Seriously. I think we're actually all on the same page here. I think Sven put it the most eloquently, the true, classic definition of tiki music is exotica. And I think Randy put it the most succinctly that what he might play in his own tiki bar should be considered 'Tiki music and beyond'. I may be contradicting myself from previous posts now, but perhaps that's why I never use the word tiki in describing The Hula Girls. The themeology is weighted heavily in tiki, but it isn't true 'tiki' music per say. That's why I've latched onto describing it as 'Hulabilly' (patent pending, 2010). Aloha. Very interesting thread, by the way. |
