Hey guys! If you thought funk ended with the 70s you're wrong. The Horndogz are still holding it down here in 2013 with that raw funk sound! I've been following them for a while after hearing one of their tracks on Wefunk Radio and I ended up asking them for the parts to this song so I could do a remix. They loved what I did with https://soundcloud.com/slynk/slynk-fried-chicken-remix and agreed! The track actually features the one and only FRED WESLEY! A funk legend and one of my biggest inspirations. Wow. 

If you want to hear more Horndogz, you should go here and buy this EP. It's fucking dope, seriously. http://www.uptone-records.com/#!product/prd2/592852501/horndogz---dogfood-vol.1-ep

We'd both appreciate some love on our facebook pages too. So if you like the track, like us on facebook!

Luxe Laredo feat Honey LaRochelle - No Man's Land (R/D + ill.Gates Remix)

Here’s the set I made for my 9th year playing in the Fractal Forest at Shambhala Music Festival. This year has been a crazy adventure of non-stop touring around the world, but Shambhala is always the most important set for me. 

Special thanks to Blackout JA for helping me to create the “Oh Shambhala” song and his other contributions, as well as my amazingly talented friends who send me such great music, stems and acapellas to play with. Without the forward thinking creative music community, I wouldn’t be able to make sets like this. Everything is edited and changed for my own purposes, the tracklist contains all the major elements of the set. 

I sincerely hope you enjoy, all the best from me.

Tyler~

The Heist

Same Love (feat. Mary Lambert)

"Yeah man this sounds great!" - PLUMP DJ'S

The original tune by Plump DJ's was from their debut album "A Plump Night Out" (2000) which was released on Fingerlickin' Records.

It was considered somewhat of a breakbeat anthem around that time, and I can safely say that it was one of the tracks that actually got me into electronic breakbeat dance music.
These guys were my favourite EDM artists for a very long time.

If you are unfamiliar with the original tune and curious to hear it, you can listen by clicking on the YouTube link below.

Thanks guys much love!

Do Or Die (feat. Childish Gambino) (FuntCase Remix)

Pre Order

Download A Color Map of the Sun, including 3 bonus tracks and the companion album Live Studio Sessions from A Color Map of the Sun, at prettylightsmusic.com

This is the first time I am releasing an album as a physical product at the same time as a digital version. The second disc of the double CD set contains 13 additional tracks straight off the vinyl acetates that I composed and created in order to make legit sounding samples for A Color Map of The Sun.

Like always, the album is available in its entirety as a free download via prettylightsmusic.com. For the first time however, I encourage you to purchase a copy of the album. There are two honest reasons for this. The main reason is that as an artist I have always reinvested any success I have directly back into the music, the show and the art that goes along with it. Secondly, this isn't just an album; it is a massive collection of music beyond what is on the CDs that I will continue to put out after the album release. There is an insightful documentary film on the making of this project to be released alongside the launch of the album, as well as a music video for every song. They are all beautiful and uniquely unusual pieces of art.

This "album" is a multi-medium map of my mind and my self. It is personal and honest and I put everything into it. I have stayed on the path of being a completely independent musician and with the help of every supporter and friend, we have transformed a simple idea into a movement, a cultural beacon of light. If you can, I encourage you to purchase a digital or physical copy of A Color Map of the Sun. If not simply support by sharing the music and sharing the idea. If there is any success to be had from this album, it will go back into my rule bending, never ending quest to channel beauty and taste through music and art.

Either way, I made this music for everyone. Support this release and let's show the world how we do. The time is now. - Derek Vincent Smith
