This is unquestionably a dope mix. Put together by the ever-excellent Diplo it’s a catalogue of Santogold’s diverse influences and remixes of her tracks. From 80’s pop heroes The B-52’s to current dupstep don Benga every selection is on point. Standout tracks are the insane Gerri And The Holograms tune, the XXXchange remix of L.E.S. Artistes, featuring Movado, The Mumdance remix of Creator, the Radioclit mix of Get It Up featuring MIA & Gorilla Zoe and the best skit I’ve heard for a while composed of a comic side swipe at Mark Ronson.
