Montau
- Experimentation and ambient music encompass space as a whole, but without forgetting the essence of Montauk. This second album, Stratak, helps us to immerse ourselves in a long and deep sleep, moving away from reality, but without exempting us from problems.
The doors of the Jimmy Jazz room in Vitoria-Gasteiz are opened as the stage is filled with smoke. Spotlights give this rainy Thursday night and musicians appear onstage.
Darkness reigns in the room. Some weak sounds that come closer start to hear each other, and along with them a whispered voice presents the song El Planes. They add the guitar and with it the sticky rhythm of the battery. Softness and tenderness penetrate your body, calm and delicate melodies approach your ears, as if at night you slept.
Acquiring the ability to abstract with the previous song, the rhythm marked by the arpeggios of the guitar is found with the help of the synthesizers. Through it we float in the void of our own thoughts.

As we approach the middle of the concert, we hear a constant, rhythmic sound of hype. You notice the trend of electronics and combines it with percussion, guitar and bass. It leads us to dance on a minimalist road, as if we were on Berlin night.
After a cry and a vendaval, we got to the song that names the album, Stratak. The game between the guitar and the battery is accompanied by a more transparent voice. It is a song with a pop trend that brings freshness to the environment and highlights the sensitivity and sweetness of the Gorka Etxebarria battery.
On the way to the end, BEÑAT Goitia stays alone in front of music lovers. With the guitar between hands and loop dancing on the feet, in a renewed version of the song Impossibility of your first album. As a arpeggio sounds, he records it and adds other noises above it, he sang with his entangled and exhilarating voice.
As the song progresses, the members of the group re-enter and then you realize that today there is a new partner. Besides bass, guitar and drums, they have a new companion with computers and symptoms. The five at a time, the noise goes in crescendo and by the time you realize you're already in the last song.
This concert of the album Stratak is an unbeatable opportunity to deepen our loneliness. The reflection and ideas of our own, leading us to think in a state of peace, identifying feelings and directing all our reflections to an order.
