"Plays a veriety of instruments and also writes more song-oriented material. Here Irazoki plays "lap steel, nylon strings, electric guitar and banjo", and dedicates the work to late masters like Derek Bailey and Robbie Basho. In "Olatuetan" there's probably more of the former's abstract bruitisme than the latter's ecstatic cascades, though the Takoma style surfaces in the quieter, or more structured moments ("Behin bashorekin olatuetan"). While predictably not as stellar as his inspirators, Irazoki surely knows how to grasp his audience: to mention only the most remarkable pieces, "Belin olatuetan" is an inspiring start made of tiny swerves, pauses and repeats dotting clusters of sparse notes; "Bertze behin olatuetan" is a cubist-like performance for sharp, disjointed sounds and whispers; and both final pieces, the bow-driven "Betirako olatuetan" and the fingerpicking-driven "Bertze behin bashorekin olatuetan", successfully match a more recognizable playing with feedback noise. A concise but often surprising work. Review by: Eugenio Maggi."
