HIEROGLYPHIC BEING
A ROMANCE OF 2 PLANETS - LIMIT
All-new EP from Hieroglyphic Being, aka Jamal Moss, active on the Chicago scene for over 15 years as a prolific DJ, producer, and artist in his own right. With his Hieroglyphic Being project he has nailed a highly unique sound that draws from a melting pot of influences such as acid, Chicago house, industrial, and new age music, which is produced through primitive means and successfully captures a raw intensity that other artists in his world often promise, but rarely ever deliver convincingly. His work stands alone in his field as being highly individualistic, and Jamal continues to follow his own special path after countless releases for labels such as International Deejay Gigolos, Mathematics, 6277, and even Sony Europe. A Romance of 2 Planets presents three lengthy new pieces, comprising just under half an hour of off-center techno which incorporate primal four to the floor drum machine stabs, erratic and disjointed melodies that duck and dive around arpeggiated synth lines, and a self imposed rough style of editing. Limited to 500 copies housed in color LP sleeves. |
