Rastiki, have you checked out some of the good Jawaiian stuff?

There are radio stations in Hawaii that seem to play nothing but. It's got an upbeat Reggae sound (definitely not 70's Reggae, though), but with a good dose of Hawaiian influence. The lyrics are more about hawaiian themes like surfing, girls, hanging on the beach, etc... - Vs. the usual reggae themes - Revolution, oppression, getting stoned, etc...

It's good music, and for me always evokes an excellent island vibe.
