In 1996 they decided to go to Buenos Aires. In the previous winter León Gieco (one of the most eminent musicians from Argentina) had discovered them and invited them to produce a record under his management. During the year 1997 they started a tour and presented their first release "Los Tipitos".
Their second album "Cocrouchis" was produced in 1999 together with Edelmiro Molinari, Carlos García López and others. The CD was a success, later released by Tocka Discos (Popart).
The year 2000 could be decribed as their big success. Supported by the "Secretaría de Cultura de la Municipalidad de Villa Gesell" (Ministry of Education and the Arts in Villa Gesell) Los Tipitos managed to come up with an impressive show during the summer season, which brought them on the path to fame. 2001 they released the album "Vintage", which was produced by Pablo Romero and Eduardo Schmit (members of the band Árbol). With this record, as well as "Quién va a garpar todo esto? I&II", they proved their firm position in the Argentinian rock scene.
2002 they worked on the album "Contra los molinos" on which all tracks were recorded live. In the summer they went on tour to the most popular seaside resorts on the coast of Argentina.
Right after their return to Buenos Aires, Los Tipitos started preparing for their most important performance: in the cultural theater ND Ateneo. What was a success for the band, was soon well known across the country: both concerts had been completely sold out. In the summer 2004 they returned on their tour along the coast of Argentina, while they prepared for the recording of their seventh release. The production of "Armando Camaleón" was done by Pablo Guyot. In the same year they released "Primera grabación", 14 songs which had been originally recorded on audio tape.
During the year 2005 they released a few video clips, such as "Brujería" (the top-hit of the album "Armando Camaleón"), "Campanas en la noche" and "Algo", which was strangely enough recorded in a swimming pool. "Silencio" came out as well, which was performed live in April 2005 in the Gran Rex, Buenos Aires.
"TipitoRex Vivo" was produced in 2006, a collection of the best live recordings from the Gran Rex theater in Buenos Aires. The album was sold as CD-DVD. In the same year they recorded their own version of "Mil Horas", which was released on CD as tribute to Andrés Calamaro, Cantando al Salmón.
In 2006 they were nominated for the Gardel Prices and won in the category "Best Pop Album".
The latest album "Tan Real" was produced with Tweeny Gonzáles in 2007. It was recorded in June/July 2007 in the Circo Beat and El Pie studios and remastered in the USA under the management of Leos Zervos. The CD features guest stars like David Lebón, Claudio O’Connor, Javier Malosetti and "el Negro” García López.
With their new record they went again on tour within Argentina as well as along the Atlantic Coast of South America. The new album is supposed to be presented on 11th and 12th of April 2008 in the Opera Theater, Buenos Aires.
On February 20th 2008 the Gardel Prices were announced with Los Tipitos as nominees for the awards as "Best Pop Group" and "Best Production of the Year" of which they won the first one on March 26th 2008 in a ceremony in the Gran Rex Theater, Buenos Aires.

Mil Horas
Los Tipitos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hace tiempo que estoy
centado sobre esta piedra.
Yo me pregunto
para que sirve las guerras?
Tengo un coete en el pantalon,
y vos estas tan fria,
como la nieve a mi alrededor,
que ya no se que hacer.
La otra noche te espere
bajo la lluvia
dos horas,
mil horas,
como un perro...
y cuando llegastes me mirastes
y me dijistes:
Loco estas mojado,
ya no te quiero.
En el circo vos ya sos una estrella,
una estrella roja que todos se la imaginan.
Si te preguntan,
vos no me conocias.
Tengo un coete en el pantalon,
y vos estas tan fria,
como la nieve a mi alrededor,
y vos estas tan blanca,
que ya no se que hacer.
La otra noche te espere
bajo la lluvia
dos horas,
mil horas,
como un perro...
Y cuando llegastes me mirastes
y me dijistes:
loco,
estas mojado ya no te quiero.
The lyrics to Los Tipitos's song Mil Horas paint a picture of a lonely protagonist who is far away from home and sitting on a rock questioning the purpose of war. He is accompanied by a woman whom he is trying to warm up to but despite his attempts, she remains cold and distant. The singer expresses his feelings of confusion and helplessness as he tries to figure out what to do. He reflects on how he had waited for her for hours in the rain like a dog, only to be rejected upon her arrival. In the last verse, the woman is depicted as a circus star who everyone imagines to be a red star, but when asked about the singer, she denies knowing him. Despite his efforts to win her over, the woman remains indifferent and uninterested, leaving him feeling defeated and rejected.
The song Mil Horas is a powerful reflection of unrequited love, loneliness, and confusion. It is a story about a man who is struggling to make a connection with a woman who remains aloof and disinterested. The lyrics are relatable, and the music draws the listener in with its hauntingly beautiful melody, which complements the sentiments expressed in the song. The song's rhythm and beat are catchy, adding another layer of appeal to the song.

Al principio el piano reza:
Sentimentalmente para remediarlo
Voy a quedarme contigo para siempre
Pero puede que te encuentre últimamente
Entre tanto me confundo con la gente
Sentimentalmente nuestro por ahora
Es el nido que el olvido ha destruido
Y si el viento me devuelve a tus orillas
Serenamente, será dormido
Serenamente, será dormido
Para no olvidar!!!
Tranquilamente entra muy bien con Mil horas, la bateria de "Sin Documentos". Aguante Los Tipitos y Calamaro
