006. BRIGHT LIGHTS - the art of the cold DM, warehouse party catharses, and Hardwell is a pretty cool dude

This week’s ATN features the singer / songwriter / all-around musical force, Bright Lights, a voice you’ve heard on Porter Robinson’s “Language” and a number of other dance floor jewels, in addition to her songwriting for artists including Britney Spears, Usher, and Justin Bieber.

We reminisce on the Myspace music days and how she cold DM’d her way into a major label, starting her own label 333 Recordings, why covers are important in dance music, the religious experience of her first warehouse party, how singers and writers are taken for granted in the music industry, the emotional resonance of Language, why dance music lacked anthems in recent years, and Hardwell’s stellar contributions to her new album.
