Description
On the 20th of June 1984 he published his first demo with his band Kortatu in Irun. Since then it has been 40 years; 40 years making the world’s B side dance, 40 years in the frontline.
In these 4 decades, has metabolised the punk, rock, reggae, dub, hip-hop, soul, drum & bass, funk and any other musical style he has encountered along the way, making sing, scream and kick various generations. He has made apparently unsingable words like “fascism”, “hypocrisy” or “dam bourgeois” dance and invited Bertolt Brecht, Mikel Laboa, Angela Davis, Rosie Pérez, Malcolm X and Sarri to that particular choreography of his. Because we are not alone and we neither want to be, Fermin Muguruza has provoked the craziest connections here and there, and in the same way that all the glory of the world fits in one corn grain, he has shown again and again that all the nations of the world fit in this little corner of ours. This way, when we shout “long live the people!”, we don’t exactly know which people/nation we are referring to, and in that unknown lies, in reality and depth, the nucleus of all this.
