Fink- 'Sort of Revolution' (Ninja Tune)
It seems that Brighton’s Fin Greenall aka Fink, is a songwriter in demand. He recently worked with John Legend on his ‘Evolver’ album, and being the ‘Legend’ he is, John returns the favour by co-writing two songs on Fink’s latest offering ‘Sort of Revolution’. Fink produced, mixed and mastered his third album himself and it proves to be a fine showcase for his talents.
Fink collaborates with John Legend again to potent effect on ‘Maker’, which manages to sound both soulful yet slightly menacing at the same time, particularly when Legend’s powerful vocals lend weight to the chorus.
The dark undercurrents of ‘Maker’ are cleansed with the last number, a beautiful rendition of Jeff Barry’s 70s classic “walking in the sun”. However, while the cover is a nice closer, its Fink’s own low-key indie-folk which makes an indelible impression.
