Over the red light
The Clayton
Self-production, 2023
--------------------------------------------------
This group of Aramaio (Araba) drew attention in the vicinity of Arrasate in 2019, when they began to interpret that they were very young and published a rock model called Los Clayton. Spectacular direct, very fine and comfortable musicians singing, plus a frontman who knows what to do on stage.
Later in the middle of the Martin L pandemic. In the Silver studio of Guevara, they recorded and published a long work called Phoenix, elegant, vigorous, which at the turn of rock explores different styles and schools, many of them sweaty and felt.
Later, in the fifth edition of the music competition Danbaka Debagoiena, the first prize of the competition was obtained, facilitating the recording of this album. On this occasion they go to Zestoa to record, mix and masterise with Eñaut Gaztañaga. And then they come back in the scenes, in essence, under the arm of this work.
Phoenix had some hints of it and this time they wanted to make a delicious stop in the American melody of its roots. Thus, Gose is an American sound song and sturdy body, which also plays at medium temperature and sometimes leads guitars. Inertia is more intense, fast and playful. Intense and sticky rock and roll at a fast pace. The N-260 is even more American, which also links with the blues, what a riffs guitar and what a round result! In the rain is singing: With the help of Idoia Tapia, an almost epic and sensitive piece – porciierto, attentive to the video clip of this song – that drinks from American roots and that has no envy to the pop-rock after making a txikiteo with Eskean Cristo. I've also been fascinated by Let loose, with the pub-rock skeleton, because the clothes are more rocker and half the tempos is also rounded. At Buffalo, they make it clear that a lot can be said with few, because they convey the pleasure of playing. Light me up is an intense rock and roll. And finally, the evil rock Aingurarik ez, a finishing piece that links California melodies with Basque rock.
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.
Philosophy “Eixu Zeuk”. That is the basis and the goal. “Take the... [+]

I will say that from Abregotarrak, like from... [+]
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... [+]
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... [+]
Fly Shit is one of the few hardcore groups in Debagoiena. Without great intentions and totally convinced when they do, they have a firm path on their backs without squeezing the hurts and at the same time without cuts. Moreover, they have never given a bad concert, nor a major... [+]
Oñati is a special village in many ways, and let us not say, under the eyes of neighbouring peoples, what glasses we wear! People and citizens have many characteristics of their own, and the movement surrounding the youth assembly, both in the past and in the surroundings of... [+]
How many things go unnoticed. Even if they move in niches, is each niche no longer too big? This EP by artist Alai comes from Tolosa with a perfectionist electronics like breakbeat, jungle, UK garage and aromatized house with an Afro-Caribbean flavor.
And what I thought was a... [+]
Even though I felt like Escorbutin in my youth, Antton Carretero, born in Aramaio, has always had
a longer look: punka yes, of course, and the kinya is better, but he looks at many other styles going through prejudices, canallagos, more sensitive… All of them help to bring... [+]
I placed the group in the
queer movement of Madrid, and recently I had the opportunity to know it in its essence, the direct one. Then I learned that the group was created by Bethlehem (voice and guitar), born in Argentina and moved from young to Madrid, and that he joined

In the past, we already knew by heart all Joker’s phrases from The Dark Knight, as “chaos agent.” I had him, for example, to explain his behavior: "Do I think of a guy with a plan? Do you know what I am? A dog running behind cars. I wouldn't know what to do if I hit him. I'm... [+]

I have never known very well what the British roll is, perhaps because I have never been very fond. However, I have no doubt about what they say. It can be seen in sound and melody, a... [+]

If there is not enough time to read this text, I will summarize it: listen to Pelax. Now you have no excuses, they've uploaded all of their discography to Spotify for the first time, even... [+]
