		<description><![CDATA[One thing that&#8217;s always been at the forefront of my thoughts, when listening to Les Baxter&#8217;s Le Sacre du Sauvage album or some of the early Denny albums, is how concise yet seemingly mystic the writing and orchestration are. Let&#8217;s start with the big picture first: It is rare to find a track as &#8220;long&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One way to view WAITIKI is that it is an approach to classic exotica that highlights the postmodernist tendencies of the classic exotica era.Original works and recordings by Les Baxter and Martin Denny often exhibit the following characteristics:

Include quotes (harmonic, melodic, or textural) from landmarks of orchestral literature or specific composers’ styles
Rhythms of common Latin [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Exotica just didn’t come out of nowhere. Here is a sampling of what I consider to be tiki non-tiki music:

Maurice Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloe Suite (particularly the second one).
Ravel’s Tombeau et Couperin.
Early arrangements featuring Gabby Pahinui &#8211; such as the tunes &#8220;Ahulili&#8221; and &#8220;Hame Pila&#8221;
Big band arrangements with latin influences (i.e. Juan Tizol’s stuff)

		<description><![CDATA[There are many other alternative versions of &#8220;Taboo&#8221; (made popular by Arthur Lyman’s band and a million others), but one of my favorite arrangements is the one done by contemporary composer OSVALDO GOLIJOV for the KRONOS QUARTET’s album Nuevo. This album also has a fantastic arrangement, also by Golijov, of Esquivel’s &#8220;Miniskirt.&#8221;
