about

Sympathies is a series of self-released EPs by Furtive, showcasing an extensive catalog of personal production.

Sympathies I has Furtive coming in swinging with 5 uncompromising techno tracks.

With an ominous, benthic snarl, the EP opens with My Skull is an Alien Terrarium, an implacable warehouse pounder sporting bouncy but savage percussion.

Opilione is a blistering tumble along a sputtering, rolling bassline, skittering percussion, and delirious, glittering synths.

Parallax Sentiments is a high-voltage rave weapon. Shimmering, warping textures float over a reckless sprint of a drum pattern, as a dizzying synth arpeggio drives the energy higher and higher.

Perception Facets takes a step back from the peak-time savagery, allowing Furtive to demonstrate more angular takes on percussion in this stalwart, high-pressure tool.

Shadow Dance is a simple and functional, but ferocious acid track. Initially produced start-to-finish in just one hour, this aggressive little track was passed around among some DC and NYC DJs under the name “TAC I.” Shadows Dance is a slightly edited and re-mastered version for release on Sympathies I.

Sympathies is named after a series of portraits, experimental photographs, and weird VHS footage incidentally produced together with Furtive’s dear friend Mycie during a wild, debauched studio session.
