          KIWINI VAITAI

          Independently Bizarre

          Reggae, Jawaiian

          Lost Coast

          Kiwini Vaitai has Island and Tongan roots, so he infuses Polynesian flavors and Jawaiian rhythms here.

          He's blessed with a keen wit and a command of lyrics, so his originals have the heady appeal of kava. The tempos are clearly spot-on for the young in party mode.

          Overview: With tutelage and shaping from Laga Savea (producer) and Wendel Ching (engineer), and blessings from Konishiki (and the Lost Coast team), Vaitai (rhymes with mai tai) packs a punch in both upbeat ("You Left Me") and ballad stance ("Why Do We"), which explains his soaring position on local sales charts.

          While the throbbing heartbeat pace is prevalent, Vaitai offers variations — check out "Don't Play," "You Will Be Mine," "Pina Colada." Liner lyrics affirm his savvy.
