Nork Erran Eni was recorded at Gaua Studios in Mungia by Asier Zubelzu. The album features two tracks, Nork Erran Eni and Esperoan, which were previously recorded by Kaki Arkarazo at Garate Studios in Andoain. The album perfectly captures the essence of swing music, offering an acoustic and organic sound that is, above all, original. It is a worthy heir to tradition, with the added value of being performed in Basque. Erromintxelak lives up to its reputation as a live band and invites us to celebrate the festive spirit of each track on its debut album. The Guipuzcoan band takes us on a journey through swing with Nork Erran Eni, featuring lyrics by Jon Mirande and the exceptional vocals of renowned jazz singer Irati Bilbao. This track evokes the spirit of Cole Porter or Duke Ellington, with lyrics once again penned by Jon Mirande. Although the main responsibility for musical composition falls to Jon García del Val (arranger of all the tracks), Aitor Moreno and the rest of the band, the exception is Oies errondan dabil, an original composition by Mikel Laboa, interpreted in the unique style of Erromintxelak. Pako Aristi contributes lyrics to the cosmopolitan Erabaki, while another distinguished guest, Leire Etxezarreta (Neomak), provides backing vocals to Luigi Anselmi’s lyrics on Gehienetan Urrun, in New Orleans parade style along with Jon García on the emotional Zapping Zalearena with lyrics by Xabier Montoia. The band showcases its streetwise and cool side in Heriotzaren Andere, breathing new life into the spirit of Cab Calloway in the dynamic Esperoan, inspired by a poem by Martin Bidaur.
