i just saw pretty lights 3 times this past weekend (opening for sound tribe in madison and chicago, and at a sound tribe after party in chicago) and it was off the hook. i danced holes in my socks and blisters on my toes.

yeah I got turned on to them at an STS9 after party earlier this year.. and I think they’ve become my most listened to artist in my itunes.

Glad to see people talking about these guys

wow, Wow, WOW!!!! Need I say more?

Just downloaded all 3 albums on his website. Amazing. My wife and I listen to this when we cook, clean, smoke (hookah), …everything. This is our sound – what we’ve been looking for. Thank you!!!

Pretty Lights Music Helps Me See and Feel

pretty lights is my favorite, im curious as to why these two songs were picked though. although they definately show the chill side of pretty lights i think EVERYONE needs to hear “More important than michael jordan” and “Hot like Sauce” and what i always feel like is their signature song “Finally moving Remix”

go and see the pretty lights!

@john

I agree with ya, I really love “Hot Like Sauce” and “Finally Moving Remix”, but Kyle’s two choices are definitely up there with the rest, especially “Solamente”.

summer camp was sick cant wait for north Chicago cause its HOW WE DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After watching the Pretty lights concert many things stood out to me that were clearly related to class this semester. The band doe an unbelievable job in the “Hot Like Sauce” performance and Northern Illinois University that can easily be found on “youtube” Pretty Lights focuses on the use of beats and electronic synthesizers along with their fantastic light show to produce an unbelievable concert. The way in which the lights flow with the beats is an incredible thing to see. It almost as if the crowd is one giant being that flows with the beats produced by the band.
I use the term “band” loosely because Pretty Lights is made up of a couple of people putting on an extraordinary light show, with Derek Vincent Smith assuming the role of the “dj,” slicing, scratching, and supplementing tracks, accompanied by David Eberhardt on an acoustic set of drums. Initially hearing Pretty Lights I wasn’t a huge fan. Now they have grown to become one of my favorite producers. Pretty Lights combination allows for new levels of the rave/electronica style music that they produce. With the production of lights taking on a naturalistic feel inside the arena. The lights transform a dark arena that can be used for a number of things into a trancelike wonderland with the aura of what is similar to the Northern Lights flashing through the midnight sky. The natural reaction by the entire crowd once again becomes trancelike with the music and lights.
The music is unlike anything else. The way the beat continues to feed from the previous beat is incredible. The change in pitch allows for opportunities to be endless for what is coming next. You can feel the anticipation and excitement for the transitions, which is a wonderful thing to witness. The heavy hitting bass in the song allows for the more electronic sounding beats to surround the heavy hits of the bass. The uniqueness of Derek Vincent Smith’s performance is how original they always our and the personal spur of the moment flair that he can add onto his performance. As the levels change the song goes through changes. It seems that there is a different mission on each stage of the song. In the beginning of the song the mission is to let the energy of the crowd build and allow for the trance like scene to become more natural and flow as one. The lights then increase as the beat increases and allows for the best part in my opinion of the light show when the bass hits. The lights sometimes freeze and become still when there is a transition going on as well.
Smith and the rest of his crew do unbelievable job with the use of their technology in producing such great music. The totally computerized beats allow for a wonderful party like atmosphere. The rave style music is up and coming and Smith has so much more that he can produce. “Hot like Sauce” is one of Smith’s all-time greats and allows for the crowd to be one with the beats and become part of the music.
