In November 2002 Cerati released his third studio album "Siempre es Hoy" ("It's Always Today"). Cerati enlisted the help of producer/ engineer Sacha Triujeque and Antonio "Toy" Hernández of the Mexican Hip hop group Control Machete. The album was a departure from the slow tempo, Trip hop of "Bocanada" and "+Bien", and the dramatic orchestration of "11 Episodios Sinfónicos". The songs on the album varied from pop/rock to radio friendly electronic rock. The tour for "Siempre es Hoy" extended as far as New York and Chicago.
