“No.4 OTROS TIEMPOS (Deep South 1999) Tumbaito Led by Venezuelan master percusionist William Cumberbache, Tumbaito only released album to date was a mixture of Latin, jazz, urban and folk music, a mix never seen in the UK before. Heavily influenced by Weather Report, this album sounded ten years ahead of its time”
