Dust Storms & Rainbows : Burning
Man 2007
Our video podcast series of short documentaries from Burning Man 2007 continues...
"Dust Storms & Rainbows" is a tribute to the extreme weather events on the playa this summer. It was developed by moontroll and features music from Boards of Canada, Bassnectar and Disorient. If you are subscribed to the dBM podcasts via iTunes, the videocast will automatically download -- you can watch it on your computer or iPod -- just be sure to crank the volume!
If you aren't subscribed, you can view it on the Films page or over at YouTube (which streams the movie easily, but in crappy resolution).

"The Road to Burningman" by Latenight
Freakout's Caveman
Hey DJ Playaduster: Thanks for the
kudos on the mix CD -- it was an awesome piece of the multifaceted
experience that is burningman. Playing a sunrise set with
the Latenight Freakout Odyssey at the Boogie Universal camp Sunday
morning after the Burn was also a bizarre and magical
experience...
You absolutely may post the mix on your
podcast section. In fact, I could not think of a better place than
destinationburningman for a mix called "The Road to Burningman" to
reside.
One interesting tidbit about the name of the mix that I like is that is has spiritual and literal context behind the name. In preparing myself and the band for burningman (preparation is a road in itself), I had spent alot of time in ableton writing music/concepts for our future creative expressions on playa. This mix contains two of my remixes that were spawned off of this creative process. So in a sense, this mix CD and the band performances at burningman fulfilled my desire to participate by bringing art in the form of music to burningman.
The second literal meaning of the name of the mix, is the fact that the mix was actually performed in an RV as me and a good friend of mine drove to burningman from the SF bay area. I did the mix in Ableton live on a macbookpro with a m-audio trigger finger on my lap. All of the bumps in the road made mixing all the more challenging ;)
Most of the CD's that I handed out at burningman were burned while we waited almost 3 hours to get through the gate.
