About P18

This truly explosive mix of real Cuban music, beats, and samples is the brainchild of Tom Darnal, the former keyboard player of Mano Negra, who spent three years in Cuba working on the project, then returned to Paris and tweaked it all with DJ Sree. It was certainly worth the effort, knocking Cuban music quite definitely into the modern electronic age. Hip-hop and drum & bass sit perfectly next to son, chants, and drumming, and the rhythmically angular piano lines of Cuban jazz make sense over programmed beats.
