When do Amadou and Mariam come in?

Discipline!
per wiki:
Fripp named the new quartet Discipline, and the band flew to England to rehearse and write. They made their live debut at Moles Club in Bath on April 30, 1981 and went on to tour the UK,<37> supported by The Lounge Lizards.

I like the marimba.  But if you want to hear marimbas really rock out, check out these incredible kids: 

Kunaka

Eleven talented young artists aged 11 to 14 years have been performing joyful marimba music at community events and celebrations from Britannia Community Centre to Bowen Island, the WISE Hall to Whistler, and the Chan Centre to the “Cultch.” Their dynamic style and confident stage presence appeal to audiences of all ages and musical persuasions. Despite their youth, Kunaka play as though they “own” the music, a signature sound inspired by the Shona traditions of Zimbabwe and fused with contemporary rhythms. Mbira master Kurai Mubaiwa and percussion specialist Theo Vincent mentor Kunaka, sharing the beautiful marimba melodies of Southern Africa and encouraging the young musicians to contribute their own musical ideas to a repertoire that’s sure to bring everyone’s dancing shoes out of the closet.

They blew us all away at the recent Vancouver Folk Music Festival!  https://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid494940067/bclid505315769/bctid505292817

Huh? I'm not sure pleasant would be first word I'd have thought of to describe it, but I think it's pleasant in as much as it's not unpleasant.

I hear a bit of the Robert Fripp/Adrian Belew counterpoint going on in the guitars (circa Discipline). Me like.
