about

Sympathies is a series of self-released compilations by Furtive, showcasing an extensive catalog of production. With their signature understated bravado and studio idiosyncrasies, the formerly DC-based producer reveals seven tracks of tuff drums, cryptic shifting textures, and weird acid on this second personal release.

The murky, serpentine track Zamenis kicks off the EP with clattering percussion and grinding textures set against a pensive, primordial atmosphere. This driving dancefloor wiggler can be slowed down to effectively add a more hypnotic, trippy mood to a mix.

Void Profusion is a bold, rolling track that pairs a pressurized acid line with veils of mirage-like gossamer pads. This track can serve as a hefty dancefloor cudgel or as cruise control in a dynamic, banging set.

KetAnemone is a scuzzy, slow-burning acid bomb that aptly conveys the stroboscopic propulsion and dissociative warehouse mayhem of powders creeping into the bloodstream

Sympathies II winds past the bellicose, clanging tones of Soma Vulture, the constricted and gritty synth punctuation of Karada, and Puncture’s malevolent synth stabs and glistening, flickering textures to arrive at Undivided. Opening with a commanding kick and rippling percs, Undivided immediately demands attention, building into a blissful, dreamy haze before slamming right back into a full-tilt acid workout. Too sincere to be over-the-top, Undivided is an exultant, shameless acid anthem.

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.
