Wiki – “Ben Cullum is a United Kingdom based musician, composer and record producer of Anglo-Burmese background, and the brother of Jamie Cullum. He acquired a music degree in London and worked for a short time as a session bass guitarist. Soon after, he joined a the UK based video game developer, Rare Ltd, and worked for four years as a composer for console games, providing the voice for characters including Falco Lombardi from the Star Fox series. Currently Cullum is working as a songwriter/programmer/producer/musician.
His first single, “Can’t Get Better Than This”, was released in 2005, on the house label DTPM Recordings, and has been remixed by Dab Hands and Ashley Beedle. His music is published by Chrysalis Records, and he is the songwriter of “These Are the Days”, the debut single by his brother Jamie.
Cullum is currently working and touring with The Egg. Although he has been collaborating with various musicians, he has two cuts on Ferry Corsten’s hit album, L.E.F., they are “Beautiful” and “Forever”. Three songs written by Cullum can be found on Kyle Eastwood’s album, Now. He has also recorded bass guitar, electric organ and guitar on three of All Saints tracks.”

Curses! is the haunted alter ego of DROP THE LIME.

All this stuff sounds like Drop The Lime under a spell of jackin’ bass heavy haunted house but in the right mood is that perfectmusicalkindling to your flame. This one is more “housey” in particular than the rest.


Curses! – this is the way

Pretty Lights is giving the people what they want; electro organic cutting-edge party rocking beats that fill venues with energy and emotion, and send dance floors into frenzies.

“Pretty Lights is the musical vision of the ultra-versatile Colorado based producer Derek Vincent Smith, accompanied in the live setting by drummer, Cory Eberhard. Together these two achieve a raw energy rarely reached in the realm of electronic music. At a time when music lovers from almost all subcultures, and genres are finding common ground in the basic form of bangin’ beats, Pretty Lights is giving the people what they want; electro organic cutting-edge party rocking beats that fill venues with energy and emotion, and send dance floors into frenzies. What makes Pretty Lights truly different tho, is that these beats have serious soul. Derek’s latest album, “Filling Up The City Skies” is a two disc, 26 track journey through past, present, and future. He juxtaposes collages of beautiful vintage samples against backdrops of futuristic synthesis and dirty broken beats, creating a sound that can snap your neck while simultaneously shedding your tears. The album has been downloaded over 30,000 times from the Pretty Lights website in the short 3 months since its release, proving that the PL sound is not only getting around, it’s spreading like a virus. “
