This is probably the first legitimate song I've written in a while. Although I've written scraps of a few. This one is the most accomplished, in my opinion, and I'm quite happy with the results. I hope you'll listen! Thank you.

BURMAUNDERGROUND is the musical vehicle for singer-songwriter Robert Detman. An inveterate tunesmith born in Flint, Michigan, and based in Oakland, California, Detman has been attempting to reinvent the rock song for as long as he has been able to combine a set of chords and craft a melody. 

Conceived in Chicago in 1996, the band’s name was inspired from an NPR story about computer programmers in Myanmar. After years of deliberation and practice–and a move to the West Coast–fledgling songs were developed in the kitchen of Detman’s San Francisco Mission District apartment in the early 2000s. The writing flourished with an acoustic guitar, a borrowed electric piano, and effects found and created using reversed analog tape and the echoes across the cityscape on a lonely Saturday night. Those efforts, recorded on a Tascam digital recorder, birthed the spare production of the subdued yet catchy songs on 2005’s POST-WHISTLER RESTORER. Later that year, an offshoot of Detman’s sonic explorations, utilizing elements of ambient and industrial music, culminated in the experimental band CHERNOBYL, and the ethereal album NOTES FROM UNDERGROUND.

After a sixteen year hiatus, Detman returned to his musical excavations in early 2021, penning dozens of new compositions and, in 2023, the self-produced SUBAQUEOUS LUNAR AFFIRMATIONS, a song cycle that transmutes late night despair into revelations glimpsed at the dawn of a new day.

Inspired by timeless song craft, and with a penchant for discovery and pursuit of the unconventional, BURMAUNDERGROUND's music is a realm of indelible hooks, melodies galore, sincere yet unsentimental and emotional writing, executed with solid, exploratory production.
