unai urkola etxabe

As a young composer, I feel heavily attracted to new and fun explorative techniques and sensory experiences, tricks, and skills in both musical and lifelong careers. Music is becoming a transversal expression, not only with other arts but with the current realities in our society and the neighbor, and thus, when I began to bathe in the deep waters of my own imagination, I constructed, made up a whole system of alter-egos to legitimate my works and their existence and organize my mind filling my works with symbolic suggestion, hidden messages, and sudden appearances. You saw them in the beginning, and their names are

Debot, Eves, Lur and Neba.
