Nat writes: > Fear of the floodgates opening has motivated my decision to never buy any > Christmas records no matter how inviting. Oh, Christmas music has its moments. Probably a bit on the obscure side, but two masterpieces come to mind: Morgan Fisher's "Hybrid Kids" project X-Mas album; and Culturcide's own special version of "White Christmas", titled "Depressed Christmas" and going like this ...I'm having a depressed Christmas, just like the one I had last year... Then there's "Santa Claus was my Lover" sung to the music of Michael Jackson's "Billy Jean". Culturcide are a bit like Negativland but with no shame. A must hear for anyone with a good warped sense of humour. They voice over the original music with their own special lyrics. Looks to be serious copyright violations but then that's the intent... Is it exotic or is it just strange? Damned if I know but it sure is entertaining!

I always thought the sunglasses were part of the image but... I too have only two of his records, one "before" and one "after" the image transformation and also feel this is enough! I still can't get a good grip on the style though. Should I assume the German equivalent of "country" would be those nasty Bavarian beer drinking - accordian playing (I know how fond you are of this instrument and I surely understand why!) polka records? I say this only to try to differentiate it from what I see as the North American equivalent of "Volksmusik" being the sort of recordings you would find on the Folkways label, ie. traditional songs, often worksongs, etc.. Here there is some overlap as the way I see it, this is where "Country" music originated before it transformed itself into the glitter of Nashville and to what has more recently become a fusion with mainstream rock and as a result a much broader acceptance and making it even less interesting than ever. I realize it is hard to make any direct comparison as there are cultural, political and historical differences that complicate things but with Heino its that deep "Elvis like" voice that always throws me. That may all mean that the North American equal to Schlager could rest with Tom Jones, Engelbert Humperdinck and their likes...

Yes, one of the fascinating things about listening to all kind of music from around the world is to help understand the musical inspirations and adaptations. A prime example is the connecton between Polynesian music and the way Martn Denny was both inspired by it and how elements of it were uniquely interpreted in hs own music. > Question is: where did Tiki and his tribe come from in the first > place, as they were not Peruvian natives and don't seem to fit into the > Southamerican folkscheme.

I wonder if there is any clue in the music? I don't relate Vikings to music but someone who knows a bit about South American music may make some connection. Polynesia was laregely colonized by the French but much later of course. Is Tiki the image you often see associated with Polynesia of the long face on a wooden mask? Of course masks form a big part of Peruvian culture so there may be something to this. I need to brush up a bit on my history to make any further guesses. By the way, I assume by your relationshp with Andres Dorau that you have some close ties with Motor music. Do you know why their recordings so damened hard to find in North America? Some of the "Get Easy" series seem to be available though I've not yet found them. As for Andreas Dorau, no luck at all. It's strange because Motor is a division of Polygram and smaller obscure labels from Germany like Crippled Dick Hot Wax are easily available here and at very good prices. Any North AMerican suppliers you know of so I can send my local record store in their directon?

When I lived in Los Angeles, the radio station KROQ put out"We've Got your Yule Logs Hangin' " and sold it in L.A. for a slightly over a dollar for charity. One of the highlights is William Shatner's deadly serious reciting of a Christmas carol (Good King Wenceslas, I think) Also, there was/is? a show run by Tom Nixon called "The Nixon Tapes" (mentioning this show by name was always fun, if you wanted to see who disliked President Nixon). In his Christmas show, he played a wonderul mix of Jazz, R&B and C&W, however, I rather like the Dominican Mummers parade. I played this tape at a company Christmas party in L.A. and Barbara Streisand's Christmas Album got put in rather hastily for the second year in a row. So I moved. Brian Phillips P.S. More of "Shaft's Big Score"(my recent score of vinyl that did not in anyway hinder Jessica Cameron's Florida heist) to-night.

I just want to say that I have only recently "discovered" Martin Denny's music. I guess I fit into the younger crowd that Moritz mentioned. I am truly grateful for the art that Mr. Denny has been so gracious to bring to us, leading the way for possibly another revolution in music, like the early days hi-fi, with a twenty and thirty-something crowd that has grown tired of all the sounds that rock and roll have wrought. The exciting, exotic sounds give me a wonderful place to escape to, where I can dream peacefully, and feel a connection to a simpler, more tribal existence. Happy Birthday Martin Denny!

Hello- I joined the list fairly recently, so I'm not sure this qualifies as Exotica--it may be closer to what's refered to in Europe as Easy Listening--but it's a fabulous proof of the genre's health, and it wakes me up every morning. I'm refering to music on the Drive In label out of Amsterdam. I don't know much about the label, but it seems to be run by 2 guys, Gerry Arling and Richard Cameron, who also appear to write and produce just about everything under various band names. On Popcorn's _Stereo Showcase_ they collaborate with a certain Eddy de Clerq for maximum exoticability: organ, vibes, marimbas, Latinoid beats, disco, you name it, it's there. Song titles include "Bla Bla Cha Cha", Ola Chico!", and "Funk Cha". On their own Arling & Cameron's _All In_, there are titles in French, German, and English. A new compilation, _The Best of Easy Tune_, is sensational. Any info on these guys would be more than appreciated.

Add to these the other already available CDs - "Filmmusik" and "Easy loungin'. Twenty easy listening classics" - and you've got yourself a real nice Peter Thomas colection! Peter Thomas, the German John Barry? Peter Thomas belongs to the best film music composers, up there with John Barry and Ennio Morricone. The British music press calls him the German John Barry, because of his outspoken talent for writing big, action-packed spy music. He has many many more talents though, like unbridled versatility, and an unconventional, truly wild musical mastermind. Some of his so-called easy listening, as featured on the "Easy loungin'" CD for exemple, is so dangerous it's light years away from easy! Listen to these audio fragments, and you'll also discover his talent for witty musical humour in "Pardon Me Mrs. Carmen", and his use of unearthly special effects as in "Outside Atmosphere" 1998: the year of Peter Thomas!!

I got the vinyl of these releases from Bungalow when they came out. I've been playing them ever since. His sense of orchestration is truly bizzare, huge brass section swirling with electronics. It sounds great over a big system. I just picked up the new double LP out of the UK by Global Goon. (Global Goon recently did a great remix of the Gentle People) The Lp has a few fun yet mellow Moogy tracks on it. But I was a little disapointed the overal sound was much less produced, more bedroom studio sounding than the Gentle People remix. I looked for the product music CD on Honest Abe at Other Music but they were unfortunately out.

One record I would recommend is Bite Hard library music from the British De Wolfe music house on BBE records out of London. There is some really crazy and great sounding pieces from the early '70s. car chase, funky, hard rocking and moody ambiences.

It's by the Yokohama Knights (a 1960s Japanese cabaret band) and it's really clever as it mixes the two songs together, not like a medley (you know, play one and then goes into the other), quite amazing. I also have another along the same lines that melds Classical Gas and Scarborough Fair! It's by the Alan Copeland Singers. Anyone else have any odd musical meldings like this?

Robbie here! Er, well good question! Chris comes from a huge family of Dedricks, four of whom made up the Free Design. As to his background and inspiration, I'm still a little cloudy on that. Doug Frisby is doing an interview with him which will form a large part of the liner notes for the upcoming "Kites Are Fun" compilation on Varese (out in July) and this should fill in some of the gaps. You might also want to bookmark this page: http://www.kcrw.com/g/nice.html As David Ponak recently interviewed Chris Dedrick on KCRW for his "Nice Age" show and I've been told this interview will shortly be available for download from their site. And of course you should check out Chris' own website! He's more into writing (award winning) TV/film music these days but he does still sing, mainly with the Star Scape Singers an a cappella group who needless to say feature a large number of Dedricks in their line up!). Information about his current activities can be found at: http://www.inforamp.net/~cdedrick/ I myself have spoken to Chris on the phone (he's based in Ontario) and I'm still hoping to interview him for the Spaced Out site - just as soon as I can find the time to put the finishing touches to my questions... >These are some of the most warped out lyrics EVER. . . They are jaw droppingly bizarre aren't they! And what about that "poem" on the sleeve of Stars/Time?! > "I'm a Yogi," with its electric sitar Courtesy of Vinnie Bell of course. >Is this what happens when Enoch Light stays up all night listening >to _Sgt. Pepper_ and says to himself, "dammit, why should that >George Martin have all the fun? I can do this!" I guess that's a part of it but I have yet to discover exactly how Light was introduced to the Dedricks. Their's is such a sunny west coast sound it's strange to think of these LPs being recorded in NYC... Anyway, more when I have it!
