As a music producer, Fede has worked with a diverse range of artists, including Estela Stier, Agustín Donati, Audrey ii, Gal Musette, Emily Kate Boyd, Mauro Meloni, Leonardo Parra Castillo, and more. He was also the producer behind the viral children's music phenomenon "El Pollito Pio" and "La Vaca Lola," which amassed billions of views on YouTube.
