Villava's tent was small yesterday at the Hatortxurock festival. "Txiki, but with solidarity," the organizers confirm with a note. "The policy of alienation has ended and with it has radically changed the conflict situation in the Basque Country. But we have memory and love for tones." That is why the victims of the policy of dispersion were reminded at the event: Sara Fernández, Rosa Amezaga, Arantza Amezaga, Pilar Arsuaga, Alfonso Isasi, Antxoni Fernandez, Jose Mari Maruri, Mari Karmen Salbide, Rubén Garate, Iñaki Saez, Asier Heriz, Leo Iturralde, Iñesteele Balagativity
"The policy of remoteness is past, yes, but it has not yet settled everything", the organizers acknowledged that the next challenge is "to turn the situation that perpetuates us to the past and to give way to the issue of Basque prisoners, refugees and deportees." "We have a new ending on the horizon."
The tents launched yesterday were filled with thousands of people. And for everything to be organized well and the festival to go well, about 500 people worked. "What treasure it is today to put hundreds of people voluntarily, affectionately, at work and achieve that result," he says.
However, the festival has not been round. "It's been far from round," the organizers say, referring to two macho attacks. "We say this clearly, we have to fix the issue of prisoners, refugees and deportees among all, and that's why we want people to join Hatortxu Rock. But more clearly than you, that aggressor, is not welcome. Hatortxu Rock has to be a safe space for everyone and we will have to keep working."
Punk. Punk is back, or, rather, has never gone. Those from Zikine come from Lekitxo (and not from Lekeitio), with the elegant Bala Galdua Zure Buru Galduan who have recently published with Pentecost.

See if it is possible to bring the Basque to the center of the party. This year’s Plaza del Castillo concerts have been betting as dangerous as they are rewarding. Hitherto, Izaro, Chill Mafia and Zetak have become a great success. But for the fourth night, I don't know if you... [+]
The sum of four elements does not always give four, usually more than that. And of course, they walked through a number of projects and to know how and why they came together. Atxe, Led Inferno, Osoron and Txerra. We thought they were going to make punk for the background, but... [+]
Born 7 May 1824. Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770-1827) 9. Premiere of the Symphony. It was the last symphony that the German composer wrote, but as for intention, you can say it was the first. Beethoven wrote Symphony No. 1 in 1799 and 1800, years before he was born in his head No. 9... [+]
You cannot read a group without taking into account the past of your colleagues; and in this case, exercise is even more difficult. There's a member of Tatxers, and Borla reminds the Tatxers group. It is inevitable to think about the previous group, but we stayed short, because... [+]
In Durango's Hitz bookstore, it occurred to me that the Saturraran opera deserved criticism. On the one hand, the response of Jose Julián Bakedano, the illusion of the words of Gaizka Olabarri from the bookstore, the illusion of Nekane Bereziartua, who for so many years has been... [+]
Summer comes and with it the popular festivals of towns, neighborhoods and cities. Festivities have always been the refuge of social and political demands, neighborhood relations and popular euphoria. They take our streets and for a few days they are an example of... [+]
