(5 Customer Reviews)
Though Colorful You is the debut production LP for Miguel Migs, dance fans who've ever heard a Naked Music production won't be very surprised by the sound. Drawing on nearly every R&B form of the late '70s and early '80s (disco, jazz-funk, quiet storm, even a little early-'80s synth pop), Migs' work certainly isn't groundbreaking, but it is frequently breathtaking -- a result of his studio expertise and ability to trademark a sound that other artists and labels often emulate but can never touch. After an introduction, the first three tracks on Colorful You are exotic deep house jams with vocals by Naked Music regulars like Lisa Shaw as well as a newcomer, none other than Joel "Jo Jo" Hailey, half of R&B hitmakers K-Ci & JoJo. After a down-tempo break with "Waiting" and "Breakin It Down," Migs brings it back up for a few more sparkling productions. For better and for worse, Colorful You (and Naked Music productions in general) polish to a fine sheen the template for a path of dance music that's been followed from disco to house to acid jazz to chill-out, doing it much better than most but occasionally relying too much on superficial textures instead of musical depth. ~ John Bush

Nice chill out Another great work by Miguel Migs, this one is smooth and jazzy, perfect to chill out!! Submitted by Andy (Rio De Janeiro) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
He's the king of mixing house music! Ther's really not a lot to say about this album exept it's a great album. What I like about house music is that it's not music to rock the dance floor, it's music to be listened to at home, either by yourself, or when your having a party. What strikes me about this album is that tracks 3, 5, 8, and 11 all feature an extreemly tallented vocallist named Lisa shaw. I can't wait for her own album, she's so awesome. Whether your a dj, a musician, or just a music lover, you'll love this album! Submitted by Daniel (Southington CT) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

most awesome migs If you thought his other releases for Naked Music were good wait until you hear this one. Absolutely flawless production and exquisite new songs performed by the incredible Lisa Shaw. Not only is this his best yet, its the best cd out there in the past few months. This may just be the best house music release of the year. Submitted by a reviewer (san francisco, ca, usa) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

$11.69 Too much of a good thing is, well, too much. Listen to the first cut on Blue Six's Beautiful Tomorrow and you'll think, hey, this is sweet: lounge-y warm house music, toasty synth washes that cascade atop a penetrating (but not intrusive) bottom end. ...

| | Ricardo Arjona Galeria Caribe CD (2000) Bonus Track
Colorful You album
$9.09 This album took a while to connect with the mainstream U.S. audience, making the Billboard pop charts quite a while after its initial release, but in the pop world sleepers are often the most substantive successes. Accordingly, GALERIA CARIBE finds Hispanic heartthrob Ricardo Arjona delivering his patented brand of Latin pop with unprecedented vigor. While Arjona is primarily a romantic crooner, as evidenced by GALERIA CARIBE's bounty of lush, crystalline ballads, he's not beyond getting into some uptempo Latin grooves. Throughout the album, Arjona shifts easily and elegantly from crooner mode into a percolating feel propelled by hints of everything from salsa and samba to hints of Cuban son. Consequently, the pan-Latin sound ...
