Aside from The Schimitars , Dick Dale, The Original Surfaris, etc. and the occasional random track , what are some middle eastern / Spanish heavy inspired Surf tracks and bands?
I’ve always thought the middle eastern / Spanish style surf was the “ true” surf sound (though I know some will undoubtedly disagree) or at least the cooler sounding of the genre …
thanks for the input and recommendations!

Search wherever you get your music for The Madeira. One of the very top surf bands of the last dozen years. Middle Eastern influence is fundamental to their style.

Excellent choices!
Malagueña and Latinia are 2 of the greatest Surf tracks of all time… Malagueña being just as important as Miserlou in my own opinion
