Ha ha! I knew it! :)

good man!

(I have my own exotica girl at home...)

You must have a lot of classical training? So do I! (bassist...orange county symphony)

It's evident in your music. This is something the tiki scene needs more of!

I often tell people I really feel the roots of exotica can be found in classical music...from Rimsky-Korsakov "sheherazade" to Debussy "prelude to an afternoon of a faun" and even some of the beautiful pieces by bernstein "on the waterfront" to the psuedo crime-jazz of Copland " "music for a great city" "Connotations" and "inscape", the symphonies of Malcolm Arnold, William grant Still, etc also have some moments that feel like "exotica"...man, it's all there! Glad to see you doing what you do!
