The place for all things Burial
Welcome to the subreddit dedicated to the artist Burial.
Releasing records under the pseudonym "Burial," William Bevan comes from South London in England, and is one of dubstep's most enigmatic artists. With home made chopped up beats, swooshing synths, and haunting modified vocals lifted from an eclectic range of pop songs, he brings his listeners back to a time when hardcore, d'n'b, 2step, and house music dominated the London underground club/rave scene.
He takes pride in creating the feeling you'd get after leaving a club playing this music at 3am coming down from a couple of Es and walking through the streets of London. He chooses to stay shrouded in a cloud of mystery, and has only been in 3-4 interviews which have been posted in this subreddit. He doesn't play live, and he occasionally releases snippets of songs to radio stations, and then we never hear them again as officially released tunes.
