- Beatsound Loverboy is the debut studio album by Portuguese singer-songwriter Slimmy. Slimmy started working on the album with his longtime producers Quico Serrano and . Other two producers joined Slimmy for the recording of the album: Saul Davies and Rodolfo Cardoso. The relationship between Slimmy and the other producers was always good and Slimmy feels that that provided a good production for the album. He mentioned that he started to compose and write songs in 2000, than record them and play them alive. However, the project only began to take concrete steps, when Slimmy, in 2004, moved to London. The album was released on September 17, 2007 in Portugal. The album was released in two formats: the physical edition, featuring 11 tracks; and the digital edition also featuring 11 tracks. In summer 2007 Slimmy returned to Portugal to promote his projects because he felt that he wasn't recognized in his country. Slimmy said that "honestly, I think it came out better. During these years there were many times when I hesitated whether I was going in the right direction if that was where I wanted to be, but then when I saw the final product and liked it, it had a minimal importance. Honestly, I like to listen to my music. The work exceeded my expectations." The album is essentially an electronic rock album. It has a lot of "rock attitude". Slimmy declared that he wanted to explore more things about electronic music and wanted to work with an English producer in the album, Mark Turner, which, according to Slimmy, gave "a different glow to the album". "Beatsound Loverboy" was also voted the 3rd best national album of the past 15 years, the choice made by Antena 3 listeners, who decided to mark the 15th anniversary choosing from a list of 100, 15 albums representative, between 1994 and 2009 by several generations of national music. His work was filled with the nominations for "Golden Globe Newcomer of the Year" category and for the "MTV Europe Music Awards" in the category of "Best Portuguese Act". Slimmy's most significant promotion marked the beginning of "Sex and Love Tour", starting in February 2008 at the "Industrial Nightclub" in Porto. As part of the promotion process, several songs were used as part of soundtracks of TV series or TV advertisements. Three singles were released from the album, both of them managed to enter to Portugal Singles Top 50 Chart. Critical response to the album was generally mixed, with critics praising Quico Serrano and Mark Turner's polished production. Blitz, however, gave the album a more mixed review. "Beatsound Loverboy" was a commercial disappointment, the album didn't manage to chart on any official chart company to date. Four music videos were released from the album: "Beatsound Loverboy", "Show Girl", "Bloodshot Superstar" and "You Should Never Leave Me (Before I Die)". (en)
