When you see @carrieondisco is playing, you know you're going to have a good time, and this epic mix is no exception. In Carrie's words:

"I wanted to start the year off with some Joy, nothing says Joy like Gospel and Disco. There a lot of Brixton and Queer Nation classics from back in the day. Enjoy <3"

Thank you Pako Vega @soundsofogigia

DJ Set At Sneaky Pete's For Sounds Of Ogigia (8.5.2019, Edinburgh)

Growing up in the UK, Carrie discovered her love of house music at the tender age of 14, when she started attending acid house parties. After moving to London at age 20, she became a resident DJ at the Friendly Society, a SoHo bar where she warmed up the London crowds before they went out clubbing. During her five-year residency, she also began playing at clubs and bars in Brixton, branching into soulful house and disco, having residencies at Plan B and Mass. She was fortunate to DJ with most of her DJ idols and favorite producers before leaving the UK for San Francisco in 2010. In SF, Carrie continues to play a combination of nu disco, classic disco, and house under the moniker CarrieOnDisco, with a singular focus on bringing joy to the dance floor. She is one of the resident DJs at the Stud.

Dorisburg live at Floresta - Waking Life '23

Recorded Sunday morning ... July 30th at The Great Beyond.

It’s been a while since I’ve put up a live DJ set. It’s also been a while since I’ve played a mostly electro set. Thought I’d take this opportunity at The Great Beyond this year to record a sunrise set driven by some of my favorite melodic electro tunes ever. Many which I’ve been playing for 20+ years.

We're elated to introduce our very special guest for the SPANDAU20 mixtape: @Efdemin 📼. A true legend in the electronic music scene, Efdemin embarked on his musical journey with his debut release in 2004, followed by his first album in 2006. Based in Berlin, he's not only a resident at the iconic Berghain club but also the curator of his vinyl-only label, naïf. His music is an embodiment of serenity and sophistication, characterized by an elegant darkness, subtle beauty, and a sense of unwavering composure. Efdemin's impressive discography spans LPs and 12-inch records on renowned labels like Dial, Curle, and Ostgut Ton. His versatility extends to remixes, including a memorable one for Depeche Mode, as well as his collaborative project Pigon with RNDM, and his exploration of drone and ambient soundscapes under his original name, Phillip Sollmann. 🎧

Efdemin's SPANDAU20 mixtape offers an immersive auditory journey, commencing with a potent voice sample from the celebrated artist Tracey Emin. The mixtape's sonic landscape is characterized by atmospheric elements, including the gentle sounds of birds, creating a serene and captivating ambiance. As the mixtape unfolds, it seamlessly transitions from ambient to deep, rhythmic beats. Its character is defined by sultry, groovy rhythms, complemented by the warmth of synthesizers that envelop the listener like a sonic embrace. Efdemin's deft use of vocal shots adds yet another layer of depth and intrigue, resulting in a rich tapestry of sound that promises a truly engaging experience for electronic music enthusiasts.🖤

DJ Plead - 23 October 2023

Function’s tale begins with a gregarious mother who would keep him occupied as rookie selector for neighbourhood gatherings while growing up in Brooklyn and New Jersey. Music was his world, and it wasn’t long before he found himself standing in awe before Jeff Mills in 90s NYC at the infamous nerve centre of Club Kid hedonism Limelight, where he went on to pick up a Thursday-night residency himself. Few DJs can claim to have been around during such a moment in club history, but ten years later came another. His friendships with Regis, Silent Servant and Female turned into the much acclaimed collective Sandwell District, a pivotal sound for an era that forced everyone’s attention towards Berlin. There he became Berghain resident and played a role in shaping the club’s fabled musical opus. In the years since (and following Sandwell’s dissolution) he’s matured in his own right, with a number of mesmeric releases (most recently ‘Green EP’ released on his self-run imprint Infrastructure back in May), collaborations with the likes of Vatican Shadow, Luke Slater and Steve Bicknell, a heavy touring schedule that criss-crosses the world at rapid clip and Bassiani residency to boot. Function’s techno is an ambient fog in which sinister arctic synths and perilous rhythms collide to produce an exquisite fusion that would be hard to mistake for anyone else. Those grainy textures, subterranean ripples and punishing kick drums are a hypnotic rework of his many influences: 90s loops with a more modern and sharper industrial edge. Bassiani Podcast 186 is an impassioned live-recording from the club that weaves through a number of hammering tracks and steadily climbs towards its furious climax. A hair-raising three-hour beast courtesy of this decorated techno behemoth.

Live @ Nowadays Nonstop - Jan. 20, 2024

This is a wild, unapologetic, barnstorming ride recorded between 1:00-4:00 on a throbbing dancefloor during the first leg of Nowadays Nonstop on the night of Jan 20. This was a romp of delivering my intentions passionately and precisely, playing many of my favorites, and operating at my very best across genres, traveling through a tunnel of engulfing psychedelic darkness, bass weight, shifting tempos, and beat structures into celebratory light. 

As an artist/DJ, these are some of the moments one lives for. It’s certainly something I’ve dreamed about for years. The opportunity to play in one of the rave’s hallowed halls - one of the most esteemed clubs and my own very favorite - was a dream come true and has been a quiet moment of apotheosis and vindication of years of dedicated, focused work. 

There are many nods and treats in this set: tracks shown to me by friends, absolute hypnotizing favorites and gems I’ve held onto, the voice of my true love, and (for those following my lore closely) the magic of opening with Phil Elverum’s work. Tracklist below:

Someone Sunny with Dan Beaumont - 18 May 2024

@furtivetrax at the Grove on Thursday night.

Campout Mix Series: Furtive

Concrète x Bounce House was an unreal, riotous ride of elation and revelry, the crest of a wild wave, an astonishing achievement of muscle, love, community, and die-hard DIY real-deal True Believer rave shit. It was an honor to work together with Yōsuke - the legend who launched the pier jawns in the first place - to manifest this magic with a team of the nearest and dearest. … as the pier always is, this was the most chaotic carnival of humanity, bringing in the delightfully deranged for a romp across shattered glass, weathered concrete, burning shopping carts, and whoknowswhatelse straight through into shimmering, smiling dawn. 

The August 10 collaboration was the second and final edition of Concrète in the wild summer of 2024. 

This romp really had it all, from close calls to magical moments. Yōsuke b2b Wrench opened the night with funky drum machine flow, Nail Salon pushed the machines further with classic percussive techno motion, DJ Anarres picked up with that soulful spirit of sincere techno they love, and Furtive flew into dawn from pulsing darkness into scintillating daybreak trance. From there, Yōsuke, Nail Salon, DJ Anarres, and Furtive go round-robin b2b until the amps gave out and the generator choked. An adventure of laughter, tears, genuine elation, and true friendship. 

Yōsuke had some nice things to say regarding this arrangement. We’re posting this here for posterity:   “Bounce House has been a stronghold venue in philly for 2 years now, holding a musical & community ethos close to its chest resulting in the most consistently well curated and safest space to lose oneself in the city. As they’re on hiatus through the brutal heat of the summer, the dj’s of the collective ~Furtive, DJ Anarres, Nail Salon ~ will be let loose into the open air to present their each individually unique and wide spanning takes on banging it out for you. Yes indeed!!  Wrench is a bit of a mystery to me. I was actually out of the country on vacation hearing his live guest mix on Vicenta’s radio show while getting ready to go out and thought, yes. Absolutely yes … you can see a real crate digger and lover of the music. With that, I asked Wrench to b2b with me to kick this night off. Looking forward to our literal & musical meeting and what chaos might ensue!!!”

Enjoy revisiting this summertime highlight.

Furtive - Live at Concrete 8/10/24

💥Recorded live at Bounce House on 1/1/25 between 1-3am💥

It's a real joy to be able to say, at the end of each year, something to the effect of "wow, that was a wild ride!" and reflect on a roller coaster of highs and lows, new insights, perspectives, constellations, and lessons learned. And indeed, 2024 has been a joyous adventure of bright triumphs to celebrate and knotted gnarls to untangle. There's a quiet sense of precarity simmering under all things when one operates in the cutty twilight zone of the barely-legitimate real-deal underground, so it's always truly precious when we have a chance to notch one more soaring night together and to celebrate a big loop through time, despite the feeling that the clock is ticking. So after the last grains of temporal sand have slipped out of the hourglass of 2024, join us to flip the whole thing over, inside, and out, and take the first steps into 2025.

Alternatively, if you're not into the foofy auspicious stuff like spiritually traversing the sand of time, and tracing meaning and destiny through solar and sidereal time and blablablabla, just come through to shake your ass, pop some bottles, hoot and holler, get a sloppy post-midnight new year's kiss, and kick off 2025 with fun and flair.... so come n' get it!!! We're thrilled to celebrate another HAPPY NEW YEAR with you!!!

We'll have Bounce House's reliable, adventurous residents taking us into dawn - familiar faces and seasoned selectors with the right sensibilities for surprise and celebration: that's Furtive, DJ Anarres, and Nail Salon, getting your asses moving across a free-form timetable, and Emme and Masina keeping those rowdy asses managed.

Furtive - Live at Bounce House 1/1/25

The essence of psychedelia is disrupting expectations and altering perspectives - what better place to do so than in the vortex of the rave? 

It was an incredible honor to be a part of the inaugural edition of System Activate. The entire weekender campout rave was an exercise in intentionality, a generous labor of love with visionary execution. Anchored by a single stage with a pristine sound system, brought to life by a seasoned, die-hard-DIY team, and animated with an incredibly unpretentious, open-minded, and imaginative crowd of ravers, System Active was truly a novel, eye-opening adventure that struck real sparks of psychedelic inspiration. 

I believe this is one of the finest sets that I have played to date. Completely at ease in the booth, I played fervently and completely from the heart. This is a totally honest and unrestrained rendition of my creative screwball sensibilities as a DJ, conjuring a propulsive rhythmic tunnel and peeling away into moments of whiplash slack-jawed surprises. Rooted in wormhole-traversing techno but stretching well into psychedelic sludge, shameless sentimentality, poignant lessons, heaving bass-weight, and references to formative personally-precious material, this is a completely earnest translation of my psyche that also incorporates the work of friends and peers. 

It was a deep joy to be in the company of so many brilliant and clever dancefloor scramblers and dear friends as I landed us in dawn's first light. I am deeply grateful for this experience, and excited to share this transmission from the vortex.

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.”
