I am passionate about music, theater, sound and especially the voice.
Although I was a very shy child, I have the memory that, in the intimacy of the home, I have always been playing with her. All behind closed doors, of course! Although from time to time I let loose a little, like the time we had a visit from a radio journalist in class, and I started singing Yeke Yeke Yeke by Mory Kante. Without knowing it and dead embarrassed, that was probably my first collaboration for a radio station.
Over the years, I have sung a lot. First at mass, much to the disgrace of my late father whom I asked to take me to church every Sunday while he wondered what I had seen as attractive in that celebration. It turned out that what I liked about it was that it was sung. Then that fever passed, but I continued singing in music groups of all styles, in the Orfeón Pamplonés, and also in dubbing studios.
In dubbing and voice-over I found my true vocation: Interpreting.
To be an actor, but in the shadows of a recording studio.
A profession that, after more than 25 years since my first call, continues to excite and attract me as the first day. It is true that I have not had much time to get bored because I have been trained in many areas within the industry, which has allowed me to empathize with the different profiles that compose it and learn from them.
I’m a multifaceted weirdo who is sometimes in front of the microphone, sometimes on this side of the fishbowl playing with faders, and other times collaborating with advertising agencies in the reduction of the copy of the Basque voiceover that is always long. I love directing other friendly voices, accompanying them in search of the perfect take that each story needs, or carrying all day in my head that melody whose translation and adjustment gets stuck in my head, turning it over and over, until I find the perfect metric and prosody.
I like to take care of every project with care and detail.
And I also get involved in an integral way, providing a global view that goes beyond the simple fact of providing voices.
To still be here, 25 years later, being part of this profession that I love and respect so much, excites me, and I hope I can continue to be excited for another 25 years recording beautiful things in the company of studios, agencies, present and future clients, artists, colleagues, people with whom to continue sharing projects, experiences and learning.
If you have something in your hands and you would like to work with me, it will be a pleasure to work with you.
