L.E.S. Artistes – Santigold

I might be late to the party, but I just recently heard L.E.S. Artistes by Santigold on Pandora.  It sounded very familiar, so I’m not sure if I’d heard it somewhere else.  Anyway, I love the way her voice mixes with those little electronic Oh, Ooh’s.  Very cool song.  I’m going with New Wave, Electronic [...]
