Azaleko irudiak adierazten duen bezala, lan iradokitzailea da Astirtitan. Melodia politak, hunkigarriak eta mingotsak, giro lasaiak, eta rock erritmoak entzun daitezke. Nahiko lan gordina da, gehiegizko apaindurarik gabe ekoitzia. Kantuak ederrak dira, “nahiko biluziak” Pettiren esanetan.
Grabazio saioetan, Pettirekin hainbat musikari handi aritu dira: Karlos Aranzegi (perkusioak), Iñigo Telletxea (baxua), Igor Telletxea (bateria), Joxan Goikoetxea (kordiona), Estitxu Pinatxo (ahotsak) eta Freddi Pelaez (Hammond b3).
Kantu guztien musika Pettik konposatu du. Pettik berak Egunero eta Argiak kantuen hitzak idatzi ditu, Harkaitz Canok Suerteren Bluesa eta Erramurik gabeko gauak kantuenak, eta Bernardo Goietxek Hil arte edan kantuarena.
Bost kantuak Iñaki Bengoaren eskutik Shot estudioan eta Jonan Ordorikaren eskutik Katarain estudioan grabatuak izan dira. Masterizazioa Karlos Osinaga Txapek egin du, Bonberenea estudioan. Miren Karmele Gomezek diskoaren azala egin du, J.A. Areta Goñi Juxek argazkia eta Imanol Urizarrek diseinua eta maketazioa. Denen artean lan handia egin dute eta bikain osatu dute Astirtitan lana.
Petti (Bera, Nafarroa, 1973) musikari eta musikagile handia da, aparta. Astirtitan lanaren aurretik, beste bost bakarkako disko kaleratu ditu, Gaztelupeko Hotsak eta Bonberenea Ekintzak zigiluekin –Amets bat (1999), Arrazoiak (2001), Etxeko Uzta (2002), On (2007) eta Awañak (2008)–, eta Anari, Txuma Murugarren, Rafa Rueda, Xabi Señor No edota Barrence Whitfield-ekin grabatutako diskoak ere kaleratu ditu.
Blues, rock eta folk iturrietatik edaten du, aire horiek bere kantuetan sumatzen ahal dira, baina bere-berea duen doinu bat sortu du, urtez urte, kantuz kantu, emanaldiz emanaldi eta diskoz disko osatu duen doinua. Doinu hori berehala ezagutzen dugu bere kantu bat entzuterakoan, musikari handia izateaz gain Pettik abesteko, gitarra jotzeko, eta kantuak sortzeko eta interpretatzeko modu berezi bat baitauka, paregabea.
Pettiren bihotza handia da, kantuen bidez bere ezinegona, kezkak eta sentipenak indar eta kemen handiz transmititzen ditu, eta berehala hunkitzen gaitu. Bere ahots urratu eta sakona erraietatik ateratzen du, bluesaren arimaz kutsatuta.
Jadanik zazpi urte pasatu dira Pettik bakarkako aurreko lana kaleratu zuenetik, eta bere disko berri bat entzuteko irrikan ginen aspalditik. Baina denbora horretan Petti ez da geldirik egon, Oroitzapenerako kantak III (2013), Beltza. Bye, bai, Cash (Gaztelupeko Hotsak, 2011), Imanol Urbieta, bakarrik eta libre (Elkar, 2013) eta Lou Reed, mila esker (2014) bildumetan parte hartu baitu. Gainera, jendaurreko emanaldiak egiten aritu da, bakarka, taldearekin edo beste musikari batzuekin: Balerdi Balerdi taldearekin, Gau-beranduan emanaldian Harkaitz Canorekin eta Joxan Goikotxearekin, eta Sortuko dira besteak kantaldian ere bai, esaterako.
Astirtitan “trantsizioko disko bat” izan daitekeela onartu du musikariak berak, baina udazkenerako lan luze bat kaleratzeko asmoa dauka, “disko rockeroagoa izango da, indartsua, gordina”, bere hitzetan. Disko berri hori entzuteko gogoz gaude, zain.
I was surprised – in a good sense – by this new project. In Bergara, Aitor Aldanondo, created around a stone, has many senses. In this work he wanted to somehow get what he has lived for years.

On the occasion of a documentary about Eñaut Elorrieta, I was invited to Tabakalera two or three weeks ago. I liked the invitation to the colloquial premiere, but when I approached the film I began to find many people, there Paul e Itziar, there Maiz, there Eneko, Olatz e... [+]
Sometimes you have to combine a lot of elements to get a result you haven't anticipated. This has happened in some way with the Feline group, created between Gernika and Bermeo. Iñaki Baini, from the Punk First Aid group, started playing with electronics at home and recorded... [+]
"Here, as a revelation, space and time look clearer." Look at Narbaiza come back and thank you. Narbaiza is one of the most special singers on the scene. There is no more to see how new songs govern.

I was very pleased that the Artza brothers, together with the launch of the new record, intended to retrieve and vinyl the Barrakos model, where would I buy it? In fact, the model cited in 1990 is a treasure that our music has been ignored in history. Some of those who would act... [+]
There's no other way, you have to change what you don't like and create something else: break it and start from scratch. That was the basis of punk, and that's what Leire Led Inferno (voice) and Txerra Bolinaga (drums) decided when the Piztupunk group voluntarily dissolved and... [+]

In 1988, in the midst of punk youth and RRV in Euskal Herria, between Bilbao and Santurtzi, four brave young men who looked at transoceanic music, including the antipodes, founded the La Secta group, one of the drivers of the pioneer fanzine The Heritage of the Munster. In... [+]
Euskal Herria will not issue stories like Searching for sugar man. What we are going to do is diminished and disadvantaged. But this small town, and the great hell, is the one that has given many myths that come out of the shadows and come back into the shadows.

The Perlata de Arrasate group will not marry almost anyone. Since 2015 they have been making their own way, looking at what is being done around them, but in their own direction and pace and not reassure them. They carry quite a few records and miles on their backs. I was... [+]

In the end he has done so. Finally, after years of progress, bertsolari Odei Barroso has taken his first solo job. Well, bertsolari doesn't. Raplari before being bertsolari. But the wisdom of the verse is well used, to say with rhyme to those who had to say and shake themselves... [+]
