Greetings happy tiki people:

I'm a fairly new but very enthusiastic listener of exotica. I like the "Quiet Village"-type stuff as well as the outer spacey-flavored offerings. I'm looking to build my (so far) quite modest collection, and would welcome any tips on trades, downloads etc that would help me hear some more of this music before I start investing in vinyl. I also have been enraptured by Sem Sinatra's site - any ideas where I can get some more Japanese exotica? Wow.

As for the personal, I'm 31, a bookseller and library school student, with a BA in art history. I love books (favorite authors Douglas Coupland, Haruki Murakami, Evelyn Waugh, PG Wodehouse, others); I'm a Japanophile, shintoist, and lover of art, googie architecture, mid-century modern design, Eichler homes, retro space-age optimism, Asian cinema, spicy food, gin and tonics, bonsai and ikebana, web design...

Glad to be here, and I'll see everyone around the tiki torch.

Skaal,
kittenhead
