	Fermin Muguruza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fermin Muguruza ( IrÃºn, GuipÃºzcoa, Spain) is a Basque nationalist rock musician, singer, songwriter, producer and disc label manager.
		Muguruza has taken part in more than twenty albums, and is one of the most important artists from the Basque Country.
		In an international level, Fermin Muguruza holds acute left-wing views that lead him to criticize U.S. government, corporations and the globalization process, all of which he denounces as imperialistic and homogenizing apparatus.

		Fermin Muguruza was born in Irun, Spain in the early 60´s.
		Muguruza was the lead vocalist for the bands "Negu Gorriak", "Kortatu" and "Dut" and between the three approximately 10 albums were released.
		His grounds are evident: Muguruza experienced the last days of the Spanish dictatorship under Franco, witnessed the imprisonment of people simply for expressing their political convictions and the struggle of the Basque separatists with the Spanish government.

	Fermin Muguruza, Brigadistak Sound System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Muguruza sings in Basque (euskara), one of the oldest European tongues and one still actively spoken today.
		Fermin Muguruza, while cheering those who fight for solidarity and the preservation of their historical heritage, broadly condemns suffering: "Don't forget anything / Don't forget anyone / We will denounce the suffering of anybody." This is a positive and literally upbeat side of the Basque independence movement.
		Although at first one would imagine his fierce pride and support for Basque recognition to be at odds with the interconnection of the many nations represented in his songs and by the singers and musicians on the CD, one soon realises the intelligence of recognising that other groups have the same right to a voice.

		Fermin Muguruza is doubtlessly one of the most influential and charismatic artists in the Basque musical world.
		Fermin is restless and incapable of repetition, he needs to explore new paths in order to satisfy the urges of his creativity.
		Fermin attaches great importance to communication with his public, for instance, the progress of his latest work could be followed through the messages (called "communiqués") posted by the artist to his webpage.

		As the prime mover behind Kortatu and Negu Gorriak, two of the fiercest rocking punk-rooted bands you probably never heard, Fermín Muguruza is almost certainly the single most important catalyst in the development of the radical, Basque language rock/punk scene that flowered in the '80s and '90s.
		All of which sounds way too no-fun didactic but fortunately, Muguruza is also a musical true believer in the pure sonic power of memorable hooks, rampaging rhythms, and high energy that connect on a gut physical level.
		But Muguruza's dub mentality is definitely a modern world one, where choices revolve around which global dance flavors to mix into a reggae-rooted rhythm foundation.

		On FM 99.00 Dub Manifest, Fermin Muguruza (a Basque singer from Spain) demonstrates that the Basque language can be perfectly compatible with a reggae or ska beat.
		Muguruza's music is adventurous and quite unorthodox -- it isn't every day that you hear someone who mixes alternative rock with ska and reggae singing in Basque.
		Muguruza's lyrics are highly sociopolitical, although most listeners won't understand them because Basque isn't one of the world's more widely spoken languages.

		Born in Irun (on the Bay of Biscay side of the Spain-France border) in 1963, Muguruza 's musical inspiration was classic punk; a 1979 concert by the Clash in San Sebastian inspired him to buy a Telecaster.
		But Muguruza 's dub mentality is definitely a modern world one, where choices revolve around which global dance flavors to mix into a reggae-rooted rhythm foundation.

		Fermin reivindica alto y fuerte la cultura vasca: abierta, sensible y permeable a los viajes y a los encuentros; preconiza una tercera via entre la violencia y la sordera, la rebelión política permanente: rebelión que esconde una sensibilidad social enorme y también la dureza de un país dividido.

		Muguruza first kicked off his confrontational musical career in the 1980s fronting punk bands from his native Basque region of northern Spain.
		Safe to say, multi-culti reggae-based music has a wider reach than punk, and both are equally appropriate as artistic vehicles of the oppressed, though the spiritual dimensions of reggae are diminished here in favor of the genre's easy symbolism.
		And by jumping on pumping ska variations and riding dancehall's rap attack, Muguruza uncorks the perfect transgenerational outlet for his message.

	Fermin Muguruza - Art History Online Reference and Guide
		In adition to his career in music, he stood for the European Parliament elections in a low position on the Herri Batasuna list (though was not elected).
		Firstly in the band Kortatu, later in Negu Gorriak and in a one-time collaboration with Dut, and most recently in his solo career, he has always defended the use of euskera and the need for social justice.
		This position, which Muguruza frequently argues for during interviews, contrast with his lyrics, which seldomly express criticism of ETA's violence—some of them, especially from his early career in the band Kortatu, show respect and estimation for ETA members (e.g.

		Ayer por la tarde el músico vasco Fermín Muguruza se enteró de que no podrá tocar este jueves 15 en la ciudad de Valencia, en un recital que se programó como parte de los actos conmemorativos por los 20 años de creación del EZLN y una década de su levantamiento.
		Los ayuntamientos españoles argumentaron que la cancelación de los conciertos se debía a que Muguruza era un ''músico cercano a la ilegalizada coalición independentista radical vasca Batasuna'' (La Jornada, 2/10/2003).
		Por medio de estas líneas, Fermín Muguruza Kontrabanda quieren manifestar su intención de ofrecer todos los conciertos hasta la fecha programados y continuar con la gira que les llevará por diferentes países.

	Fermin Muguruza: FM 99.00 Dub Manifest - PopMatters Music Review
		Muguruza does use some dub echo tricks and some ska and reggae touches, but this isn't a "let's sound Jamaican" party.
		Overall, Muguruza's themes seem to be (in order of frequency) that the Basque people need respect, that globalization of American culture is bad, that violence is bad, and that celebrities who try to effect political change shouldn't just exchange fashion tips with the Pope.
		You end up with a generalized sense of Fermin Muguruza as a good guy with his leftist politics in the right place.

		It was Javi who tipped me to the appearance of an artist I had been hoping to see for some time: Fermín Muguruza, a scorching singer-songwriter from the neighboring Basque country, was scheduled to perform at the New York Club, around the corner at 5 Escudellers.
		Muguruza, an outspoken proponent of Basque independence, rarely appears in the U.S. He sings in Basque, which is less comprehensible to Spanish speakers than Catalan.
		Before he closed, Muguruza thanked his fans in Spanish, acknowledged the solidarity between Basques and Catalans, and offered a plea for " un mundo nuevo para todos," a new world for all.

		But listening to the Basque singer-songwriter Fermin Muguruza and his bouncing beats, hung-over-sounding horns and silly sound samples, it is easy to think he's just another happy-go-lucky stoner.
		But Muguruza is very political, even if the casual listener may not get the other half of his equation.
		While Muguruza's lyrics are filled with references relevant to young Basque listeners, the music is a hybrid of international styles such as reggae, rap and even a bit of electronica.

	Fermin Muguruza: Brigidistak Sound System - PopMatters Music Review
		Fermin Muguruza isn't exactly upbeat about the state of the world right now.
		But it's hard work sticking up for every single sad bad thing, and he sounds a little exhausted on some of the tracks; his voice, never a golden bird on silver wings to begin with, is starting to sound frayed at the edges.
		Muguruza has really done something cool here: he's created a deeply soulful and political album that also sounds great in your car when you're cruising around.

		With a pun on the initials of his own name, FM imagines a possible radio broadcast from the semi-urban wasteland of his home town, Irun, a Basque village riven by the arbitrary border of Spain and France.
		Muguruza is a man assured of his own culture, but in constant question of the nationalistic constructs that make up the world as we know it.
		Over the last fifteen years, Fermin Muguruza has been on the cutting edge of Basque music and culture - first with his seminal Clash-influenced punk/skalherria band, Kortatu, then with his expansive (though largely punk and hardcore driven) Negu Gorriak.
