Santogold’s Debut
Filed Under Album Picks
It has taken me awhile to grasp this debut album by Santogold, Santi White is the unique voice behind this amazing debut album. White draws on so many influences on this album and does a damn good job of mixing it all together into a new unique sound. It is the strong bass rhythms that drive most of the songs that got my interest from the start and the album is solid from the opening track L.E.S. Artistes to Creator (vs. Switch and FreQ Nasty) to Anne. Santi White teams up with old band mate John Hill, together they mix Hip- Hop, Reggae, Indie- Rock, Pop and electronic… And it is just brilliant.
P.S. This was one of the hardest song picks I have ever had to do and I have been doing this for 2+ years.

The whole album is fantastic it has been on constant repeat since I first played it. It is so well rounded, highly recommended.
