This fast-paced Latin Jazz tune by Finn Peters flows with a free and uplifting vibe, a very strong contrast to the dark Hip Hop and Jazz songs which inspired it's creation. Enjoy the breezy rhythm and vibe of Finn Peters on "Gato" who deliberately composed with three different artists in mind. This Latin tune is named after the great Argentine tenor player Gato Barbieri and borrows the classic piano line from Nas’s “N.Y. State of Mind” which was sampled from Joe Chambers' “Mind Rain”.
The rest of Finn's 2006 LP entitled "Su-Linn" is a great listen of heavenly Jazz sound. Check out "Gato" along with the rest of "Su-Linn" below.
“I’ve been lucky to have had several of the tracks on this brilliant debut upfront and have loved playing
them on the radio – now it’s your turn!” (Gilles Peterson)
