Gustavo Cerati - -grandes Exitos- -2011- Apr 2026

For a new listener in 2026, this album serves as the perfect emergency room: 14 tracks that inject the essence of Cerati’s solo career directly into the bloodstream.

Unlike the sprawling, fan-centric Fuerza Natural tour or the conceptual ambition of Bocanada , this compilation is precisely what its title promises: a direct, radio-friendly collection of Cerati’s most accessible solo work. Spanning from his 1999 electronic debut Bocanada to the lush rock of Fuerza Natural (2009), the album strips away the experimental B-sides and focuses on the hits.

On a long drive at sunset, with the windows down, singing “Adiós” at the top of your lungs—not as a goodbye, but as a thank you. Gustavo Cerati remains alive in every riff, every synth pad, and every echo of his voice. Grandes Éxitos is just the beginning. Lyrically, songs like "Crimen" (" No es un
