BUTTONZ x Abby Vice – Time to Build a Home "Oops! All Swirlies Vol. 1"

This remix is my heartfelt tribute to @prettylights , an artist who inspired me to start creating music in the first place. Teaming up with the amazing @abby-vice , we reimagined “Time to Build a Home” with our own flavor,  blending soulful textures, lush melodies, and heavy-hitting bass to honor the original while carving out something fresh. This track is about transformation, growth, and finding your place in the world, all wrapped up in a swirl of sound.

The 16 tracks on MAIORA showcase producers who aren't just making music – they're crafting sonic landscapes where traditional boundaries dissolve. Each artist brings their unique perspective to the table, creating a tapestry of sound that's both forward-thinking and deeply rooted in musical tradition.

Each track unfolds like a chapter in a masterfully crafted novel, weaving together sounds from every corner of the globe. It's the kind of album that reveals new layers with every listen, like discovering hidden rooms in a familiar house. The production is flawless, but not in that sterile, overpolished way. There's breathing room here – space for the music to live and grow. One
moment you're floating through ambient soundscapes that could score a nature documentary, the next you're caught in a storm of carefully controlled chaos. The transitions feel natural, organic, as if these songs were always meant to flow into each other.

This isn't just an album you listen to – it's one you experience. Like all great art, it holds up a mirror to both our world and ourselves, reflecting back truths we might have missed. Long after, you'll still be finding new details, hidden meanings, and sonic easter eggs tucked away in its corners. In an age of disposable singles and algorithm-friendly playlists, this is that increasingly

Rebirth EP

BUTTONZ - No One Above You (Grand Alliance Music)

This visceral track from @mrbuttonz and @garlicparty combines glitch-hop and hip-hop influences with funk-infused bass music, creating a sound that's simultaneously playful and meticulously produced. The cleverly titled "Cheese" references a term for money, delivering both sonic punch and tongue-in-cheek commentary while showcasing the producers' exceptional technical abilities and creative synergy.

The single demonstrates both artists' signature production styles while venturing into new sonic territory. Listeners can expect hard-hitting bass lines, intricate glitch elements, and innovative sound design wrapped in an infectiously funky package. The track balances technical prowess with accessibility, appealing to dedicated electronic music enthusiasts and new listeners alike.

While this marks their first official release together, both artists have previously released music on Grand Alliance Music, where their creative relationship began. This collaboration exemplifies the label's commitment to fostering artistic connections across geographical boundaries and pushing the envelope of contemporary electronic music.

BUTTONZ & Garlic Party - Cheese [Grand Alliance Music]

this song means the absolute world to me. remixing it was something i thought about many times. and many times i decided it was not the right time.
i waited until i felt i was ready to give it the honor it deserves
i first heard this song 18 years ago and I've been trying to get better ever since. 

to have Derek play an early version of this out at elements is nothing short of a dream come true. what a treat it is to be alive and to make music and dance all together with one another. 

i hope you enjoy my take on this classic.

it is my North Star. 

onwards!

Thank you so much to everyone involved in putting this album together, and thank you to all the listeners that vibe to this music with me! <3

Pretty Lights - My Other Love (Lucid Vision Remix)

It was intimidating to touch one of my all time favorite PL tracks.. he's forever been my biggest inspiration artistically... and once I actually got into a flow state, this remix kinda just fell out of me... it felt natural, it felt good, I didn't want to touch it much more. PL's music, performance, cinematics, and really the whole movement has inspired me, and so many artists, in so many ways. I hope you enjoy this whole compilation as much as I do!!

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
