Burnt – Phil Smart & Davey B
Back in 2002 my pal Phil Smart brought a minidisc recorder out to Burning Man to record the playa. He took the raw waves and worked some audiophonic majix with his mate Davey B, chopping & splicing & layering the sounds in Logic Pro. The result is a wonderful and evocative sonic meditation on the playa experience from his ears to yours. Highly recommended with headphones for a truly immersive engagement.
I hope to god someone nukes burning man, what a bunch of annoying pretentious BS.
And yes I’ve been, grow up people, being 38 and acting like a jackass is embarrassing.
absolutely amazing. i’ll be using these tracks as inspiration for an upcoming project (more than likely all under a CC license). more on that later.
cheers mate. great stuff, and wonderful way to share BM. :)
To each his or her own, but I don’t find these particularly interesting.
That’s great, man! Do you have it in MP3 format for those of use without iPods?
I love the sounds. It makes the experience seem right next to me!
Beautiful!
Sounds like it’s been inspired by The Beatles’ “Number 9″
I chose not to attend the burn this year to see what it’s like not to go. I will be listening to this during the burn for support of the event.

This is brilliant. This is going to be my first year. I think I’ll chill out to the BM ambience while packing. Thanks!
