Editorial Reviews

Colorful You is alive with the confidence Miguel Migs has in his vibrant, emotional style, a chunky mix of sun-soaked melodies, Latin-flavored samples, and luxurious grooves. His model-quality good looks and the soulful, love-machine beats of records like Nude Tempo 1 have already distinguished Migs from the avalanche of similar, downtempo-minded DJs. Despite having less of a rhythmic thrust and a greater emphasis on traditional song structure than his previous work, Colorful You should continue Migs's ascendancy to the coveted realm of such chill music superstars as Thievery Corporation and Everything but the Girl. Not that the record doesn't move; tracks like "Think It Over" and "Days of Color" (both with frequent Migs collaborator vocalist Lisa Shaw) are the sort of juiced-up head-nodders that get a scantily clad crowd good and steamy. Still, it's the balladry of "One Wish for Me" and "Breakin' It Down" that show off Migs's assured touch with vinyl as well as his talent for picking out great hooks. --Matthew Cooke

3 out of 5 stars Nice backround music but nothing to get your blood boiling.......2007-02-02

Take heed: THIS CD IS NOT MIXED.

Also, to echo some other reviewers: this cd pales in comparison to Mig's other work. Some individual tracks are nice, but without a flow they feel a little lost and unloved. If you are diehard Migs fan, then sure, grab it. Otherwise support his other more worthy efforts.

As a sidenote: Why are so many of Mig's CDs so expensive? Ach!

3 out of 5 stars Good, not great, although I wouldnt start here.......2006-12-07

I love Miguel Mig's mixes, especially his live mixes and I really enjoyed 24th St Sounds. This is an unmixed CD of down tempo, relaxed deep house grooves, some a little more up tempo than others. While I thought it was good, and he may have done great production on it, it won't get high rotation in my collection as it doesn't have the sexy bass lines I've grown to love or the divas he so often introduces into the live mixes. I still much prefer his live mixed work to his recorded CDs, though I'd start with 24th St Sounds or the Naked Music CDs if I was buying a recorded CD. I'd be really disappoined if I'd paid full price for this.

5 out of 5 stars Great Addition.......2006-02-16

I'm new to "house" music and just downloaded this cd off itunes. I first heard Migs on Digitally imported and have loved all his stuff. It definatley is not a pure house album, but a fusion of chill house and sexy vocals. More of a relaxed listen than club jumper. Although some house reviews dislike this aspect, I prefer the more soothing beats and less repetative vocals. I'm a huge fan of The New Deal, who will always be a better show than any DJ, and therefor prefer them for my live experiences. However, I can't stop playing this album and am in the process of picking up more of his goods.

5 out of 5 stars I Love This CD!!!!!.......2005-02-10

I work at United Colors of Benetton my co workers and I "LOVE THIS CD" especially "Breakin It Down" and "One Wish For Me" When we hear those two songs come on we pump the volume and start dancing on the sales floor and our customers like it too. I had many people come to me asking about this CD. I LOVE THIS CD!!!!!

2 out of 5 stars Not Representative.......2004-11-23

If you're a fan of Migs' stuff on NRK, you will definitely not be so interested in this collection. Completely missing are those groovy bass lines that Migs does so well and what is left are a bunch of overly glossy diva trax that are pretty lightweight even by Naked standards. Check out his "City Sounds" or his own tracks on "24th Street Sounds" to get the essence of what Miguel Migs is all about.
