Transmissions From Planet Groovy — Simsea [@simisea] (Recorded on 09/23/23)

Words from Simisea:

Groovy Groovy is one of the few nights where as a DJ, I know I’ll be held and supported by the dancers, organizers and community surrounding it no matter what journey I take them on. Tracing my journey of going to Groovy for many years, to collaborating with them on parties, to now playing the party for the first time this past September, I realized my Groovy arc has been fulfilled. Coming into this set off the back of a reinvigorating and inspiring time at Sustain-Release just the weekend prior, I had a lot of creative energy to exchange at Groovy. “Sexy party,” as Akanbi often says on the mic, is what I wanted to share, and I feel I accomplished that in what became one of my favorite sets I’ve played <3 Give it a listen and hope you enjoy! “Sexxyyyy paaartyyyy!”

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.”
