>somebody that isn't me made a surf thread with a picture of Dick Dale.
Nice.
Only plebs don't understand surf music, unfortunately they never will so there isn't anything we can do for them. They'll just go on listening to shit like Elliot Smith, lil peep, Animal Collective, Grimes, Ween, Swans, and all their other garbage.
Brayden Thompson
you make parents hate it
Jack Moore
that's not a surf song..it's just a tune off a boogie woogie pattern ..
also guitar rock n roll instros arent automatically surf..
Like Link wray's Rumble isn't surf
Mason Perry
Dick Dale did a good cover of Rumble.
Alexander Nguyen
>that's not a surf song
hmm
Aiden Nguyen
& dick dale recorded music under the "hot Rod" style than surf
Surf Music was generally more mellow..it wasn't until pulp fiction came out everyone wanted to play like "misirlou"
Grayson Hughes
I'd stay stick to what these guys did in the 90's it had some pop elements in it.
Just amp the production up to today's standards, drums have to be 808's with a trap snare. Catchy riff and chorus and you've got yourself a semi surf rock hit.
Jacob Rodriguez
gtfo i dont care what wikipedia states + i own that orig physical copy
William Price
What kind of shirt is that? I like it.
Jordan Flores
Looks like Velour
Austin Wood
Thanks. I meant the actual cut of shirt too. I like the way it looks and if Dick Dale wore it then it's cool.

Surf rock is one of the corniest sounding genres I can think of. Awful music.
Landon Adams
Ask /fa/
Levi Perry
Hahahaha, excellent satire post.
Daniel Phillips
But it was a gimmick to begin with
Isaiah Young

Xavier Martin
>He says while listening to Grimes.
Christopher Wilson
Do you have any Dick Dale?
Michael Murphy

Evan Myers
More like SERF Rock, because you've got to be a pleb living in the past to like it!
Thomas Reed

Jeremiah Sanders
Did you just assume my music taste?!
I actually can't even name one Grimes song or even album.
Jayden Sanchez
Autism is off the charts.
Julian Perry
no man no man
Jason Martinez
any time a genre pigeon holes itself to have strict rules it becomes a meme
genres that become traditional wind up only having a tiny group of people that appreciate it
You would have to have some kind of innovative music with it that took the best elements and put them into something new but not use those elements as crutches so they sound corny.
Gabriel Torres
How much did the Dick Dale stuff run you?
Tyler Mitchell
wikipedia is fucking trash
that song is not surf, its a simple I IV V done with heavy orchestration with no characteristics of surf music.

this was probably the last use of surf sounds that was a big hit. Its just a really nice use of the sound and isn't over doing it or trying to overly gimmick it like the way hardcore surfbands like man or astroman, messer chups, etc. do
Joey Santiago of the Pixies is very surfy in his style
But think, you wouldn't be interested in surf at all if it wasn't such a dead, niche realm of music.
Clean, heavy reverbed guitars seem to be taxed to oblivion now in music which sucks because its such a nice sound and the most fun to play with.

how do we make pedal steel with talk box vocals a thing again
Matthew Watson
>no characteristics of surf music
It's really not that different to Wipe Out at all.
Bentley Fisher
Thank you...it's basically just a boogie woogie..
too many people think.. clean guitar = surf for some reason..
anyhow, that's all i wanna spend on the subject..i'm cleaning my 45s
Dylan Martinez
Metal music is surf in disguise
Jaxon Baker
It is?
Henry Johnson
The Mermen are absolutely awesome surf band, I cant believe they got passed over from ever going mainstream

Tyler Barnes
A reallly good brief interview about how Dick Dale started out. Particularly interesting how he helped Leo Fender develop more powerful amps.

Jordan Taylor
Bambi Molesters are bretty good desu

Xavier Perez

Robert Gomez
I encourage everyone itt to checkout The Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet: not strictly just surf but they're super fun and punchy instro-rock:

Alexander White
This too. youtu.be
Albini produced some of the best surf rock ever.
Jordan Cooper
its all about how he mixed the clean guitars and drums. he's a genius about that stuff
Easton Harris
Y'all realize saying "bring back surf" is just like those kids screaming about wanting metal to be mainstream, or jazz to come back. Surf is history, its almost as if I said I wanted to bring baroque back. Musical genres die as tastes change. Just respect the music that did come out of the genre.
Grayson Collins
On this one the guitars are a bit muddier but his amazing drum sound is still in tact. Albini was killing it during this era.
