Young Argentine guitarist Federico Aubele became transfixed with the music of Astor Piazzolla even as he listened to the cool lounge sounds of Thievery Corporation and the Six Degrees label. Incredibly, he put these influences together for an exceptional debut album entitled Gran Hotel Buenos Aires. It's produced by the Thievery guys, but one gets the sense that this really came from Aubele. He surrounds his downtempo beats delicate acoustic guitar figures, an array of sexy women singers (all vocals are in Spanish), and a rich tapestry of sounds and tones. Pushing flamenco and various styles of Latin music to the fore, he also draws upon dub and ambient, and it's the grace of this hip fusion that puts Aubelle up there with such genre benders as Manu Chao and the Gotan Project. Highlights include the upbeat "Ante Tus Ojos" and the rich Latin groove "Esta Noche," but the album is strong from beginning to finish. A truly impressive first effort. --Tad Hendrickson

I'm a huge Thievery Corp fan and Federico's release is just as good or better than anything TC has released. The flavor and execution of Gran Hotel has been described already in other posts. You won't regret the purchase.

This CD is so cool. The rhythm and sound throughout the entire CD is spellbinding. The songs are so eclectic. The CD could easily fit in the background to your next get together, to sipping coffee, reading a book, a romantic dinner or even just driving around in your car. If you enjoy guitar and Spanish style music this is a MUST for your collection.
