it was two years ago... I'm sure Burial has a bunch of new fans that might find this interesting that might be lurking about!

Oh it's a fine memory... not the thread, but the night I looked for the location.

Bump for old times sake.

I use the non-apple logo one...

it was so worth it... I almost gave up at around 15 minutes... but then I tried to think "If was him, and I wanted to take a shot of South London, what would I do?"

I figured he would take the shot from central London LOOKING South, so the "distant lights" were even more south london. So I zoomed ...

Easiest way to get there is go to:
51 degrees 27'03.93"N 0 degrees 11'46.80"

That is the center of the little circular road in the bottom right hand corner. Then rotate from there!

Looking for that thing is how I found it.

Drank some fine tequila, watched some Lost, and then listened to Burial's first disc... so fucking mind melting... ended up on Google Earth hunting down the cover photo. Being from the US and having never been to Europe... I had NO CLUE where it was other than south london... took me about 20-30 ...
