Our Take

Ah, KORRONTZI, the Basque folk band that can make even the most stoic of listeners break out into an impromptu jig. Their latest album, Tradition 2.1, is a delightful fusion of traditional Basque melodies and modern flair that is sure to leave you tapping your feet and itching to join in on the fun.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you are transported to a lively Basque village festival, with the sounds of accordion, txalaparta, and alboka swirling around you in a dizzying whirl of joy and celebration. The infectious energy of tracks like "Akelarre" and "Tximeleta" will have you grinning from ear to ear, unable to resist the urge to get up and dance.

But it's not all just high-energy romps and foot-stomping beats - KORRONTZI also showcases their more introspective side with tracks like "Lau Haizetara" and "Txoria-Txori," allowing the listener to catch their breath before diving back into the jubilant festivities.

Overall, Tradition 2.1 is a wonderfully eclectic mix of traditional Basque music and innovative modern twists that is guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a bounce in your step. KORRONTZI have once again proven themselves as masters of their craft, delivering an album that is as fun as it is musically impressive. So go ahead, press play and let the music of KORRONTZI sweep you away on a whirlwind journey of pure joy and exuberance.
