With this new work, entitled Getxo, the Parlane sensibility is recognizable: an interest in sublimity, minor keys and mesmerizing repetition.
Getxo is part of the evolved and evolving Parlane aesthetic, very knowledgeable, drawing on a wide range of influences, and innately musical, seductive and affecting, full of quiet and not so quiet catches and hooks, so easy that the difficulty is camoflagued.
On Getxo, Parlane...[creates] warm sonics rich with dense walls of static and the cadence of hypnotic waves, that move from the minimal to the complex.

 Getxo Getxon bizi
Auzo berriak herriak gora egin zezan eragin zuen, eta, honi esker, garraiobideak hobetu ziren: zaldiek bultzatzen zuten tranbia elektrikoa bihurtu zen 1881ean, eta 1887an ibaiaren eskuin ibarreko trenbidea, Getxo eta Bilbo elkartzen zituena, egin zen.
Hori dela eta, bainu-etxeak kostaldera mugitu ziren eta, honela, auzo berri bat jaio zen, Neguri izenekoa, udako etxe eta txaletez betetako luxuzko bizitegi-auzoa.
Getxo herri gaztea da, bere biztanleen %85,46 haurrak edo helduak, eta hirurogeita lau urtetik gorakoak, aldiz, %14,54 bakarrik, baitira.
