In the Meantime, there are 2 new songs to download. "The Road to Punalu'u" , and a nice, slow Hawaiian style one named "Koko Sufu", which marks my debut at playing Hawaiian lap steel....That's a tough instrument to play...I muddled through. :o For the other tracks on the record, I've managed to persuade Gary Brandin, from the Blue Hawaiians to play. He's an AMAZING steel player, in case you've never heard the Blue Hawaiians, I HIGHLY recommend their "SWAY" album, as well as a record he did with his son called The Vanduras. "Sway" is one of my absolute favorite surf record, bar none. Anyway, once I have all the tracks finished he'll be doing his thing on a number of tracks. Check out the new tracks at http://www.tiiyakiorchestra.com Aloha

My faves are 'exotique' and 'The Road to Punalu'u' Did you try to add Birdcalls on 'exotique'? I could imagine that this could sound fantastic. I watch out for the album!

T tikiyaki Tiki Socialite The Exotic Port of REDONDO BEACH, CA Joined: May 18, 2004 Posts: 2725	T tikiyaki Posted posted on Tue, Mar 27, 2007 6:56 PM mahalo lemonsqueezer.... "Exotique" was the second song I did for this record ( "Mai tais on the Moon" was the first) and was recorded a few years ago, before there ever was an intent to release anything. Now that I've committed myself to releasing an actual record, the more recent stuff has become more elaborate, production-wise. "Crossing Kileua" pretty much raised the bar on how the songs should sound, so, things like birdcalls and jungle sounds will be added to some of the older tracks as I get closer to finishing everything. Also, as I mentioned earlier, once I get the Lap steel on these tracks (some, not all) it will go to another level. That being said, I love the recordings as they are, but I know I will juice them up before the CD release, so that everything sounds as good as possible.

First off...thanx to everyone from here who downloaded songs from http://www.tikiyakiorchestra.com !!! I hope you're diggin' the tunes, and they're accompanying your Mai tai well :) Haven't posted any new songs as of late, but there IS news.... TC's own Brad Parker aka Tiki Shark is bestowing his artistic genius to the The Tikiyaki Orchestra CD.... He's doing the cover art, and so far it looks great !!! This is very exciting having a great artist like Brad giving visual life, and Big Island inspired art to the music. In case you haven't already see his stuff...go to http://www.tikishark.com and see his work...Great stuff!!! Also...gary Brandin from the Blue Hawaiians laid down some amazing Hawaian Steel guitar on 3 tracks (maybe more, if time permits) and took it to a whole nother level... Very Exciting stuff...the record is almost complete, and I'm pushing for a realease by End of June / July. Also, the Drink Coasters will be included in the CD packaging, as well as a drink umbrella in the front spine of the CD case...making for a nifty package. This will be limited to the first pressing of 1000. These Coasters will also be showing up in Goody bags at various Tiki Events around the county and abroad, so look for them at the events.... Aloha for now. Jim Tikiyaki Orchestra [ Edited by: tikiyaki 2007-05-17 16:15 ]

I wish they would sing less and go back to this instrumental style...they are SOOO good at it. "The Last Days of Summer" from that record is definitely Audio Heroin.

TSA Tiki Shark Art Member Joined: Aug 31, 2006 Posts: 3978	TSA Tiki Shark Art Posted posted on Sun, Jun 10, 2007 12:18 PM Yes, down load vs CD. Liner notes or no liner notes? I just got my VooDoo II CD. And I gotta say I loved seeing the liner notes and photos of Robert in the studio. Of course, I then downloaded it to my I pod, and put the CD away. It's like back up storage I guess, with all my other CDs. I noticed Robert's CD didn't have the cool wrap around art like we did. I always think of a CD still as a small Album. Now, it's a cover art by SHAG, so that's awesome! If I only downloaded, and then my hard drive crashed, and I wasn't smart enough to back it up, very likely, I'd loose all my music! Yikes! Maybe CD's are for lazy people like me who don't back up enough? Well, CD or no, This Tikiyaki album is kicking!
