- The previous concert chronicle ended by asking for a concert by Rueda and Couch. Because instrumental music has of dancing and joy in the Basque Country, and you don't have to say everything to understand it. Ask and the Kafe Antzokia of San Sebastian has done a miracle.
The Rukulatarras had not been on the tarima for a long time and were noticed in the initial nervousness. But it was more noticeable with the attendees. At 19:00 there was no one willing to enter, but at 19:30 the concert was underway with all friends and friends. Yes, everyone, most, friends.
The group of wild boar clandestinely displaced from Usurbil occupied the northeast. A bit formal without getting too out of the chair. And dance nonstop. Each in his own way, moving his arms, necks, feet, but also elbows (! ), breasts (!!! ), hips (!!) also. Because the Rukul do have a magic recipe.
When we lived on the mountain of Zaldibia, those of Rukula (when there was no pandemic) touched once by the orchard, and after dancing a lot of dances, I had to bend my ankle well throughout the summer. At the end of the concert, and looking at the inflated and deformed muscle, the group screamed: “Our method works! You have ruculitis!”
When: 26 February
NoN: Kafe Antzokia from San Sebastian
There is no doubt that rukulitis works, both when mounted on the stage and when they descend down among fans. Battery in house, afro and Latin, low in funky and punky and guitars Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. What can go wrong?
It happens that we often like a Basque group because we resemble an international group (who makes their connections). It happened to me backwards with the album Your Queen is a Reptile from the Sons of Kemet group that I found in the Space Hall store in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin. In my first hearing, I was not mistaken for Afro-Jazz consisting of saxo, tuba and two batteries. But at one point I remember rukulitis and I imagine dancing again on one leg. Now it's one of my favorite groups thanks to the spaces that Rukula opens.
And there goes the magic of the rukulus. They are able to open new fields, of different styles and moments. Doka hasn’t stopped dancing at any time. They don't either (sweat per witness). Because rukulitis works just like standing, sitting, drunk or anyone you want. It's the kind of dance that invents and reinvents a community where ruculitis is mostly growing.
