Great Albums (Taking Up Your Precious Time/Pretty Lights)

Year: 2006

The first full length release by electronic artist and DJ Pretty Lights. Each track is rich in melody and uniquely introspective. The album is almost completely instrumental, with only patches of vocals scattered here and there. Etta James' voice has been sampled in "Finally Moving", and the soul influence is also apparent on songs like "Down The Line", "Switch Up" and "Happiness". TUYPT is available as a free mp3 download on the official website.

Personal Picks:  "Stay", "Empty Station", "Samso" and "Try To Remember" give the album its richly dark sound.
