Onomatopoeia Exclusive Download: /ˈjedˌīak/ - "Drowning Bird" (Eminem vs. BANKS) & "Falling Horse" Katy Perry vs. BANKS)

Happy Friday! I figured why not share some more exclusives as we end the work week and approach the freedom of the weekend. I got two new remix/mashups to gift you, both featuring music from BANKS. 

First up is “Drowning Bird” which pairs up Eminem’s “Mocking Bird” with one of Jillian’s bigger hits, “Drowning.”  The Soundcloud police said no can do in regards to uploading and sharing of this bad boy but our standby Mixcloud has absolutely no issues with the untouched BANKS intro and let me proceed. For those who grabbed our latest edition of the Onomatopoeia Playlist Series earlier in the week you already got the tune ahead of everyone else as part of that package so good on you.

Next up is “Falling Horse” which finds inspiration via Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse” featuring Juicy J, and “Fall Over” from BANKS.  Pretty happy with how they both turned out, let me know what you think and be sure to download and share via the players, playa’s!

Video: Banks – “Brain” Prod. By Shlohmo

I shared a stream of the sublime “Brain” from L.A. artist Banks back in January, if you recall it featured production from Shlohmo and was pure fire. Today brings an equally captivating video for the song; and while it is rather simple in nature it most certainly is moody and well styled.

Listen: Banks – “Brain” Prod. By Shlohmo

I haven’t shared anything from L.A. artist Banks in a while and this one is a double whammy as Shlohmo handles the production. “Brain” keeps the moody dark tone explored in both artist’s work so this really is a natural collaboration that works well.

Listen: Banks – “Before I Met You”

Continuing with the theme of Valentine’s Day we got a new one from L.A. singer Banks. You might know the voice from her collaboration with Lil Silva on the club joint “Work.” “Before I Met You,”, is a much darker affair representing the heartache side of today’s holiday with its crushingly despairing message to the other half of a failing relationship. A good first single from the artist with some very enjoyable production which hopefully is a key indicator on what we can expect from her in 2013.
