He later began studying ethnic percussion (cajón, bodhrán, d´rbuka) as well as the hindú slat with Sergey Sapricheff. He played with Kepa Junkera until 2008, and currently plays with Ibon Koteron and “Etxak” (a Euskadi txalaparta band) as a txalapartari, percussionist and trikitilari. He partners with Ion Garmendia Anfurrutia on their current project, entitled “Hogeihatz Proiektua” ("Twenty Fingers Project").
