Dance Music 4 Bad People is Chicago legend Hieroglyphic Being’s debut album for Smalltown Supersound. Drawing on the same cosmic frequencies responsible for the prolific house virtuoso’s most important works, the album sees the artist extricate nine anthems for the ill-inclined from the ether. With driving drum machines and sensuous synths, Hieroglyphic Being pays homage to human fallibility and emphasizes house music and club culture’s revolutionary potential, often lost in the chaos of the present.
