SXSW 2012 Notes

Santigold kickin’ it at Spin Live at Stubb’s this afternoon, to a full house — enthusiastic crowd, but she’s a little subdued for her dance-y jams… A set full of hits, she did turn it up by bringing fans up on the stage. What separates her from other young soul/r&b-infused electropop? I guess her image and some luck. Regardless, shit’s getting crazy up there — ass wigglin’, lots of outfit-changing and horse suits (?) permeate through the heavy bass.
