KC Lights Essentials

The best big-tent dance music often looks backward and forward at the same time. Since the mid-2010s, the Scottish DJ KC Lights, a.k.a. Kerr Slaven, has expertly balanced those opposing impulses. With early tracks like 2015’s “No No No”, he channelled ’90s house and 2000s garage into timeless barnstormers, and he’s continued to put a contemporary spin on classic sounds on cuts like 2016’s “Daylight”. He’s a versatile purveyor of vibes, too: While peak-time anthems like 2020’s “Girl” deliver chunky tech-house thrills, the lilting topline of 2021’s “Cold Light” proves him equally adept at pop hooks.
