History

The idea of making a tribute album to the Chilean television series 31 minutes arose in Mexico, a country where the program achieved popularity. Ro Velázquez proposed to make an album tribute to the directors of the series, "as a pilgrim idea", Being finally finalized.
In 2009 the rumors of the realization of the album began, And in three months thirty groups were recording, which was the reason to divide the album into two. It was finally released on December 15, 2009, on Mexican and American record stores. Mexican and Chilean artists such as Ximena Sariñana, Francisca Valenzuela, Los Bunkers, María Daniela y Su Sonido Lasser, Natalia Lafourcade, Tepetokio, Belanova, Pedropiedra and Chancho en Piedra were part of the project, That in weeks sold about 5000 copies in Mexico. The songs were published on iTunes, And it was expected to launch a special edition in Chile or bring the album, a proposal that was never fulfilled.
The compact included a cardboard disc, which promoted the exchange for an EP with discarded songs from the first edition, being able to be made from the first of January 2010 in the Mixup record stores. Promotional tours were planned for Chile and Mexico, but this didn't happen either. It was not until the end of 2010, that a second edition was published, consisting of two albums. The first contained the 14 songs of the 2009 album, and the second, the 6 songs of the exchangeable EP, 2 new tributes, interpreted by Vicente Gayo and Astro, and 10 video clips made by the same artists. The dissemination of this version was in charge of the Universal label, but the record company did not put the expected interest.
