Pretty Lights, easily one of the most recognized names on the EDM circuit right now, has just released the video for “We Must Go On,” a chill, hip-hop influenced jam he released earlier this month. I absolutely love the versatility of Derek Vincent Smith (that’s the name you would see on Pretty Lights’ drivers license), he flows with what seems like effortless ease between electro, dubstep, hip-hop, and anything else you can think of. If you need proof, check out “Wayfaring Stranger,” his country collaboration with LeAnn Rimes and Dr. Ralph Stanley for the RE:GENERATION project. He’s a true artist, and if you’re still on the fence about it, check out this piece he released with the video:

“…the creation of this track and video is also an artistic explanation as to why I chose the name “Pretty Lights” for my musical project. It embodies the essence of the artistic eye and the idea that almost any moment, anywhere, can be a moment of inspiration and beauty.”

Check out the video below, and go download the track for free via Pretty Lights’ website!
