The arrasatearra Jul Bolinaga, founder of the RIP group and who has participated in other musical projects, was honored in his town in June 2015 with a fruitful passion for motorcycles and music gathered in the name of the tuition. It was the inspiration and initiative of the guitarist's friends, and with their participation in the festival program, the Town Hall of Arrasate facilitated and supported the initiative. The experience of the festival held in the park Monterrón de Arrasate is very difficult to repeat: Different generations of the past and the present of the Basque music scene – and from the outside – participated, one on the stage and the other under it. But everyone praising and celebrating a person, a generation, a way of doing things, as he would in a festive atmosphere. A significant sample of what lived there is included in this double DVD published by the Jul Lagunak initiative.
In the first block of the DVD there are several music groups that were tireless Jul and that acted live that night: The Magnificent 7 project, by Mondragón, to share The Clash’s quarry with friends; the Karrocerias Betoño project, created by the brothers Txerra and Jul Bolinaga to resurrect the essence and the desparpajo of punk; Piztu Punk! ; and the Potes group, recently formed by banjo, which unites folk, party desire and punk essence.
The second block of the DVD consists of the RIP basket and was (and enjoyed) working throughout the concert behind the Txerra battery, brother of Jule and creator of RIP. Meanwhile, dozens of singers, guitars and bassists alternated on the stage of this wonderful park, making their own and sharing them with us. Old faces rejuvenated and in very good shape (Josu Zabala, Eneko Bap!, Fermin Muguruza, Drugs, Pikotas Hatred, Andoni Delirium Tremens, Niko MCD, Mamen and Loles Vulpes, Poti Scar on the Matrix, Isa IV Reich, Nabo Cirrhosis and other generations (members of Soziedad Alholika, Fer Goolloa, Juan.
