Sound paintings and landscapes
Softness and strength, intensity. Changes in rhythm and atmosphere, landscapes and colors can be observed in the songs of the second album of the group Habide Amasa-Villabona (Gipuzkoa).
Occasionally, you can hear delicate and exciting melodies, with glitter, beautiful melodies. In other passages you can feel a fluttering sound, distortion, because the melodies are violent, raw, noisy. The storm and calm have combined very well.
Jon Ander Artola performs very well relaxed, intense and playful rhythms, or strong and strong, with very precise hits. Yeray Gascón, for his part, complies with the chords of his guitar, his drawings and other nuances, and saw them well with his special and sensitive voice.
Through songs they convey the hope and the desire to escape or leave the edge of the precipice. You want to stand up in spite of a stumbling block or get a hit to move forward. Pain, heartbreak, death... courage to face problems. They express all of that from within, as they feel, and they also make self-criticism.
His first album, entitled Loratu, saw the light last year, and like the previous one, the recording of his new work has been carried out in the Elkar studios, under the direction of sound technician and producer Victor Sánchez. They've done a good production job, working carefully on the arrangements and details, all in place, without a garnish that can be left over, and the songs are heard clean, loud and audible.
Kolore has been edited in CD and vinyl format, with the collaboration of editor Elkar. Anyone who has difficulty obtaining them can do so via the group’s website.
The Habib group is making its journey quickly. It was founded in 2018, in just two years it has composed two albums and has made a lot of public performances in different locations. And they've only just started, because they live and make music with a lot of passion. Thus, compared to the first album, it is evident that the group has taken a step further in its trajectory with the Kolore disc, both in terms of songs and production.
I was surprised – in a good sense – by this new project. In Bergara, Aitor Aldanondo, created around a stone, has many senses. In this work he wanted to somehow get what he has lived for years.
Aldanondo started her musical career in the Criminal Brigade group, dedicated to... [+]
On the occasion of a documentary about Eñaut Elorrieta, I was invited to Tabakalera two or three weeks ago. I liked the invitation to the colloquial premiere, but when I approached the film I began to find many people, there Paul e Itziar, there Maiz, there Eneko, Olatz e... [+]

"Here, as a revelation, space and time look clearer." Look at Narbaiza come back and thank you. Narbaiza is one of the most special singers on the scene. There is no more to see how new songs govern.
Because for most creators, what we do is the shadow of what we've done once... [+]
I was very pleased that the Artza brothers, together with the launch of the new record, intended to retrieve and vinyl the Barrakos model, where would I buy it? In fact, the model cited in 1990 is a treasure that our music has been ignored in history. Some of those who would act... [+]
There's no other way, you have to change what you don't like and create something else: break it and start from scratch. That was the basis of punk, and that's what Leire Led Inferno (voice) and Txerra Bolinaga (drums) decided when the Piztupunk group voluntarily dissolved and... [+]

Euskal Herria will not issue stories like Searching for sugar man. What we are going to do is diminished and disadvantaged. But this small town, and the great hell, is the one that has given many myths that come out of the shadows and come back into the shadows.
In the 1980s,... [+]
The Perlata de Arrasate group will not marry almost anyone. Since 2015 they have been making their own way, looking at what is being done around them, but in their own direction and pace and not reassure them. They carry quite a few records and miles on their backs. I was... [+]

Any of us, each of us, are necessarily a reflection swimming in an immense sea surrounded by threats, opportunities and many other living beings. We have a good job in managing our own flotation line, as well as choosing what to collect and dispense with waves, waves, etc. They... [+]
In the end he has done so. Finally, after years of progress, bertsolari Odei Barroso has taken his first solo job. Well, bertsolari doesn't. Raplari before being bertsolari. But the wisdom of the verse is well used, to say with rhyme to those who had to say and shake themselves... [+]
