom and many more.
The extensive soundtrack has been curated “for people to either reminisce or experience the sounds of PDA for the first time”. The release will raise money for the newly founded Association for Queer Ethnic Minorities (AQEM), as all proceeds will be donated to the cause.
AQEM is a new non-profit seeking to “unlock potential and drive social cohesion among queer ethnic minorities in the UK and beyond”. Founded by PDA's Ms Carrie Stacks, the organisation’s goal is “to provide a space for knowledge exchange, cultural expression and well being”.
PDA have released a lead single, and accompanying video, from the comp in the form of an exclusive SHYGIRL track called ‘Beauts’.
