Whos heard of this Uruguayan singer? hes the one who won Best Song last year at the Oscars with "Al Otro Lado del Rio" for The Motorcycle Diaries.
(so many capital letters).

his music is chill, sort of ambient,bossa novish, lots of melodic guitars, some electronic samples and sounds, some tango-ish accordion parts, to go along with his calm, soft, dry voice that sometimes turns into a whisper.

I have the albums "Eco" and "Sea"...some nice chill songs to check out from those are Todo se Transforma, Don de Fluir, Milonga del Moro Judio, and from "Sea", iŽd recommend Me Haces Bien (actually made popular by its use in a soup commercial some 4 years ago, commercial which semi launched him into fame), Crece, and Sea.
