Her talent and eclectic abilities were obvious, she just needed something to click. “She had been working on a collection of tracks and there was this one Dutch house-sounding one that was just absolutely insane,” remembers Greene of the song that’d become Banks’ breakout. “The funny thing is that even then, I told the label it could become a really iconic track with the right rapper on top of it,” Martens says. “But of course I didn’t know anybody in that scene at the time -- and ‘Float My Boat’ did so well as an instrumental, so nothing really came of that idea. Until one day a girl hears the track, writes a vocal over it, and voilà: ‘212’ was born.”
