Elysia Crampton Presents Demon City

The spiritual Bolivian-American musician and writer, Elysia Crampton, is releasing her new album 22 July on Break World Records. Demon City includes collaborations with like-minded friends from around the world such as Chino Amobi, Dj Why Be, and Lexxi.

Written as an epic poem, Elysia Crampton Presents: Demon City is an official document of the Severo style. What is Severo, we hear you ask; “It’s an ongoing process of becoming-with, made possible by the family-networks and communities that have inspired and sustained our survival and collective search for transformative justice.”

As an artist who has helped shaped experimental electronic music over the past few years, it’s exciting to see how Elysia’s style has developed and the new ways in which she finds to share her narrative. For all the discussion and politics that surround her music, it’s still consistently refreshing, contemporary and, quite simply, great.

Elysia Crampton joins us Somewhere Else at Progress Bar in Paradiso-Noord, Tolhuistuin on Saturday, 4 June, where she’ll be sharing her new live act. See you on the dance floor.
