Pretty Lights, AKA Derrick Vincent Smith is one of the most progressive and forward thinking artists of this generation. His melodic, hip-hop beats combined with smooth and subtle synths create the ultimate kick back and chill track.

The album has been in production for years due to DVS’s need to add more original samples to his already one of kind style.
The long awaited album is coming out July 2nd, right around the time of Milwaukee’s Summerfest where he will be headlining on the main grounds. This means that you can be one of the first to see the album live for under 15 bucks, a real draw for Milwaukee.
The first single “Around the Block” featuring Talib Kweli is sure to impress even the toughest audience. The music video is the perfect accompaniment to the smooth track.
