    This title 'In the Castle of my Skin' is derived from a line in a Derek Walcott poem which was used as the title of a novel by George Lamming.

    The Smile brought me here.
    As a Radiohead fan, I naturally became a fan of The Smile as well after Thom York and Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead formed a new band called The Smile and included Tom Skinner (one of the drummers from Sons Of Kemet) on the drums. Of course I had to now look up Sons Of Kemet because, living in the US, I have never heard of them before.
    Long story short, several degrees of separation later...... here I am checking out Sons Of Kemet, and I must say....
    I like it a lot.
    Always been a fan of Contemporary Jazz (like Miles Davis, Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Count Basie, ...etc)
    but Sons of Kemet are a different brand of Jazz, a brand that I am now definitely have to get more into.

      This does NOT sound like Cumbia music. lololol. Cumbia has accordions and vocals and usually a slower beat and it swings way more than this. Sons of Kemet are a Jazz group.
