Jungle is more along the lines of Les Baxter, could be african, could be south american, could be anything exotic and wild. Tiki seems to be more confined to Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, etc..thought latin music is a connecting thread between the two. Then you have the space sound, which was in vogue around the time of Tiki and Jungle. I guess it could be a separate entity, however as it was used in many movies and TV, I seem to want to put it as an offshoot of Jungle. Esquivel would be an example.
