Converse x Santogold (and pharrell & that guy from the strokes)

Converse brought Pharrell, Santogold (remember how excited I was about her first video?) and Julian Casablancas (lead singer of The Strokes) together to do a song that I promise you'll be hearing at all the "cool" New York Bronques/TONE-documented, Roxy Cottontail-promoted, weekday parties this summer.

N.E.R.D. - My Drive Thru (ft. Santogold & Julian Casablancas)



*The song just debuted on Converse.com so all you audiophiles can go download it too. :)

Santogold - L.E.S. Artistes

Santogold "L.E.S. Artistes"

Santogold's first video. You'll be hearing more from this girl as her name has been buzzing all over the music blogs since last summer and her debut album drops sometime this month. She's from Brooklyn and in my opinion is one of the most innovative artists coming out of New York at the moment. Produced by Diplo (of M.I.A. fame), Switch and others she's got this synth-electro-punk sound down to a tee.

Here's her myspace. Check out "Creator" and "Shove It"
