Thanks to my friend Lexie who asked me to play on their FM radio show 777 for 88.3 WRCT. :)

Thanks to my mom who helped me move apartments while I was prepping this, giving me the space to explore and regulate in transition. :)

Thanks to music for teaching me what resonance feels like. :( :) :( :)

"The snail built its shell line by line, secreted through the mantle, a fleshy hood that separated the internal organs from the outside. The newest layers of shell were the ones closest to the main body, while the oldest parts of the shell were farthest away. The mantle, filled with nerves that collect to clusters of ganglia, was the closest thing the mollusk had to a brain. Therefore, whatever it thought, it secreted, and the secreted story became the shell, the testimony.
...
How could she possibly know, at this moment, the pattern of her shell? Contents can't see outside the parameters of their own packaging; it would be like questioning your mind with your own mind. All she could do was add to her shell, one line at a time, in layers, like writing. Then she would be able to look back, one day, to see what she was creating." [Anelise Chen]

“Finally, its own growth begins to crack the shell, and the world as the chick knows it is coming to an end. Its sky is falling. As the chick wriggles through the cracks, it begins to eat its shell. In that moment-growing but fragile, starving and cramped, its world breaking-the chick must feel like it is dying. Yet once everything it has relied on falls away, the chick is born. It doesn't die, but falls into the world." [Mark Nepo]

Furtive is a full-gonzo rave conjurer and relentless creative tinkerer, intractably committed to the rave as a Philadelphia-based producer, DJ, underground event organizer, and dancer. A shifting sonic chameleon, Furtive brings a scintillating, sentimental, and psychedelic touch to their artistry, rooted in wormhole-traversing technoid propulsion and dependably delivering riotous, slack-jawed whiplash moments of the delightfully unexpected. Their many polished and focused genre-spanning productions are informed by over thirteen years of experience in the studio, yielding a rich selection of tracks across their self-released discography, vinyl pressings, and contributions to compilations. A veritable product of the contemporary American underground, Furtive cut their teeth as a DJ and DIY event organizer in Washington, DC’s warehouses, where they once played a variety of turnkey roles in putting on some of the District’s more proper techno parties. Furtive co-founded and co-runs Bounce House, an intimate, blossoming off-the-books venue in Philly where they regularly hold court as a resident. Furtive is on broadcast monthly through Ashen Vanity, a radio residency at Philadelphia’s indispensable cultural mainstay Great Circles. As a DJ, Furtive has played hallowed halls (recently rampaging at Nowadays and Basement), dingy holes, roaring renegades, broadcast booths, and festivals (The Great Beyond '23, '24, and headlining in '25, Honcho Campout '24, Making Time '25) - always with eclectic selections and a steadfast focus on pacing and dynamics while regularly jumping genres to build moving and impactful sets, often alongside internationally celebrated, no-nonsense acts. Beyond the fog and speaker stacks, Furtive creates art in a variety of mediums. They're as unapologetic in their sincerity and flair as they are in being a die-hard True Believer in the rave.

As a closing note: the journey can be summarized in their own words (or, a cheeky amalgamated existential portmanteau): “I aim for the stars, but sometimes I land in a pool of mermaids.”

I make music with the intention of exploring the infinite acts of creation that connect us all, and to also create new space for spirits of sound to collaborate in what seems to be their desired ways. In this process I mostly see myself as a conduit which ties the strings of sonic-self-expressions of others together, however, these expressions then emerge in new ways that feel so undoubtedly like myself that I must also acknowledge the role that my ego and spirit has in this equation.

Chopping samples is a meditative experience. The process continually contextualizes my understanding of self as one with everything that has ever been and that will be, all existing simultaneously in the eternal now. Producing music provides me with peace along my personal timeline with growth. Through the upmost veneration and collaboration with all that has come before me, "my songs" come together. I hope they provide you with an instance of peace and happiness as they do for me:) All of my cover art is made by me as multimedia collages:)
