I like a ton of music, but when I'm looking for a tiki vibe or drawing traditional tiki stuff, I prefer the obvious...Martin Denny, Les Baxter, Esquivel, Robert Drasnin's Voodoo or some good surf music. If I'm drawing more wild jungle stuff I like Strip Records Jungle Exotica albums, and also in the same vein Frolic Diner and Las Vegas Grind. If I'm doing something more surreal or psychedelic, then I go for some late 60s-early 70s soundtrack stuff like Vampyros Lesbos, Schoolgirl Report, Ennio Morricone, Beat at Cennicita. Also inspiring for a tiki mindset are the Music for TV Dinners discs. Also spy music, which often tends to be moody and exotic (I specifically recommend The Thriller Memorandum and the Man from UNCLE soundtrack). Basically anything that is colorful, uplifting and textured.
