Illusion of Safety is an adventurous and influential act in the realm of experimental and ambient music, known for its masterful collage of sound and thought-provoking sonic landscapes. The project, which emerged in the early 80s, is the brainchild of Dan Burke, who has been the sole constant member, occasionally collaborating with other avant-garde musicians to expand the auditory experience. Illusion of Safety's work is characterized by its bold exploration of noise, drone, and a diverse array of acoustical elements, weaving an intricate tapestry of abstract auditory narratives.

Over the years, the evolving project has gained critical acclaim for its ability to constantly reinvent and challenge the listener's perception of sound. With recent releases such as "Frontal" and the collaborative effort "Illusion of Safety & Z'ev," Illusion of Safety continues to delve into uncharted sonic territories. The albums like "Organ Choir Drone" and "In Our Little Bodies" exemplify the project's fascination with organic and synthetic sounds, creating a body of work that invites deep listening and contemplation. With a discography that also includes compelling titles such as "Rules Of The Game" and "Water Seeks Its Own Level," Illusion of Safety remains a significant and enigmatic force in the world of experimental music, ever-evolving yet consistently rooted in the creation of a unique and immersive sound experience.
