Greetings from a new subscriber:

Been lurking for a bit trying to get the feel of the list and having
the usual sweaty newbie anxiety about being out of my league and asking
totally embarassing questions...  I'm quite new to the exotica/lounge
genre, digging it, wanting more, but not having clue what to be looking
for.  I'm hoping you all can make some suggestions as to what I might
try and seek out...  So far, I prefer (and I'm not even sure what
terminology to use here) 50's/early 60's pop jazz that really swings,
prefer instrumentals to vocals - kinda swingy and swanky beatnik sort
of stuff.  The kind of stuff that I remember from old Popeye cartoon
episodes when they were in beatnik clubs, everybody was saying things
like "square" and "daddy-o" and the background music was really
swingin.  I've also been wearing out the tracks "Something For Cat" and
"Loose Caboose" from Mancini's Breakfast at Tiffany's soundtrack, so
maybe that lets you in on what kind of a taste-space I'm in.  I also
like Euro (French and Italian) stuff same type/same era, as well as
60's Euro film music, and Latin Jazz/Bossa stuff.  Bongos are good.
I'm also liking Les Baxter, Xavier Cugat, JG Esquivel, well, I could go
on.

Suggestions from all comers welcome.  Would love to get some more Bob
Thompson stuff...  Does anyone know what's available from Rubin
Mitchell?  I'm really grooving on his version of "Mas Que Nada" from
the Ultra-Lounge series, but having a devil of a time finding out what
else he did.

This may seem like an odd request - but does anyone know where I could
find out a complete listing of all the music used in the "Ren and
Stimpy" cartoon series?  I know they used a lot of Raymond Scott as
well as classical, but there is also some great pop jazz stuff that I
would like to know more about - who did it, what it is, that sort of
thing.

Hoping to graduate up to being a bit more sophisticated in my knowledge
soon,
Glad to be here,
the swingin hillbilly kitten

Wow, Courtney, you just described the music I most enjoy.  That being the
case I'll recommend something I just recently got into -- music from the
Japanimation cartoon 'Cowboy Bebop.'

I would guess too that you would probably dig most stuff labeled as 'now
sound' (regardless of the fact that this list can go on forever about what
exactly now sound is).  And you'll probably enjoy lots of the Easy Tempo
compilations, Music for TV Dinners, and so on.  Finally, check out Crippled
Dick Hot Wax at http://www.crippled.com/ and Dusty Groove records at
http://www.dustygroove.com.

But nothing will help you as much as just lurking this list and gobbling up
all of the musical references.  These people are walking encyclopedias when
it comes to music.

Subject: (exotica) Music for TV Dinners

I have the first Music for TV Dinners CD and I have done some searches on the
artists on Yahoo, CD Now, and Amazon and haven't turned anything up.  There
are a few songs I have heard on TV that should be on that CD that weren't
(there are also a couple on the CD that really shouldn't be).

Any other CD's with that type of music?

thanks
Jeff

Tons.

If you don't have the second volume, you might want to check that out. It's
groovier. I liked it more. Both of the recent Cinemaphonic compilations
("Electro Soul" and "Soul Punch") are in the same vein and recommended.

I'm needing some assistance from anyone willing to share ideas, images, and
sites of reference.

I want to make my boyfriend a valentines card with an image of a romantic
record cover.  Anyone have something I could use or know somewhere I can
grab something like that?  It has to be exceptional because he is.

Would love to hear your ideas.

Aloha,
Tiki Kiliki

Subject: (exotica) Zorn's Gift...

Hi,

Some Exotica news for Brits or those who may be visiting the UK in late
March û John Zorn is performing The Gift at The Barbican on March 25.
The BarbicanÆs own publicity pamphlet reads:
John Zorn has come to define the musical promiscuity of downtown New
YorkÆs rock, jazz and improv scenes. An astonishingly gifted hard bop
soloist, he has fronted a baffling range of projects over the years,
from thrash metal quartets to Bacharach tributes; from Klezmer bands to
classical chamber compositions based on games. Here he switches from the
alto sax to piano and theremin for a world premiere of his new project
æThe GiftÆ, melding surf-rock, lounge jazz and worldbeat exotica. ZornÆs
band features a host of New York luminaries including trumpeter Dave
Douglas, guitarist Marc Ribot, keyboardist Jamie Saft, drummer Joey
Baron and percussionist Roberto Rodriguez.

Ticket prices range between 10 û 20 Pounds. You can book online at:
www.barbican.org.uk

æThe GiftÆ is a pretty good album, and IÆm looking forward to hearing it
performed live. Hm, nowà what to wear?

Rock Wilson
