Default Witch Doctor music

I'm wondering what you folks use for Witch Doctor music.

Currently, I have a playlist from the following:

Amazon.com: Djembe: African Percussions: Music:...Amazon.com: Djembe: African Percussions: Music:...
Amazon.com: Djembe, Vol. 2: Famoudou Konate:...Amazon.com: Djembe, Vol. 2: Famoudou Konate:...
Amazon.com: The Best of Kodo: Music: KodoAmazon.com: The Best of Kodo: Music: Kodo
http://www.portlandtaiko.org/store/index.html

I switched to taiko because I wanted more base than traditional Djembe drums give. The problem with all these, though, is about 1/2 the tracks are unusable, some of the djembe tracks are recorded live and thus have crouds reactions, while Taiko utilizes flutes in some music, which really makes it not fit.

Kodo's CD's are not recorded at the best quality, and come out a lot softer than the others. Too bad, as they have some good stuff. Portland Taiko puts out some VERY nice stuff, and it is recorded very well, giving a nice base, rich sound.

I've been wanting to mix in some chants into the whole mix, but have been having quite a difficult time finding any.
