We’ll never forget getting acquainted with NITE PATROL for the first time at his downtown gig alongside Team Discotheque — not only for his talent on the decks and fresh, cyber-inspired attire, but also for a spirit of kindness that radiates. After a deeper dive later that night, it came as no surprise that the future-funk encyclopedia we’d stumbled upon in the local scene describes himself as a “public servant” of sorts, encouraging folks to “focus on the brighter side of darkness,” as noted on his SoundCloud profile.

If you’re looking for a mood that balances the futuristic with the optimistic — or simply a breath of fresh air for a mid-morning boost or nightcap — fans of Daft Punk and similar sounds will find a welcome reboot of positivity in NITE PATROL’s latest track, Brighter Side of Darkness.
