Neptunian Influence Podcast, Twenty-Six | Featuring @adab

"3000 AD...

The Pan African Liberation Movement (P.A.L.M), having long since established a deep space orbital platform for Earth separatists in a dark region not too distant from Neptune, sends a recovery team to their deep space reliquary, “Osiris” on Neptune’s moon Larissa. It contains a multitude of PALM’s ancestral earth tribe’s sacred (and most secret) relics...

The shamanic council of elders foresaw that Larissa, on a slow spiraling orbit towards Neptune, would eventually start to shatter into a ring around the icy hot liquid giant...

The cataclysmic events have started, the operation is underway...

Extraction operators encounter a myriad of bizarre visual and auditory hallucinations during the mission as the moon slowly disintegrates into Neptune's noxious atmosphere of hydrogen, helium, and methane...

This is one." ~ADAB

Note from Whipnotiq: One of my favorite things about this mix series are the stories that are cultivated from exploring Neptune's influence. I am elated to invite you on this journey, for which ADAB has exemplified the beauty and vastness of Neptune's impact. ADAB, affiliated with Cleveland's @heavenisinyou and @in-training parties, DJ'd at our third annual brunch during Movement Detroit this past May, and we are pleased to feature them in this capacity now. Meet you in the Great Dark Spot <3

Is it reality or is it an illusion? With Neptune, it is hard to tell. Neptune's influence reaches further than the ordinary senses, so there may be aspects of extrasensory perception at work. Illusion, fantasy and dreams are the playing field here, and the spirit is the primary force. Leading to all things mysterious, Neptune's watery depths are associated with dreams, visions, and the imagination.

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) - 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.”
