Taking influences from their Guyanese and Jamaican roots, the band fused reggae bass lines, Afro-tinged Nyabinghi percussion, psychedelic touches, and American style funk instrumentation into a unique sound they’ve since dubbed as “Nyah-rock.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCymande’s massive influence can be heard in the dozens and dozens of samples taken from their albums over the last four decades, from pioneering DJs like \u003cstrong\u003eDJ Kool Herc\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eGrandmaster Flash\u003c\/strong\u003e, to \u003cstrong\u003eDe La Soul, Masta Ace, King Tee, The Wu-Tang Clan, Gang Starr, The Coup, Sugar Hill Gang, Norman Cook\/Fatboy Slim\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eThe Fugees\u003c\/strong\u003e -- to name a few.
