hey all~
I was wondering if you listen to any Basque music that you would recommend. I have a few CDs and tapes that are mostly accordian and more appropriate for a marching band than anything else. Is there any new music out there for the younger generation? Lemme know!

Thu, June 3, 2004 - 3:54 PMSustraya is a really cool group and Sutagar as well. They are both rock groups. Little tidbit of info on Sutagar... They were destined for greatness and were going to sign with an American record company but they didnt want to sign in English like the record company wanted them too. A lot of people said that they were better then Metallica and that the drummer of Sutagar at one point was known that the worlds best drummer(bateria maja, que se dice bateria). But he lost the movement in his upper body after an unfortunate car accident. Other than that I dont know any basque music but I will be sure to ask the guys(dorks) over here. By the way, for those of you who didnt know, 50 cent is half basque, Oh its true, its damn true

Fri, June 4, 2004 - 11:27 AMThere's a really influential and well respected singer called Mikel Laboa that you should check out. I suppose you could broadly describe his music as Basque folk but don't let that put you off. A lot of his lyrics are about his country and culture and his songs are influenced by traditional Basque music. I know it's in no way new music but he's an essential starting point for anyone with an interest in Basque music. -

good stuff, check it out and tell me Basque women aren't the most beautiful women in the world! Ugh! (make my tummy hurt!)
Oh, and M.C.: Meet Phill...
Phill's a Basquophile from the U.K.. Everyone say "Allo, mate!"
Plus he knows more about E.H. than I do and I've been there three times!

Re: Basque music?
Sun, January 15, 2006 - 3:07 PMBTW Bilbo Hiria Irratia has not been on www.shoutcast.com for some time. I miss it.
I want to add to the list of Basque music Tapia eta Leturia. Their music is melodic, but their lyrics are very politically biting.
