In due time, LLT... :) Here are some shots of the guest musicians, as promised... Mr. Jimmy Virani, International Theremin Virtuoso. 'nuff said! Mr. Jack Aldrich, the NW's Big Kahuna of the Lap steel/Hawaiian guitar. The sounds that this man came up with. Wonderful. And Mr. Alika Lyman, great-nephew to Arthur, completely steals the show on a few songs. He's WAY ahead of the game with his skills. Needless to say, I think most of you know the likes of Dave "Squid" Cohen & Mark Riddle/Marty Lush, so you know their kissers & their crazy talents. It was fun and a true honor to record with these amazing musicians. More info coming soon~! Cheers Andy/Tiki Joe's Ocean NEW CD COMING AUGUST 7th... [ Edited by: Tiki Joe's Pop 2010-07-21 18:17 ] |

I was ignorant about the Theremin, can't wait to hear it on the CD. I played the trombone back before the Ice Age - a little similar in that there are no "stops" on the slide, you have to adjust pitch as you play |

Mahalo Dawn (very sweet of you), Rum Balls (nice impression!), Mike (great trombone/Theremin analogy- totally agree) & LLT (thanks, mang!) Mike- you can hear Virani's Theremin on the website in the song "HAWAII BLUE." There's a few other song samples there to give you a feel for the entire "Under the Midnight Sun" CD. While on that subject, the website is now fully UPDATED (Thank You Fabulous Web-mistress Von Animous!) with a new bio, logo & the afore mentioned song samples. Check it out! http://www.tikijoesocean.com Here is the final CD cover with text (Art courtesy Mr. Ken Ruzic and text via Dave "Squid" Cohen - thanks fellas!!!) And PRE-SALE for "Under the Midnight Sun" starts TODAY! Cheers! Andy/ Tiki Joe's Ocean |

It was a real treat to find my copy of this CD in the mailbox last night, and I was even more pleased when I popped it into the player... I really dig this album, from the cover art to the rich instrumental play and fast-paced rhythm in every track. Each contributing element comes through with great depth and crystal clarity. Especially love the other worldliness of the theremin in "Islands in Orbit", as well as the percussion and lushness (yes, Marty Lush-ness) throughout. Thanks, Andy, for another wonderful composition, finely expressed through a superb ensemble of talented musicians. Tom [ Edited by: TikiTomD 2010-08-07 07:19 ] |

Despite slacking off on ordering, my CD arrived in the mail Saturday :) In a word: "Wow!" Amazing songwriting and playing, and great guests. First listen has been in a less-than-tiki environment (in a minivan doing errands), so tonight I'll listen outside on the Aloha Deck with a rum drink in hand. |

I'd just like to add my voice to the chorus of praise. This is the strongest Tiki Joe CD yet. If you've been hesitating to buy any of these, now would be a good time to jump in ... C'mon in, the water's fine! |

I'm importing this to my iTunes now. I bought all 3 CDs in one shot, because I liked what I heard on both Koop Kooper's Cocktail Nation and Digitiki's Quiet Village. The latest one I had to put in the track names by hand but that's a small price to pay to listen to this music. |

I just want to add my voice to the chorus of praise for "Under The Midnight Sun." I picked up a copy at Tiki Oasis and it's one of those records that immediately made it into heavy rotation. I can listen to it on repeat over and over again. A great record. Next up, I'm going back and getting the Christmas record. kevin |

heylownine- Thanks so much! Happy to hear it's in heavy rotation. The Christmas CD was a platform (Latin music-wise) for the latest one, so I think you'll really enjoy it. Here's a thread from it & thanks again! - Tiki-Tim- Cool!!! So glad you love the album. Honored to be placed next to that awesome Yma album. Your framer did a terrific job- looks stellar! Thanks so much again for your huge support from the start, Tim! & Happy Labor Day - TJO musicians labored just for you! :) Cheers~! |

How awesome! That house is AMAZING but the music is what sold it! Great pairing! I didn't realize how popular you are all over the world! Congrats. The new CD is my favorite so far Andy - it's got a lot of texture and I enjoy the guest musicians as well. The theramin(sp?) is so eary-sounding - I would not have thought to add it to Exotica but it brings out the mystical side of Tiki music. I'm sure glad I got my copy early on - I hear you ran out there for a while! Excellent! "Something, something, something, Dark Side, something, something." [ Edited by: beadtiki 2010-09-12 18:39 ] |
