Money's Mark's "Silly Putty" Featured in New Reebok Spot
Mark Ramos Nishita aka Money Mark is a musician, composer and producer who is most noted for his collaborations with the Beastie Boys. His first album, the critically applauded "Mark's Keyboard Repair" (1995), was made up of keyboard driven pop-funk songs recorded at demo quality. It was followed up by his second full-length, "Push the Button" in 1998.
"Push the Button" eclectic and forward thinking, combines aspects of Rock and Pop with Soul, Funk and Hip-Hop. It contains seminal tracks such as “Hand In Your Head” and the eponymous “Push the Button”, which catapulted Mark to the top of the British Pop Charts, and cemented his status as a prominent and cutting edge solo artist in the US. His 2001 follow up "Change is Coming" was critically acclaimed; a top 10 record for critics and collectors alike.
His most notable contribution to popular music thus far might be the famous keyboard phrase that opens and underpins "Where It's At" from Beck's 1996 album, Odelay.
In September 2006 Money Mark signed to Jack Johnson's Brushfire Records label. Brand New By Tomorrow, his first album in 6 years, was released in February 2007 to the critical acclaim that accompanies all of Mark’s solo endeavors.
Most recently, Mark composed the score to the feature documentary Beautiful Losers. He continues to produce, remix, compose for film, TV, and video games, collaborate and co-write with artists as diverse as Yoko Ono and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and to tour as a solo artist, as well as with the Beastie Boys.
Hello Money Mark, A starfish's lifelong hallucinations of gelatin pools and of actuaries floating upon the foam and reciprocal ohm. I sense wild vapors of sweet champagne in your larynx. Your eyes are like spheres of crystal water filled with shimmering dreams. Your sweet voice is like the application of aloe vera upon a sunburnt back. Cities crumble, skies ignite spontaneously in your presence. The stickers hugging the fruit smell better than the perfume of ambergris. In your absence I am forced into finding other forms of amusement while thinking about you. Your beauty is equal to the smoothness of a polished gem. How beautiful is the snowshine in your eyes, so directly current from the static in your mind. Transistors bridge where your vanity would never go. You breath as delicately as vapors flowing towards an attractive flame. As the bliss slowly rises in my incandescent eluxulator, your mere presence has a euphoric effect upon me. The elves that play in the toasters wash their drum sticks in honey and sing strikingly colored anthems in perfect harmonious pleasure.
I'm hearing your music for the first time today (still making it through Push The Button as I type this) and holy hell man this is good stuff. Glad I found you guys
