Background

Juan Luis Guerra stated that his style of music was influenced by The Beatles, American rock, folk, R&B, jazz, and traditional Dominican music. [4] His style of songwriting has been known to take on a poetic feel and address romantic and social issues. [5] Guerra started his career with the release of Soplando. His fifth studio album, Bachata Rosa (1990), received a Grammy Award for Best Tropical Album. [6] KAREN, a Dominican-independent record label, [7] was involved with Guerra's previous albums and helped produced Ni Es Lo Mismo Ni Es Igual. According to Guerra, he remained with KAREN because they gave him the opportunity to set up his own recording schedule. [5]

Ni Es Lo Mismo Ni Es Igual is the first studio album of Juan Luis Guerra since 1994 Forgarate. The recording sessions was set to start in February 1996, but Guerra declined due personal issues, conversion to christianity and for the a break of the music industry. [8] [9] On Late 1996, it was announced that Guerra comeback to the studio to record a new acoustic album. On a press note in November 1996, the artist stated that following of the consolidation of his business (radio station Viva FM and TV station Mango TV) is time to return to the studio as early of 1997 and record two albums. The first album will be acoustic music, according to Guerra in press statements, where it will include meringues, but "treated in a different way." The other will be romantic themes. [10] Also, explained that "I really want to make an acoustic production, in which I can play some songs that I have saved. Even work on some meringues treated in a different way. I have always thought about that and I think it is time to do it." [11]

Writing and composition

For Ni Es Lo Mismo Ni Es Igual, Guerra continues his aforementioned take on songs about love and social issues. "El Niágara en Bicicleta" takes on the impossibility of obtaining medical treatment in a third world hospital, and compares it to crossing Niagara Falls on a bicycle. He based the song on a trip to a hospital in which the equipment were either unavailable or broken down. [12] The song "Mi PC" combines lyrics and the sound of merengue to compare a woman to a personal computer. [13] "Quisiera" is a salsa theme song that was co-written by Guerra and Colombian songwriter Kike Santander. [14] Guerra also produced ballad songs for the album such as "Testimonio" and "Amapola". [15] In addition, Guerra remade "Amor de Conuco" from his album, Mientras Más Lo Pienso...Tú (1987), [16] into a ballad version.

Singles

Four singles were released from the album. The first single, "Mi PC", reached No. 1 on Hot Latin Tracks and became his second song to reach No. 1 on the chart.
