16. SANTIGOLD ‘Lights Out’ (2008)

The very first remix I did was for LES SAGES POETES DE LA RUE, a french Hip-hop band on MC Solaar’s label – and then Swiss band LES PETITS BOSS on Arsenal Records in 1995. I thank those guys for putting me on. I still remember the feeling of seeing my name printed on a record cover for the first time. Priceless.

Coming back to this record, I did this Santigold remix last year for a Budweiser commercial in America. Corporate remixing didn’t stop me from meeting and kicking it with the golden lady, thankfully. Little technical note, this is the first track I produced using only my computer. No external tools, no drum machine, no outboard mixing. Who cares.
