anai arrebak
Like people who eat your ear off in discos, we’ve got close to the group Anai Arrebak thanks to the Internet. Anai Arrebak is one of the few different offers on our small music scene. I’ve long wanted to talk with them. I managed to get in touch with them through a friend of mine who’s a friend of theirs. ¨Have a good time... That’s an order!¨ You give us an order to have a good time in your song Oihu. Are you worried about a lack of hedonism?
In these hard times we want people to have a good time at our concerts, leave all their worries to one side for an hour, that’s our aim.
Anai Arrebak... you’re musicians with a lot of experience in a lot of different types of music... and also actual brothers and sisters... Does the family get on well? Is being relatives always an advantage?
It is in our case, we complement each other. I’m always thinking about music and, as she studied theatre, Margari gives us that point of view too.
¨Don’t forget to take your mask to tonight’s circus...¨ You love names and characters...
Why have poses and dressing up been so looked down on in our music scene?
I really don’t agree with your question, there have always been poses and dressing up here, just
remember Maskaradak and sword dancing, for instance! Ha, ha, ha.
You’ve brought out two special records. You’ve taken great care with your videos... Is it your challenge to show that it’s possible to make quality products from a DIY position?
No, no, it’s not a challenge for us, DIY isn’t easy if you want to do things well, but, thanks to our experience, the results are much more rewarding. All the members of the group want to get people up and dancing and manage to do that.
You’re a group that loves playing live and concerts seem to take to you as well. In these times when there are so few opportunities to play
live, how do you manage to get so many gigs?
There’s a lot of hard work involved. Some people complain about it, but if you believe in the work you do you have to do everything you can, that’s the only secret there is.
In the song Anai Arrebak party plus you say ¨Our crazy dancing knocks idiots out¨... Have you had to knock a lot of idiots out along the way?
Er, I don’t know what to say!!!!
If you want to tell us something before you disappear into a revolving disco mirror...
We’ll be looking forward to seeing you all summer, please come along! It’s an order!
