Pretty Lights

Pretty Lights Show
Derek Smith
Although I'm a bit early, I have already begun preparing myself for the upcoming festival season.  The line-ups for shows this year happen to be just in time for a personal graduation present.  One of the bands that will be playing at many of the shows I'm planning on attending is Pretty Lights.
You may normally find me "slamming" on dub-step music, but this guy really does something for me.  The group consists of solo dub-stepper, Derek Smith.  The way he collaborates sounds and overlap prerecorded music is really interesting and always keeps me wanting to hear more.  Even though his songs tend to run on the long side, it's sometimes hard for me to decipher which songs are together and which are separate.  I like this, because it means I can listen to the song all the way through without getting bored of it or find it too repetitious.  Here's a question for you: who doesn't like free stuff? Pretty Lights actually posts all of his albums on the personal site (found above) where you can download them for free! If you would like to donate, however, it is always appreciated and a nice way to show support for the things they do. (: The one-man band is fantastic, both recorded and live so open  your mind and give him a listen!
