This album will be available for free download 12/10 at www.PrettyLightsMusic.com

The Remixes collection is a full-length re-imagination of "A Color Map of the Sun." Derek Vincent Smith – aka Pretty Lights – invited producers from a wide stylistic spectrum to remix the tracks from his latest album. Derek produced "A Color Map of the Sun" with no intention of having it be an album of dance floor bangers, but rather a collection of music that can be enjoyed anyplace, anytime, all the time.

These 'Remixes' are other artists’ interpretations of his compositions and self made vinyl samples. The tracks are mostly intended to be hard hitting, but they are also just very different. See the track list below for all artists involved in the Pretty Lights’ "A Color Map of the Sun Remixes."

Particle - "Launchpad"

Particle - "The Elevator"

Inspiration (by Steve Molitz of Particle):

The title (and chorus) of the song, "Get Your Ass To Mars," is a Schwarzenegger line from one of my favorite Paul Verhoeven films, 'Total Recall.' I still have all my old cassette and VHS tapes from the '80s and '90s and one rainy day I watched a triple feature at my house: 'Total Recall,' 'The Untouchables,' and 'Enter The Dragon.' As I was watching, I pulled my some of my favorite quotes and samples right off the tapes in case I ever needed them. Around the same time, I was working on the beats and melodies for this song, and I had the idea that the high-intensity film quotes would fit perfectly with the explosive energy of this music. I dropped the quotes into the session, and got my ass to Mars!

"…get ready for a surpriiiiiiise!!"

"Get Your Ass To Mars" - by Particle

In the early new millennium, Particle became known as one of the true pioneers of the emerging livetronica scene. Known for their signature mix of high-energy dance music, rock and electrofunk, the ensemble helped pave the way for many of today's top livetronica bands.
Particle has performed concerts in eight different countries and has staged epic marathon sets at some of the country's top festivals, including: Bonnaroo, Coachella, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits. Particle is currently putting the finishing touches on the tracks that will constitute their first studio album in over a decade. 
Particle is led by Steve Molitz (keyboards/vocals) and Clay Parnell (bass/vocals) and features Mike Daum (guitar/vocals) and Kito Bovenschulte (drums).
