  • Bio

    LOST IN THE DEEP AMAZON!!! Me? I looked around wildly and realized that I was alone...along and 10,000 miles from home in the depths of the raw primal jungle. I came to film & record the beauties of the rain forest but now realized that I just might never get out. The steaming vegetation completely surrounded me andI was lost. Suddenly I heard a distant shout and my guide came running into the clearing. SAVED! Whew..that was just too close for comfort. Hi, my name is Chuck Jonkey and I havae two passions: adventure travel & music. I've spent years traveling around the world recording beautiful sounds, collecting rare native musical instruments & composing fresh fascinating innovative exotic music. I call it Sonic Safari Music. I have produced over 73 Cds of exotic, adventure music. Romance! Spice up your love life with magnificent mood music. Create an exotic, sensuous, sonic atmosphere for your romantic life. At my Sonic Safari music label you'll find the following styles of music: world, world beat, african, electronic, rock, sci-fi, space, primitive, primal, drum, indian, native american. Music from and inspired by the countries I have visited: India, Peru, Mexico, Java, Bali, China, Senegal, Gambia, Tahiti, Russia, Bolivia, Thailand...and many more. The cut "O Dance With Me" is currently in Usher's movie debut: "In the Mix". It was directed by my good friend Ron Underwood. My music has appeared in lots of films and Tv shows including: JFK, The Doors, Flubber, Beyond Borders, The Mighty Joe Young, Heaven and Earth and others.
