"Starting with something that looks traditional, we end up in people's laziness."

  • The witches who acted as panderists with Kepa Junkera have started their journey and presented their first album at the Durango Fair. Not to mention the trikitixa and the pandero, Neoma has incorporated into the creative project a sweet sweet sweet: electronic music.
Neomak.
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

In the post-concert emotion and in the anguish of returning to work at the booth, Eneritz Aulestia has welcomed us in the usual surroundings of the Fair, with his choirs dancing a bit. Seven Neo-Machine women make a nice akelarre on the Plateruena table, with a marked innovative character.

Trikixa and pandero and electronic music.

The seven of us came from playing the trikitixa or the pandero, because we have been in the championships since very young. That tradition we've known since we were young, and when we created Neomas, we wanted to have a touch of it, but also of the music we heard. We add to the trikitixa what we are, and in the end we add the electronic to folkloric music and we end up dancing regetón.

You are witches, with Kepa Junkera.

Yes, we were very young, we were teenagers, and there we met, then the seventh emerged. And in short, those are the roots of Neomak. We learned a lot from Junkera, it was a pleasure. At the end of this tour we had a two-year stop, but we were called for a couple of acts. So we saw that we actually acted well and tastefully together. We were witches because he called us Junkera, but we will build our way with Neomak. And that's where we are.

"We were in Sorgina because he called us Junkera, but we will build our way with Neomak."

You've seen it, you've left the small Plateruena. Satisfied with the answer?

Yes, very. The summer has also left us a good answer, even if the album comes in September. We were playing songs from the album but, of course, nobody knew them; once the album was released, we got a very good answer. People are excited to sing your songs. And otherwise, in Durango right now, we're at a standstill selling records and t-shirts, and we have quite a few concerts ahead. So, very happy.

We also see that you prepare live performances well, because you have made a nice akelarre in Plateruena.

We thought, at first we sat down, representing a crescent. But it wasn't enough, no. We couldn't be quiet.

We were clear that we didn't want it to be a simple concert. We make passes of just over an hour and we add voices off the scene, and words from one of us's grandmother, telling her experiences: for example, that the pant had never put it until she got married, or that when they went to the romerías, they touched the bell, the women had to go home. I mean, we try to convey a story beyond playing songs. It becomes a show and a kind of akelarre. Starting with something that looks traditional, we end up with people in perching.

And the image goes into the story.

Yes, we pay special attention to styling: we climbed on stage blue mahon pants, white shirts, golden jewelry and very makeup. Tattoos are also there, obviously.
