Starting off your scorching hot Thursday with an all new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we cool off and head over to Denver, CO where we encounter the groove inflected sounds of Pretty Lights. Pretty Lights is the brainchild of Derek Vincent Smith, and the music is pure electro infused bliss with indelible beats that you can't help but to dance to, and the unmatched musicality from Derek shows you what you've been missing all this time. I must admit I'm a little late to the Pretty Lights party as I've heard of him for quite some time, but never had the opportunity to check out his music until now and I'm so glad that I did because it shows the bare bones essence of electronic music with some hip-hop and soul influences thrown in for good measure to balance out all the goodness that is emanating so strongly from his music. A terrific act that is definitely worthy of additional exposure here on the blog. Some recommended tracks for you to discover include "Color of My Soul" and "Press Pause".
