Good Morning Mix: Start the day with the shadowy ambiance of Gorgon City’s Burning Man set
Straight out of Black Rock Desert and to streamers’ speakers, Gorgon City‘s set from Burning Man‘s 2019 installment bestows an hour and a half of sauntering sound upon listeners, sans the playa dust. Akin to the slow burn of the Nevada sun at the height of day, the opening minutes of Gorgon City’s set simmer. They arch with a dark ambiance as the steady beat with which the full-length showing opens plods forth.
In contrast to the more animated, upbeat technics that have colored Gorgon City productions in the past, such as the Kaskade co-effort, “Go Slow,” the pair’s Burning Man set is more muted and minimalistic. It’s replete with dusky sonic drama and shadowy, synth-assisted climaxes; a musical match to the mood of the desert.
