Change is Coming
	Home Articles Photos Bio

Money Mark is back in his groove with his new effort stating, in the title, that change is coming. Previously this keyboard guru Mark Ramos Nashita has put the fire in Beck�s �Where It�s At� and helped keep the heads bobbing for the Beastie Boys with his funk laden atmospheric instrumentals. Now Mark is back showing the world he can fill an album with twelve tracks that couldn�t make Martha Stuart sit still. From funky 60�s bass lines to R&B with a touch of Latin, this album can please the most cynical of listeners.

While certain tracks such as �Information Contraband� hit you with immense synthesizers and effects, you will want to bob your head and let the disk play on where you will come across �Another Day to Love You�, a clean mambo-ish groove to take your thoughts to a tropical isle of dance. His choice of instrumentation has always given his songs the quality that feels so authentically influenced. He modified an old Tesco guitar and turned it into a Cuban treis which he plays in this track.

Mark funks us to the next step while taking us back to that part of the 60s we all wish we were a part of. The groove is here and prepared to stay while Money Mark still has any say in what music he creates. In Mark�s Push The Button album he was forced to compromise what he wanted with what the record company wanted, which forced something that didn�t feel as natural as this album. Change is Coming combines his experience as an artist with his own unaltered ideas to create something of great substance and possibly great influence on the scene.
