Hello and welcome to losdrigos, roytheodd, raylinds, Xavier_irvine, and MayTheFuzzBeWithYou! Very glad to have you as new members (or as old lurkers making yourselves known).
MayTheFuzz - What a wonderful introductory note. Great taste in music, great equipment, appropriate hobby and beneficial occupation, all in all, you seem like a nice fellow, notwithstanding the shout-out to Cthulhu  . I can definitely hear some surf influence in your guitar playing on TENTACULOVE. The Great Old Ones are pleased, but will be more pleased if you do a straight-up surf album.
Xavier - I've just spent a wonderful hour listening to Birdcage's album Wave Machine. You kind of slipped the bandcamp link in like an afterthought and the band name Birdcage doesn't exactly have a surfy vibe, but WOW, that is a POWERFUL album! I just bought it and I look forward to listening to it a lot more. Great work!

Thank you Danny, Noel and SilverFlash!
Well, Tentacula already started as my "solo" project - to make room for all my Surf-inspired tunes! But as you probably all know... with multiple individuals you get multiple influences and honestly with the little direction I gave - I'm very pleased with the results! Album#2 will get even darker and you'll hear way more Surf & Italo-Western sounds!
Also we can only initiate those rituals the way we sound right now!  Cthulhu needs some chants...
But hey, just yesterday I finally dared to update my Laptop and only to get the latest Garageband version! from 6.05. to 10.something... was quite something! So now I got some virtual drummers!
So give me a fortnight to figure everything out - and you'll get my first Surf-single/album soon!

OK OK! Loving this, Xavier. Snake Island is way fun. I first joined the site feeling like I was a lone eagle loving this sound and lo and behold, lots of great music from like minds of various persuasions. Constant new discoveries.

Hello, my name is Stu. I found this forum looking for info on reverb pans. I built a 6G15 recently and thought about trying some other pans in it (has a MOD pan now). After reading a couple of threads I'm more confused than ever.

How rude of me, I just realized this topic exists !
So, I'm Jay Poisön, I'm from France, fell in love with surf music in my teens and recently released my first surf album. I come from metal / punk so it's uncharted territory for me but I'm having a blast.
I've been reading sg101 for years but never shared anything, so I figured it was time now that I'm playing proper surf music !

Hi, call me Mr B or Bent. I’m a bass player by nature, but lover of all things surf. Picked up an inexpensive Jazzmaster to help learn guitar by playing surf music!

Hello all!
I'm a new member and 1st time post-er. Been playing guitar since I was in my mid teens and am now in my late 50s. Loads of gigs and recording experience in all manner of genres, been into surf music since childhood and have recently fallen in love with the genre all over again.
I've been noodling around with playing tunes in a surf/spy style and have started recording some of my efforts.I don't have a particularly authentic surf set-up but do my best with a Boss digital 8-track, a digiverb reverb pedal and a Line 6 Pod 2.0.
Among my guitars are a Squier VM Jaguar, a Squier VM Mustang, and a Revelation BassVI. All three of which are featured on the recording I've linked to below.
My 1st surf style recording is available on Soundcloud here or there's a video version here.

Hello. My name is David. I've been listening to surf music since High School. I do love the genre and have heard many cuts. I also am interested in making surf music. I currently own a Japanese Fender Jazzmaster, forget which year at the moment. And have some pedals and a decent practice amp. I'm also trying to start a new internet surf music stream. Which I'm calling Reverb Country Surf Radio, in partial homage to NSSR. Please listen hear if interested
https://streams.radiomast.io/station/79cbc866-483e-479b-a5cf-387854893ce3/player/widget?t=default&s=92082c70-753f-4d04-93f4-8f9a6ff309d8
I am looking to make it a more professional stream and expanding my playlist, even though the current one rocks a lot of cool Double Crown Records. I have social media and am going to get more engaged in using them. p.s. I have a lot of permissions to obtain and ripping to do, so yes I have A LOT more music to play. Thanks!
