Amatoria is Federico Aubele’s newest and most personal album yet.  Inspired by the classic and passionate sounds of bolero and Argentinian tango, Aubele infuses his distinctive Spanish guitar sound with sultry vocals and subtle electronic beats to create a unique collage of intimate love songs.  Entirely self produced, Amatoria features vocal collaborations with Natalia Clavier, Sabina Sciubba of The Brazilian Girls, and Miho Hatori of Cibo Matto. 

Federico's newest offering through ESL Music is Maria Jose, a 12" single featuring remixes from Toy Hernandez and DJ Spooky. The single is now available for download or purchase of 12" vinyl from ESL's webshop. Hot on the heels of being nominated in the New York Post's annual "Best Of" round-up, the LA Times selected Panamericana as one of the top 5 albums of the year in addition to KCRW's Nic Harcourt (Morning Becomes Eclectic) including the release in his 2007 "Top Albums" list. Last fall, Federico was Nic's guest and performed live in his studio .

Panamericana was also included in the iTunes Latino "Best of 2007" end of year list, with Federico being invited to create a celebrity iTunes playlist following soon after. Single 'La Esquina' is available now on 12" Vinyl with remixes from Nickodemus and Ursula 1000.

Another vinyl release 'Maria Jose' is available now featuring remixes from Toy Hernandez (Sonidero Nacional) and Subliminal Kid, DJ Spooky.
