Feels like this song has been stuck in my head forever.  Because it has been.  Thank you.

Saw them live last night, absolutely insane energy

This reminds me of so many feelings and moments and places - none that I can put my finger on, but its so nostalgic to so many parts of my life at once.  I love it

Starlit Skies - The Hidden Shades

Heres the second single off my new album "Soap Box". Its a downtempo feel good track and probably my favorite off the release. I hope you dig the tune and make sure and check out the full album dropping on Super Best Records June 10.

Forever In A Day

Elements is a tribute to alchemy, the transformation of matter. I always believed that sampling has the potential to transform a dusty, forgotten moment into a vibrant landscape of fantastic impossibilities. Music has an alchemic property, transforming silence into song, nothing into something. I chose Fire, Air, Water, and Earth, the four basic element of alchemy, as seeds for these songs. 
The first, Slivers of Light, represents fire, the sun, and the light given by both. Your Ghost, a song dedicated to the memory of my father Tadeusz Menert, signifies the element of air, and the unseen spirits therein. Eventide's two parts embody the duality of water: Part 1 is the turbulent high tide, water's destructive powers, crashing along the shores into Part 2, which sweeps through the lifegiving and cleansing properties, a low tide of sorts. The album closes with Quiet Earth, a song for my mother, Jolanta, as well as the earth that we chisel away at as a species. This song begins with the noise of humanity, with a lone voice cry out "Do you see, just what you mean to me" until the commotion calms, signifying the end of us, a finality, a quiet earth. 
I hope you enjoy what I consider my favorite work so far, remastered and released as a whole, digitally, for the first time ever.

I thought we lost you
Thought you was down and out and you couldn’t see
Turns out I was wrong, dear
and you are much stronger than me

So when we go out tonight
We will lift you high
And I’ll be by your side
Cause you know that you survived
A wild, wild ride

In this adventure there are things you cannot predict
Behind each doorway there may be shadows but they’ll never stick
You are a force to be reckoned with
You are a dreamer, a saint, stronger than wire
You wont be cheated by
Any crooks, any thiefs, any liars

So when we go out tonight
We will lift you high
And I’ll be by your side
Cause you know that you survived
A wild, wild ride

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 www.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
