Just got word from Fluid Floyd of Don Tiki fame that my composition “Rendezvous in Okonkuluku” will be one of 20 tracks featured on Hawaiian Airlines’ Exotica Sky Lounge in-flight radio show. A clip of the tune, which is the title track on WAITIKI’s second album, can be found here or at the iTunes Music Store.

Track personnel are:

• Tim Mayer, flute & baritone sax
• Brian O’Neill, vibraphone, udu, & reco-reco
• Helen Liu, violin & sleigh bells
• Mikey Connors, drums
• Me on bass

Bonus points if you can name the composer, work, and movements that the tune quotes. Hint: the composer in question lived from 1860-1911.

If you like the idea of an Exotica radio show on a commercial airliner, drop Fluid Floyd a line via the coconut wireless: taboorecords [at] yahoo [dot] com.

Thanks Floyd!
