HOME MADE EXOTICA FUNK MP3'S

The thread on exotica recommendations got me thinking about "modern exotica" and that there's not that much of it. Some years back I thought: since a mix between exotica and funk is hard to find, why not try and make/mix some myself? So I made a couple of tracks in the late hours and found it fun to do. The result was pretty strange and I don't know what to think of it although I do like the tracks. I just made loops from Bollywood OST's, percussion, library and exotica records and started to pile those on top and after each other and adding beats to those. Here are two direct links: ivory hunt big water animals Maybe you think it's fun to check out and if some other people tried a similar thing I would be interested in their results too.

Pete's Pond soundtrack music no doubt.
There's a few, mostly British cats doing it, like Bias, Harmonic 33, Danny Breaks, 2ndClass Citizen, The Unheard, 3 Blind Mice, Tiki Two, but yours is pretty nice.
This is fantastic collection from Pritchard & co.
Ha ha! That's what I wanted it to be. Thanks!
That cover looks great. I'll check it out. We had some people in Holland called - I think - Spyfi who did Pete's Pond stuff. Sample based with an Indian singer. And somebody gave me a CD by Tipsy that I liked.
One I really like is Arling & Cameron - "Music for Imaginary Films" with title tunes for non existent series such as Hashy the Hash Dog or something like that.
One soundtrack album I highly recommend that came out on the same label as A&C is CQ by French outfit Mellow. Their early albums are also worth checking for.
CQ is a dope film as well. By Coppala's son, Roman. Excellent exotica vibe ala Diabolik type style.
But was ignored by all when it came out a few years ago.
This one I liked too:
Should have had a bigger audience IMO.
I raise you a Tawny Kitaen... A must see for it's set design, costumes & bizarreness. From the director of Emanuelle.
Um how's that for a thread taking a tangent...
CQ is great! ive seen it like 4 times now. really good 1969 vibe. still wanna check that cd out though...
It was also available on Vinyl... Now I regret not getting that as well.
This is one of Mellow's previous albums. From memory it's a 3 sided vinyl issue.
Same dudes in both groups.
Trivia fact is that one of the members is Ross Harris. The kid who gets taken up to the cockpit in the film Airplane by Leslie Nielsen;s character.
this album is pretty rad
is a killer! Some of the members played in Mr. Bungle as well, right?
Nice tracks, Generique. Digging it. In fact 'Big Water Animals' was a bit Tipsy-ish. Drums are a bit messy at times, though.
Never heard of that CQ flick, looks very interesting.
