Endless Rhythmsnew
It's impossible to fully master the complex richness of Latin rhythms, according to Greg Gonzalez, bass player for the Texas-based Latin dance band Grupo Fantasma. "Latin rhythms are endless, man," Gonzalez said recently via phone from his home in Austin. "You can just become more knowledgeable about Latin rhythms; you can just become more informed; and you can never master them." Grupo Fantasma combines Latin dance music with rock, pop, blues, reggae and, especially, funk.
