about

October 6, 2023: Cin the Ciege (he, him, thon) is an eccentric artist whose music transcends boundaries and captivates listeners with his self produced alternative sound and heartfelt lyrics. Born out of the intersections of being black and bi, Cin fearlessly embraces his unique identity and channels it into his craft.

Cin’s first official release, The Gaytrix, defies categorization, blending genres such as pop-rock, electronic, and hip-hop soul, resulting in a truly unique and captivating sonic palette. Lead single “Ugly Ass” makes it’s way as the official breakup anthem while being sonically reminiscent of the power puff girls and rocket power. “Craving” is where The Gaytrix vibes present themselves heavily with soothing synths and sex filled bass all narrated vocally in a darkened drawl. Drawing inspiration from personal experiences and societal issues, The Gaytrix delves deep into themes of self-discovery, empowerment, and the complexities of navigating a diverse world.

Via Cin the Ciege about The Gaytrix:
I took the red pill. I finally saw things for what they were, not what I wanted them to be. My entire life everything around me felt like a lie. I no longer wanted to live in that conundrum. I wanted to escape into truth. My truth. Welcome to the Gaytrix.
