You can find lots of information on them in the Tiki Music forum and a Google search. Also check this link for more information on exotica music. Please understand that most people here on TC, myself included, are very interested in celebrating and preserving classic tiki culture and the ways we can apply it to the modern tiki/Polynesian pop of today.
