हम 'काफे ताकवबा' में जब भी किसी नए गाने में अरेंजमेंट का मौका मिलता है, तो कुछ नया करने की कोशिश करते हैं। लेकिन गिटार सिर्फ मैं ही नहीं बजाता। जैसा कि रुबेन अल्बुरान कह रहे थे, अलग-अलग रास्तों को तलाशना हमारे लिए खुद को ज़िंदा महसूस करने का, या कुछ अलग करने का एक तरीका है।
We in Cafe Tacvba try different things every time there's an arrangement opportunity with a new song. But I'm not the only one who plays guitar. As Rubén Albarrán was saying, exploring distinct paths is a way for us to feel alive, or feel like we're doing something different.

काफे ताकवबा वही संगीत बनाती है जो हमारे भीतर से स्वाभाविक रूप से निकलता है। शुरुआत से ही हमने वही किया जो हम चाहते थे और लोगों को इसमें दिलचस्पी भी आई। जनता को हमारा संगीत पसंद आया और इंडस्ट्री की तरफ से बिना किसी बाधा के हम आगे बढ़ पाए - खैर, तब जब वह रिकॉर्ड इंडस्ट्री हुआ करती थी। मुझे नहीं पता कि उस दौर के अन्य बैंड्स का सफर कैसा रहा, लेकिन हमें यह आज़ादी ज़रूर मिली थी।
Cafe Tacvba make the music that naturally comes out of us. Since the beginning we've done what we wanted and people were interested. The public liked it and we were able to grow without any issues from the industry - well, when that record industry existed. I don't know how it went for other bands of the time, but we had that liberty.

'के नो', काफे ताकवबा का नवीनतम सिंगल है, जिसमें साठ के दशक की कुछ ऐसी विशेषताएँ हैं जो हमने पहले कभी नहीं कीं, और 'मातांदो' में भी कुछ ऐसे तत्व हैं जिनसे हमारा पहले सामना नहीं हुआ था। मेरे लिए यह कहना मुश्किल है कि "इसका प्रभाव यहाँ से है" या "यह वहाँ से आया है।" शायद बाहर से सुनने वाले किसी व्यक्ति के लिए प्रभावों को पहचानना और सुनना आसान होता है।
"Que No," Cafe's Tacvba latest single, has Sixties characteristics which we haven't done before, and "Matando" also has certain elements we hadn't come across. For me, it's difficult to say "it's this influence" or "it comes from there." Maybe it's easy for one to listen externally and identify influences.

मुझे क्लासिक रॉक सुनना पसंद है। मैं जानता हूँ कि काफे ताकवबा के सभी सदस्यों की पसंद और प्रभाव अलग-अलग हैं, जो कभी संगीत में झलकता है और कभी नहीं।
I like listening to classic rock. I know that all Cafe Tacvba members have different influences and sometimes they show and other times they don't.

शायद आजकल उभरने वाले बैंड्स के पास ऐसा सही माहौल या संदर्भ नहीं है जो उन्हें आगे बढ़ने में मदद कर सके। हम एक ऐसे सही समय पर पैदा हुए थे जब सब कुछ घटित हो रहा था। 'रॉक एन एस्पनोल' के प्रति लोगों में जबरदस्त दिलचस्पी थी और यह हर जगह छाया हुआ था। श्रोता, रिकॉर्ड लेबल और मीडिया - सभी की इसमें रुचि थी, और सब कुछ हमारे अनुकूल था। हम ऐसा संगीत पेश करना चाहते थे जो हमारे बेहद करीब हो, और आज भी ऐसा ही है।
Perhaps the bands emerging nowadays don't have the right context around them to help them grow. We were born at the right moment where everything was happening. There was a great interest for rock en español and it was everywhere. The audience, labels and the media were all interested; everything was there. We wanted to present music that was very personal to us, and it continues being that way.

हम काफे ताकवबा में खुद को किसी प्रतिनिधि के रूप में नहीं देखते। जब हम नया संगीत बनाने जाते हैं, तो हमें लगता है कि हमारी रचनाएँ तब ज़्यादा प्रामाणिक होती हैं जब हम केवल अपने बारे में सोचते हैं। हम यह नहीं सोचते कि "चलो हम प्रतिनिधि बनकर समाज की मौजूदा स्थिति को दुनिया के सामने रखें।" लेकिन जब परफॉर्म करने की बात आती है और हम दूसरे देशों में जाते हैं, जैसे कि न्यूयॉर्क, तो बहुत से लोग हमारे पास आते हैं — ऐसे लोग जो अपने देश से दूर रह रहे हैं — और तब हम उनके लिए एक पहचान का प्रतीक बन जाते हैं। हमारे शो एक तरह का अनुष्ठान बन जाते हैं, और हमारी प्रस्तुतियाँ उनकी पहचान का माध्यम बन जाती हैं।
We don't think of ourselves in Cafe Tacvba as representatives. When we go and make new material, we feel that our creations are more authentic if we think of ourselves. We don't say, "Let's be the representatives and show the moment that our society is in." But when it comes to performing and we visit other countries, like New York, many people approach us, people who are outside of their own country, and we become a referent. Our shows become this sort of ritual, and our performances become that moment of identity.

मुझे ठीक से नहीं पता कि हम में से हर एक बैंड में खुद को किस रूप में देखता है, लेकिन हम पहचान के इस अनुष्ठान का हिस्सा बन चुके हैं जहाँ लोग काफे ताकवबा को एक मेक्सिकन चीज़ के रूप में, मेक्सिको के प्रतिनिधित्व के रूप में देखते हैं। हमारे गाने, हमारा संगीत और कॉन्सर्ट में दिखने वाली ऊर्जा। कभी-कभी मुझे हैरानी होती है कि इसमें शायद हमारा कोई बहुत बड़ा फैसला नहीं होता, बल्कि कोई ऐसी ताकत है जो हमें इस तरफ खींचती है। कोई ऐसी चीज़ जो इन सबसे परे है।
I'm not sure how each one of us sees ourselves in the band, but we're being part of this ritual of identity where people see Café Tacvba as something Mexican, as a representation of the Mexican. The songs, the music, the energy given in a concert. Sometimes I question that there's not much decision from our part, like there's something that leads us to this. Something beyond.
