Summary: Well, that was a BIG FUN TIME! Yes yes yes Burning Man 2012 served us right and now we're back home in the Default World, dusting off, processing all the brilliant stimuli we saw tasted heard and felt, and trying to bring the best of it all back to our lives and relationships and work here at our "other home." I was extremely pleased with the amount of art on the playa this year -- major installations, interactive light and sound contraptions, quiet remote pieces in Deep Playa -- and boogied my ass off most nights at dance parties both enormously over-the-top and tiny family-style. I received a walloping whomping dose of Bass Chakra Therapy from Fractal Nation, Robot Heart, False Prophet, Buddha Lounge, Bass Camp & others, and lately have been seeking mellower sounds that act as a healing balm to blown-out mind and soul. This new mix is mostly downtempo, smooth, bubbling, spacey, warm and user-friendly. I am inspired by the sounds I heard at various lounge/chill parties where the music was soothing yet psychedelic, low-key but intriguing, somehow existing both in the background and foreground at the same time. Interdimensional Lounge Music features tunes by Sugarpill * The Polish Ambassador * Kalya Scintilla * Tipper * Bonobo * Pretty Lights * Nicholas Jaar * The xx * Emancipator * Thriftworks * Andreilien * & Gladkill.
