Summary: As the Burnal Equinox passes us by, we slip and slide our way down the slope towards another trip to Black Rock City. Burning Man 2011 begins to infiltrate my daily thoughts as I consider what Rites of Passage will rise up to meet me and my merry band of Get Foundlings. Here's a heavy-duty blend of bass music -- dubstep, whomp, glitch-hop, lazer -- to wake us out of our winter slumber and slap us silly in to the spring. This is not your mama's bass -- get ready to be aurally spanked! This is the time of year for cleansing and new growth, and this mix is designed to knock the moss off of your bass chakras as we stumble towards the playa, alone and together. Deep end contributions from Vibesquad, Opiuo, Bassnectar, Datsik, Nanda, Rusko, Thriftworks, Mochipet, Caligula, HULK, ill gates, An-ten-ae, Samples and MartyParty. Those getting the remix treatment include Sly and the Family Stone, Jamiroquai, Jefferson Airplane (?!), Nas & Damian Marley, Big Boi, Ellie Goulding and Kid Cudi. Lots more mixes, and the Burning Blog, at www.destinationburningman.com. Ongoing conversation at www.facebook.com/destinationbm. Feedback: destinationburningman@gmail.com.
