Hasiera Bat' (A Beginning) is the first album that Gorka Urbizu has signed under his own name. After 25 years at the helm of Berri Txarrak, the musician from Navarre is committed to beauty and rawness, and proposes a journey to the very heart of the song.
Fleeing from any temptation to add layers and layers of sound, the author chooses the opposite path: there seems to be a premise throughout the album of stripping and emptying the songs until they are left in their minimum expression. Beautiful. Raw. Pure. That's what makes them tough as rocks, fragile as a leaf in the wind.
