His Dunmer master's laundry, if he knows what's good for him.

Re: Cymande - Cymnade (1972)
After a period of obscurity, Cymande's music was rediscovered in the 1980s and 1990s.
Some of their songs were deconstructed and used as breakbeats by early hip-hop DJs Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash.
The British rare groove scene of the 1980s was openly influenced by Cymande.
By the late 1980s they were being sampled regularly by rap artists, starting with De La Soul on the song "Change in Speak" from their 3 Feet High and Rising album, plus EPMD, The KLF, MC Solaar, Heavy D, and many others.
An unauthorized sample of "Dove" by The Fugees resulted in a lucrative copyright infringement settlement for Scipio and Patterson.
Additional recognition arrived in 1994 when Spike Lee used the Cymande song "Bra" in his film Crooklyn; Lee used the same song in his 2002 film 25th Hour

We could do some more Sheffield hip-hop if you'd prefer.

This is the very definition of groovy.

Only 10 minutes? That, nowhere long enough!

I like the spooky rattlesnake percussion sound.

Excellent afro-jazz-funk melody.
