Aries

When Luis Miguel set out to create Aries, released in 1993, he was coming off the back of a resounding success with Romance, an album that had revitalized the bolero genre and sold millions of copies worldwide, even earning gold certifications in places like Brazil and the United States. However, the artist sought to explore other sounds, distancing himself from classic ballads to delve back into a style reminiscent of his earlier work: a mix of pop, jazz, dance, and R&B touches. The gestation of Aries was an intense process; Luis Miguel was deeply involved in every stage, from the selection of songs and melodies to production, working with composers such as Kiko Cibrián, Rudy Pérez, David Foster, and Juan Luis Guerra. The recording, which began in July 1992, spanned nearly a year, marked by challenges such as a considerable budget, the loss of his father, and an appendectomy, but the result was an album that aimed to reflect his personal vision.
