Austin has experienced a shift in experiential nightlife in the last few years, and instrumental in that shift has been Charles Mxxn and the Thank You For Sweating crew. As the name insinuates, there is only one goal at TYFS’ events: sweat. Originating in the Austin underground scene, Mxxn and his rotating roster of established and emerging DJ’s has taken to the cities most secretive basements and warehouse spaces to transform them fleetingly into all night, driving dance parties that push into the early morning hours. Purely DIY and intoxicatingly exclusive, these parties have garnered a reputation for leaving lasting impressions on those who are privileged enough to attend.
