Free Music Notes for PanamericanaFree Music Review: Just as good as the first Hit: 5 StarsI have no idea why some people think this album is so different from Gran Hotel, but it's not at all. It's a pretty common phenomenon for people to react that way to an album they've been anticipating with high hopes I guess. But the fact is, this is along the exact same lines. There's very few stylistic changes, and the overall feel is almost exactly the same. It's slightly less lush because he cut out some of the atmospheric background, but mix up the songs from the 2 albums and no one would be able to tell you which songs were from which. I was weary before I got this because people say it doesn't live up to his debut, but I was wasting my time worrying about those people. Not only does it live up to it, but it's basically an extension of it. If you love Gran Hotel, you should definitely give this a try. If you're not familiar with Federico already, he makes chilled-out latin lounge music with Spanish lyrics. It's all very mellow with lots and lots of Spanish guitar and pleasant voices.
Free Music Review: Better the second time Hit: 5 StarsFederico Aubele writes,plays, and sings a style of music that is nice to listen to over and over...and should age well
This album, is a little less pop (to me) than his first but in a very nice way
Free Music Review: So smooth! Hit: 5 StarsFrom my first listen, I loved the entire album. The Spanish guitar, the percussion, and both of their voices are so sultry.
Love it!
Free Music Review: Highly Recommended Hit: 5 StarsAt first listen, I didn't think this was as good as Gran Hotel Buenos Aires, his first album. In the end though, it is--this album has a more consistent groove--some of it is even danceable. In part, this makes it sound a bit more generic, and a bit less distinctive; there is less of a clear Argentinian center on this disc.
This album doesn't have the highs of the first album--no song is as good as Diario de Viaje or Contigo--but the tone is more consistent and even than Gran Hotel, which had some extremely slow, dirge-like songs that broke up the rhythym of even a 5-star album. As good as Gran Hotel was, it isn't easy to listen to it all at once. This album is more coherent, and easy to listen to all the way through, any time day or night--it represents the growth of an excellent artist. The song with Amparo Sanchez of Amparonoia is excellent--they really should do an album together!
Free Music Review: Not very friendly Hit: 1 StarsI could only play this in my car. When I put it in my Mac and tried to download it to iTunes it caused iTunes to crash. It took me a couple of hours to fix my iTunes. All I wanted to do was load it on my iPod so I could take it with me. I don't know what caused it but I am not happy.
