Ralph Maten - Colours (CD)With his seventh solo album, Ralph Maten proves once again that he is not nicknamed The Velvet Man for nothing. He spent a year working on the album: writing songs, composing lyrics, and gathering ideas. He recorded and sang everything himself, and even produced it himself in his own studio. Here, his own compositions flow calmly, with a touch of jazz, into the mixing desk and are like a balm to the ears. Ten of the 10 tracks are entirely his own.
