With darkened skies in the daytime, the city has not had rest in years. Hollow skyscrapers loom, emblazoned with the scars of long-cooled structure fires from the great fragmentation. A renegade human technologist seeks to unite the remaining humans in an uprising against the machines.

Bad Guys Get Dead is a multi-instrumentalist and multimedia producer hailing from Pittsburgh, PA, USA. Bringing dramatic and cinematic electronic music with a distinct reverence for nostalgia, expect a wide range of genres and timbres. Many of Bad Guys Get Dead’s artworks pull inspiration from video gaming and classic science fiction concepts.

The debut album Magmasquid3D (Original Game Soundtrack) alludes to the golden age of 16 bit videogaming, while singles like The Treatments and The Man Machine and the Phosphor & Resistor EPs pay homage to the cyber horror and realities of runaway technology. Most compositions have a particular lean towards the dystopian, with a tendency to build tension using film score structures.

A soundtrack for the end of the world.
