Hemen beharko luke

10.00 

Recorded entirely in Mutriku (Guipuzkoa) over several sessions and produced by Txuma Murugarren himself alongside Miguel Ramírez and Ekaitz Hernández, this, his latest album, features Rafa Aceves on piano and Natxo Beltrán on drums, all of whom are regular contributors to previous productions. For listeners unfamiliar with Txuma Murugarren’s musical universe, what they will find in Hemen beharko luke (It Should Be Here) is a varied catalog of distinctive textures with excellent production work: pop beauty underpinned by electronic rhythms in tracks like Ni ez naiz (I Am Not a Poet), the gentle minimalism that serves as a canvas for Dena Amiltzen´s raw lyrics (Everything Sinks), or the electronic character wrapped in furious guitars in Ezer ez da berez (Nothing Is on Its Own). A multifaceted Murugarren tells us about the nostalgia of Berantetsia (Impatient) while showing his most electronic side through the pop-infused passages of Lizar bat (An Ash Tree). In addition to featuring Juan de Diego on trumpet, the electronic character predominates again in songs like Lagunak Joan (Friends Leave) and Amore Bukaera (Don’t Give Up), both sprinkled with a lyrical quality that defines the inherent quality of a chronicler of the darker side of the human soul such as Txuma Murugarren.

Hemen beharko luke is the place where the two sides of the same coin are displayed as the hallmark of an inimitable artist. Sharp, flexible, sometimes incendiary words paired with exquisite musical creativity. It is here, now. Unfulfilled ambition and the battle won, the yet-to-be-lived and what is still to come. Sides of the same coin that, in the end of the day, are a part of the extraordinary beauty of being alive.

“The small deception of life. The illusion placed before us. What we once believed we could touch with our fingertips. We invested all our time pursuing that which always seemed on the verge of ripening. Now that it should be here, however, we realize that it never ripened and never will. Everyone will have their own goal during this long, fruitless wait. However, we mustn’t think that all hope is lost. The message is that we are still alive and vulnerable, and this is not the time to give up. Life is elusive and sometimes stingy, yet it also offers extraordinary beauty “.

Txuma Murugarren’s words, written as an introduction to the album, are left intact here, as they provide the perfect description of the fascination produced by this extraordinary collection of songs. We can add that Txuma successfully conveys the message through these songs.

An emotional confession created and recorded at home with his loved ones and friends that is a call to live, enjoy, and feel life to the fullest, with good music always as a companion.
