DJTG, Have you reviewed Warren Barker's "Far Away Places"?

I might suggest these tracks:

1 ) Malayan Nightbird

5 ) Lotus Land

7 ) Carnivalito (has a bit of Esquivelle-esque "Doo-Doo-Doo-Doo"-ing, not to my taste, but...?)

8 ) Javanese Valley

10 ) Moonflowers (instrumental here, originally sung by Dorothy Lamour in Hope & Crosby's Road to Bali.)

11 ) Petite

12 ) Mountain High, Valley Low

Hard to know exactly what you're seeking -- (was the Johnny Ukulele's "Jungle Song" suggestion close?) -- to me, "Indonesian folk music" is Gamelan, and I've got a good deal of that, but "Jazzy lite-Latin-flavored Exotica" it ain't.

Say, just what are you up to, anyway...?

That once there was a Spot,
Where Blowfish all wore sunglasses,
and Tiki-times were hot..."

Warren Barker's 'Far Away Places': I have it, I love it. I already mentioned 'Javanese Valley', which I'm going to use.

What am I up to? Well, my hope is to bring down the whole of Western Civilisation and plunge the ham-faced, vain and arrogant, self-serving, wasteful, overcrowded and useless, loud, uncouth and boorish, oil-guzzling masses of the over-spending spoiled West (especially Southern California) into a vast wasteland of frenzied, governmentally-unsupported anarchy...through the employment of non-authentic Indonesian music.
