In 1995 they released their debut album, A Typical and Autoctonal Venezuelan Dance Band, which was a moderate success in Venezuela. The band was comprised of Julio Briceño a.k.a. "Chulius" (vocals, percussion, songwriting), José Luis Pardo a.k.a. "Cheo" or "DJ Afro" (guitar, songwriting), Armando Figueredo a.k.a. "Odnam" (keyboards, songwriting), Mauricio Arcas a.k.a "Maurimix" (congas, percussion, songwriting), José Rafael Torres a.k.a "Catire" (bass), and Juan Manuel Roura a.k.a. "Mamulo" (drums, percussion). They played in clubs around Caracas for the next two years and then relocated to New York in 1997. David Byrne's Luaka Bop label signed the group and released The New Sound of the Venezuelan Gozadera in 1998. Two years later came their third release, AREPA 3000: A Venezuelan Journey into Space. In 2003 they released their masterpiece, "The Venezuelan Zinga Son, Vol. 1" (Luaka Bop released the album in 2004 in the U.S.) which was nominated for the Latin Grammy in the category of best Alternative Latin Album. 2005 saw the release of their collection of obscure venezuelan covers, "Super Pop Venezuela" in their native country and released independently on 2006 in the U.S.A. through their very own record label "Gozadera Records". "Superpop Venezuela" was also nominated for the Grammy in 2007. Currently Los Amigos Invisibles are constantly touring the globe and producing their upcoming album.

In May 2008 Los Amigos Invicibles released "Una noche tan linda como esta" a live recording from their 15th celebration concert at Universidad Central de Venezuela's Aula Magna on Feb 14, 2006. The set consists of two CD and a DVD of this concert.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Los Amigos Invisibles's song "Mami Te Extragno" express the longing and nostalgia that the singer feels for their mother. The repetition of the phrase "te extraño" throughout the song emphasizes the depth of this feeling and the strong emotional connection between the singer and their mother. The use of the second person pronoun "ti" also adds to this personal and intimate relationship that is being described.

Furthermore, the song's use of the word "mami" instead of "madre" or "mom" adds a layer of cultural specificity and familiarity. In Latin American culture, it is common for children to refer to their mothers using affectionate nicknames like "mami". This highlights the cultural context and personal nature of the song.

Overall, "Mami Te Extragno" is a beautiful tribute to the strength of the bond between a mother and child, and the ways in which that bond can persist even when separated by distance or time.
