Born and raised in Buenos Aires, he started playing music at 12, with his early musical influences coming from his mother, an amateur guitarist and a notary by profession. He moved to Berlin in 2001 during the Argentine economic crisis, where he lived for several years. After submitting a demo via email to Thievery Corporation's Eighteenth Street Lounge Music, he was signed quickly to the label and in 2003 released his debut album Gran Hotel Buenos Aires , produced by Thievery Corporation. In 2006, he played at the Austin City Limits Music Festival. His song "Esta Noche" was featured in the 5th season of the TV series Alias. After Berlin, he moved to Barcelona where he began working on his next album, Panamericana, which was released on September 18, 2007, also produced by Thievery Corporation.
He now lives in Barcelona, Spain and he frequently returns to Buenos Aires.
Diario De Viaje
Federico Aubele Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El azul se oscurece aquí,
El día que se va,
Y los sonidos se pierden así,
Parara,
La cálida inmensidad,
A orillas de un vasto mar,
Los barcos que parten ya,
Para-pa
Y justo cuando empiezo a cantar,
El mundo comienza a girar,
La primavera queda atrás,
Y los tonos cambian ya
No se que quedará,
Tampoco que es lo que se irá,
No se, no se que es lo que quedará.
Pero nada, nada se detendrá.
In Federico Aubele's song Diario De Viaje, he describes the passing of time and the changes that come with it. The beginning of the song paints a picture of the end of the day, as the blue sky starts to darken and the sounds of the day fade away. This sets the tone for reflection and introspection as the song progresses. The lyrics "la cálida inmensidad" (the warm vastness) describe a feeling of being on the edge of something big and unknown, perhaps like the ocean. This feeling is further emphasized with the mention of departing ships marking both a beginning and an end.
As the song continues, Aubele's lyrics take on a dreamlike quality. He sings of the world spinning and the change of seasons, emphasizing the transience of all things in life. The lyrics "no se que quedará, tampoco que es lo que se irá" (I don't know what will remain, nor what will go) highlight the uncertainty of what the future holds, but also the inevitability of change.
Overall, "Diario De Viaje" is a reflective piece that speaks to the human experience of time passing and the uncertainty of what the future may bring. The dreamlike qualities of the lyrics and music further reinforce the idea that life is fleeting and ever-changing.

El día se va,
The day is ending,
El azul se oscurece aquí,
The blue sky is darkening here,
El día que se va,
The day that is passing,
Y los sonidos se pierden así,
And the sounds fade away,
Parara,
Stop,
La cálida inmensidad,
The warm vastness,
A orillas de un vasto mar,
By the shore of a vast sea,
Los barcos que parten ya,
The boats that are leaving now,
Marcando principio y final,
Marking the beginning and end,
Para-pa
Stop,
Y justo cuando empiezo a cantar,
And just when I start to sing,
El mundo comienza a girar,
The world begins to spin,
La primavera queda atrás,
Spring is left behind,
Y los tonos cambian ya
And the tones already change,
No se que quedará,
I don't know what will remain,
Tampoco que es lo que se irá,
Nor what will go away,
No se, no se que es lo que quedará.
I don't know, I don't know what will remain.
Pero nada, nada se detendrá.
But nothing, nothing will stop.

El día se va,
El azul se oscurece aquí,
El día que se va,
Y los sonidos se pierden así,
Parara,
La cálida inmensidad,
A orillas de un vasto mar,
Los barcos que parten ya,
Marcando principio y final,
Para-pa
Y justo cuando empiezo a cantar,
El mundo comienza a girar,
La primavera queda atrás,
Y los tonos cambian ya
No se que quedará,
Tampoco que es lo que se irá,
No se, no se que es lo que quedará.
Pero nada, nada se detendrá.
