Taldeko partaideak, Ivan "MoreiReggae" baterian, Lander "Ilarbass" baxuan, Jorge "Iortx" gitarran, Aitor "Dubrktor" teklatuan, Jokin "Glaukoma" teklatuan, Iker "Selektah" tronpetan, Unai "Txufla" tronboian, eta Iker "Beñaranks" ahotsean, hainbat urtez aritu dira elkarrekin, errepertorio zabal baten osatzeko. Lehen showcase album honetan, beren burua ezagutzera emateko 4 abesti hautatu dituzte, Roberto Sánchez maisuak Kantauriko "Lone Ark" reggae estudioan nahastu dituen beste 4 dub bertsiorekin batera aurkezten direnak. Afrikan, Jamaikan, Palestinan eta kultura gutxituak bizi diren gainontzeko lurraldeetan, memoriaren bitartez nork bere sustraiak ezagutzeko kontzientzia argia erakusten duten autoreak aurki daitezke, era askotako zapalkuntzak salatzen dituzten ahotsak. Ideia hauekin bat eginez, taldeko agoteak izenak Baztan bailaran kokatzen den giza kolektibo historikoki marginatu eta zigortu bati egiten dio erreferentzia; haien artisautza, batez ere harria eta egurra bezalako elementuen lanketa, eta musikari izaera nabarmentzen dira, besteren artean. Agoteen historia aitzaki hartuta, taldean euskararen aldeko jarrera proaktiboarekin sortzen dituzte sentimenduez, babiloniako gaitzez eta horiek sendatzeko gogoaz diharduten abestiak. ENG: Agoteak is a cultural and artistic project made up of some creators from the Basque Country, based on roots reggae music. The members of the group, Ivan "MoreiReggae" on drums, Lander "Ilarbass" on bass, Jorge "Iortx" on guitar, Aitor "Dubrktor" on keyboard, Jokin "Glaukoma" on keyboard, Iker "Selektah" on trumpet, Unai "Txufla" on trombone, and Iker "Beñaranks" as the frontman, have worked together for several years to compose an extensive repertoire. In this first showcase album, they have selected four songs to make a name in the reggae music world, which are presented along with four other dub versions that master Roberto Sánchez has mixed in his "Lone Ark" reggae studio of the Cantabrian Coast. In Africa, Jamaica, Palestine, and many other countries inhabited by diminished cultures, authors can be found who, through memory, show a clear awareness of their own roots, voices that denounce various oppressions. In accordance with these ideas, the name of the band agoteak refers to a historically marginalized and punished human group in the Baztan Valley, whose craftsmanship, especially the cultivation of elements such as stone and wood, and the character of musicians, stand out among others. On the pretext of the history of the agotes, the band creates, in Euskara (Basque language), songs that deal with feelings, with the evils of Babylon, and with the desire to change them.
