Overview

• Nelson Vallejos González’s 2024 book Te conozco de otra vida draws from interviews and archives to uncover Gustavo Cerati’s intermittent residencies in Santiago during the 1990s.
• Research shows that Cerati settled in Chile around the pregnancies of his children with Cecilia Amenábar, composing demos for his 1993 solo album Amor Amarillo in Las Condes.
• His involvement with electronic group Plan V resulted in two albums in 1996 and 1998, providing early support to Chile’s nascent electronic music scene.
• The book positions Cerati’s Chilean period as crucial to his artistic evolution and highlights its impact on modernizing the country’s rock and electronic culture.
• On what would have been his 66th birthday, fans and collaborators have continued to mark the occasion with mass performances of "De música ligera" and new visualizers of his solo work.
