Santigold

Wow! What a suprise. This band really has something to offer any party. I am of course referring to Santigold. Their massive bass lines combined with rhythms from among other things dancehall, ragga and rockers reggae simply make me dance spontaneously. The lead singer has a pure and clear voice and her backup choir are just lovely on stage. They posess kind of a robotic and impersonal style that according to me functions as a perfect counterweight to the very visible dynamic of the rest of the band. The only thing I have to complain about a little is the absence of intimacy in the mixing of the sound by the sound technician. If it had been up to me, this band would not have wound up on a stage with so much natural reverb. The big hollow sound makes the place feel a bit empty. This music is best served in a small, sweaty and dark venue. Even so, the band itself gave a helluva show, wich left me wanting more.
