I'm new to the "tiki" scene, but I've always loved being immersed in polynesian culture. I think the best lounge experience comes with the best music. While searching for tunes for a cocktail party I was hosting, I came across this band called Paris Combo, a lovely French jazz, lounge, bossa nova-like band. Check it out yourself, http://www.pariscombo.com or this other link http://www.ark21.com/eCard/getcard.html . My friends were very pleased with the music of choice. I am looking for other albums that set the mood. I would like to know what everyone thinks about Paris Combo, and also give me some party-hosting tips, thanks!

Still can't get over the guy playing a trumpet into a bowl of water... I was jaw-dropping amazed at how good they were... have since downloaded all their tunes off the web, and today I heard a story about them on The World on NPR... they are top notch and deserve recognition... http://www.pariscombo.com
