Canty blends the old with the new, the sacred with the profane, the tender with the explicit; their output both as a songwriter and visual artist occupies its own lane.

Moving and distinctive, Canty's 2025 mixtape Dim Binge is their truest testimony yet, a work of scorched autobiography that feels utterly distinctive.

The songs on Dim Binge have deep roots. The record reaches back to Canty’s earliest memories, before tackling their most recent dilemmas. A project prompted by what they term as “a few before-and-after moments” it looks beyond these crises to supply something universal. “Songwriting is something that just makes sense to me,” Canty says. “I love how melodies and words intersect. It’s sacred to me.”

Working from a mate’s flat Canty started “spewing ideas out” in an epic fit of creativity, matching musical exhalation to hours spent carving, scratching, and scribbling portraits on old pieces of cardboard. Canty began patching these together, a collage-like approach creating something multi-faceted, complex, but wholly striking. As Canty puts it, the sessions were “a binge cocktail of self-care, psilocybin and self-recording.”

The mixtape is matched to a book of drawings from this multi-faceted artist, and it’s given unity by elements of their live performances, with Canty helming pop-up events at underground venues across East London.
