Interview + Download: http://truantsblog.com/2017/truancy-volume-179-cryptolect/ Soundcloud: @cryptolect Following from her crushing debut EP on UNO NYC, The Marrow In My Bones, we are extremely excited to see Cryptolect in the mix for Truancy Volume 179. Hailing from NYC, Cryptolect’s music rides the borderline of sensuality and melancholy, weaving together a wonder-world of emotional landscapes and images. It is an imaging body, conjuring filthy dystopian cities alongside tranquil waterfalls. The Marrow In My Bones is all drama, taking us from the manic purgatory of "Punished" to the balmier shores of "Creature", both littered with atrophied vocals and industrial lurches. For Cryptolect, music is an exploration of childhood imagination and illness, ‘a means of escape from the reality of being in constant pain’. These therapeutic images and the generosity inherent in their conception have us very excited about what she has in store for us next. Cryptolect blazes through Truancy Volume 179 in frantic style, darting between a slew of punishing tracks from the likes of NA, M.E.S.H and Mssingno, as well as Kelela and Linkin Park edits. We caught up with her over a quick chat about OSTs, edit culture, and the concept behind her debut EP.
