Hi there,
is there any specific music related to today's surf culture? Did it change over the years?
Thanks in advance.

From my experience w/ aussie surfies they do tend to enjoy the chillness of JJ etc. But also more rockin stuff like Wolfmother. Also dabble in Presets/Cut Copy when they party.
I guess the surfies i know/knew are now a bit older and are a bit too old for the pop punk shite.

define 'todays surf culture'.
if 'today's surf culture' is 'shitty pop punk' or 'jammy reggae-influenced shit'...its still the legit successor of popular music in the 60s. marketing then, marketing now.
alot of the top surf instro bands come from all around the world despite the fact you cant surf in....er...finland.only a few surf rock bands were born at the beach, like The Mermen (which is not exactly a surf rock band). hell, even the beach boys didnt surf....thats why they (= brian wilson) were brilliant.

Sixties art figures Michael Dormer and Rick Griffin—as well as the surf magazines which promoted their art—are featured alongside the progenitors of “surf music,” from the little known (the Centurians) to the wildly popular (the Beach Boys). Duke Kahanamoku, the Gas House, Gidget, surfing on television, the bohemian surf aesthetic, surf music hot spots, Mickey “Da Cat” Dora . . . the entire spectrum of pop surf culture is covered within these colorfully illustrated pages.
Going on my wish list.
