Behi bi blues
Gaizka Azkarate & Azkaiter Pelox
Gaztelupeko Hotsak, 2014
Unai Azkarate Bergarako musikaria Fly Shit taldea utzi ondoren hasi zen Azkaiter Pelox moduan 2004an, blues, rhythm and blues, rock and roll eta beste zenbait doinu beltz lantzen. Azken urteotan hainbat disko kaleratu ditu, 2012an Zamburleiker 6.0 izenekoa, eta hainbat modutan aritu da jendaurrean: Azkaiter Pelox, Azkaiter Pelox Band, Azkaiter Pelox eta The Road Band –Carlos Ortiz eta Amaia Azpiazu musikariekin–, Mahaster River, Gaizka Azkarate & Azkaiter Pelox...
Hain zuzen, Gaizka Azkarate Soraluzeko gaztearekin osatu du Behi bi blues diskoa. Azkaratek harmonika jotzen du, Azkaiter Peloxek gitarra jo eta kantatu, eta kantuak Fredi Pelaez teknikariaren laguntzarekin grabatu dituzte Beasaingo Pottoko estudioan.
Kantu gehienak Azkaratek eta Peloxek beraiek sortu dituzte, eta bertsio pare bat egin dute. Otis Reddingen Sittin’on the Dock Of The Bay kantuaren bertsioaren bidez Gipuzkoako Orioko itsas ertzera eraman gaituzte, eta Bap! taldearen Ez dut ezer esan nahi hardcore kantua modu akustikoan egin dute, beren erara.
Blues doinuak dira, baina bluesaren giro malenkoniatsuari bizitasuna gehitzen diote eta ironiaz idatzitako hitzek irribarrea eragiten dute. Giro polita sortzen dute, azken batean. Azkaiterrek berak aitortu duenez, gai sakonen edo potoloen gainean hitz egin baino, nahiago dute xumeagoak diren beste gai batzuen edo gertakizun txikien inguruan aritu.
Bluesa maite dutela nabarmena da, ongi ezagutzen dutela. Doinu horiek jotzen eroso aritzen dira, eta aise egiten dute. Dena den, beren kantuek beste zenbait estiloren ukituak ere badituzte. Zerbait begian sartu zait eta Etxera bueltan kantuetan, esaterako, funk eta swing aireak suma daitezke. Etxera bueltan kantuan, hain zuzen ere, bidaiak dituzte hizpide. Azkaiterren hitzetan, Gaizka eta bera oso bidaia zaleak dira, eta bidaiek eskaintzen omen diete kantuak sortzeko inspirazioa.
Azkaiter Peloxek eta Gaizka Azkaratek eskarmentua ez ezik, umorea, gatza eta piperra erakusten dute kantuak jotzean. Ausardiarekin, batere beldurrik eta lotsarik gabe aritzen dira, erraztasun handiarekin, eta musika tresnak ongi menperatzen dituztela eta ederki pasatzen dutela nabarmena da. Beren kantuak gustura entzuten ditut. Diskoan eta jendaurreko emanaldietan.
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... [+]
Sometimes you have to combine a lot of elements to get a result you haven't anticipated. This has happened in some way with the Feline group, created between Gernika and Bermeo. Iñaki Baini, from the Punk First Aid group, started playing with electronics at home and recorded... [+]
"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... [+]
If you're one of those listening to music on the Internet, you almost certainly know Kokoroko. You don't think so, but take a second and look for Abusey Junction. The melancholic riff guitar by Oscar Jerome has been known for being among the favorites of the algorithm of platforms... [+]
The Neoma group leads to the percussion of tradition, with a careful electronic mold. Leire Etxezarreta, Amets Ormaetxea and Irati Gutierrez de Arrasate, Garazi Otaegi de Asteasu, Eneritz Aulesti de Zarautz, Maria Lasa de Zizurkil and Alaitz Eskuero de Deba are the seven... [+]
In 1988, in the midst of punk youth and RRV in Euskal Herria, between Bilbao and Santurtzi, four brave young men who looked at transoceanic music, including the antipodes, founded the La Secta group, one of the drivers of the pioneer fanzine The Heritage of the Munster. In... [+]
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... [+]
The pandemic crisis has also been a new opportunity for regeneration, as demonstrated by the Odolaren Mintzoa group in Usurbil. His work mocking normality has been slowly cured in the Garate de Andoain studies. With the help of Kaki Arkarazo collects 8 refined songs.
As for the... [+]
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... [+]
