"Yo muero como viví" (I die as I lived) is born from guitar player Dani Artetxe deep love for the great Silvio Rodriguez music, and his desire to deepen in it, going beyond recreation, adding his own voice and especially his extraordinary guitar sound, in a project conceived with a lot of affection and care, after several rehearsing months and adjusting the appropriate songbook.
We find ourselves, above all, in facing an enthusiastic and vital tribute full of tremendous energy. Dani's guitar plays and molds the beautiful original melodies, at times with an overwhelming fierceness and at other times with the delicacy and accuracy of a goldsmith. Not in vain, among the influences he cites for the creation of this album we find references as heterogeneous as Black Sabbath, King Gizzard, and the Lizard Wizard or Supertramp, and the truth is that it is possible to find echoes of all of them in his exuberant range of sounds. His project partners follow his pace letting loose in each song without complexes, caught and immersed in the same current and enjoying it, expanding, and brightening the themes in an amazing synchrony that demonstrates the care with which everything has been prepared and that love for Silvio, for his melodies, for jazz and for the power of music, in short. A small delight.
