Producer and Songwriter.
Owner of ‘The Infinite Order of Working Ideas’ studio. DM for projects.

FLYETISM is more than a reimagining of 2025’s Quietism. It illustrates the creative moments that lead to Quietism while showcasing the community that helped build it. Only seven out of twelve tracks are remixes while the rest represent the steps along the way.
“When I started gearing up for what would become Quietism, I was playing with new styles and tone. Written while building my studio in 2023 and inspired by the talk-singing ‘crank-rock’ of the UK, I thought Comeback would be the lynchpin of the record. Ultimately it felt a little too far out to hold things together and I quickly moved on but I felt it a necessary creative moment. This play also resulted in a 2023 demo: Adam Goldberg’s Vine. The Zilla Rocca produced Get There Fast was written in early 2024 and although it knocks, I felt the energy was a little bit more indignant than I’d like to move with. Included in the collection is a demo from the 2020 quarantine era; Poolside was written during the Cool Code and Don album and never felt like it belonged anywhere as a song, but provided the narrative songwriting I would later revisit. In the spirit of remixing, The Ballad of Mint and Chip (from Damn The Man Save The Empire) also gets the sauce.
These are a few places I’ve been, where I have been going, and hopefully where I am headed.
Stay FLY.” - ialive
All tracks written, recorded and mastered by ialive @ The Infinite Order of Working Ideas in Philadelphia, PA. Thank you to Zilla, Height, OldGold, Darko, Small Pro, Esh, Castro, Garfunkle, Self, andrew and everyone involved for their contributions. Peace to all.

Last winter, the boys from Ronald Raygun (@toadstoolraps + @danfrombothbands) had @_nahreally_ , @ialive + Wave Generators over to eat a hearty stew before our Providence show. We cooked up this heater as the stew was bubbling up in the dutch oven.
Thanks to @el.gran.e.records for including this jam on their brand new Liberation mega-compilation.
The following are the organizations El Gran E will donate all proceeds to:
Gaza Birds Singing - Musical support group born during displacement in Gaza

HEAL Palestine - “non-political nonprofit organization founded in January 2024, in response to the unimaginable devastation in Gaza, where thousands of lives were lost in a short period, impacting generations for decades to come.”

3 test presses of Quietism left! All hand drawn by yours truly. (Using my daughter’s materials, while she sat next to me drawing 500 letter A’s.) go to @threedollarpistol to grab one. My grandfather fought nazi’s and apparently I do too. I love the snow but we can all agree that ICE is for losers with small dicks.
The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories.

Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
