Colores Santos (Spanish for "Holy Colors") is an album released by Argentine musicians Gustavo Cerati and Daniel Melero under the name Cerati/Melero in 1992. The album was recorded and released previous to Soda Stereo's album Dynamo (also influenced by Melero's state-of-the-art musical exploration), at the peak of the band's popularity. The album has a strong electronic influence which would inform Dynamo and help kickstart the electronic rock scene in Argentina. Allmusic critic Iván Adaime wrote that "Somehow this album was like a UFO in the Argentine early-'90s rock scene".
