Martin Denny - Exotica III (LP) (Sky Blue Vinyl)

Shipping 11/29/2025

Slip into the incandescent twilight of tiki’s golden age. Exotica III finds Martin Denny at his most shimmering and transportive — twelve tracks of tropical mirage music that drift like warm trade winds across your living room. Bird calls flutter, vibraphones glisten, and Denny’s small army of percussionists turn bamboo, wood, skin, and shell into a whole other world.

Originally released in 1959 at the height of the Polynesian Pop era, Exotica III stands as one of Denny’s deepest, most hypnotic sets — lush, mysterious, and endlessly replayable. This limited Sky Blue vinyl edition feels like it was dipped directly in Pacific dusk. A perfect soundtrack for slow nights, quiet rituals, and any room you want to feel like a hidden lagoon.

Light a candle, pour something tropical, and let Denny guide you somewhere far from the mainland.

Original Release Date: 1959
