Color Theory announces release date of double A-side song

One-man synthwave act Color Theory has announced the release of ‘This Whole Nothing’ with B-side ‘Juggernaut’ on 13 March via 11th Records. ‘This Whole Nothing’ premiered via Atwood Magazine. His work has received close to 3 million plays across streaming platforms. Winning the grand prize at the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, three of his songs were featured in the Just Dance video game series and two in the Rock Band video game series, plus several song placements on MTV’s The Real World. Those are just some of Color Theory’s notable achievements. Color Theory has also been featured in several interviews, including Vehlinggo, MusicTech, and Dope Cause We Said. Finding the brooding undercurrents from Depeche Mode, The Cure, and Baths oddly uplifting, Color Theory pursues a style he calls “melancholy synthwave”. The resulting sound sits in close comparison to Kavinsky, The Midnight and Gunship, however, if you listen closely you’ll hear a unique style that is clearly his own. With lyrical ambiguities, Color Theory creates a world of nostalgically transfigured memories which allow the listener to place their own emotions into the music without being overly guided by thought. Finding inspiration in blank space and filling it with electronic embellishments and gently rolling synths, ‘This Whole Nothing’ is an exercise in contemplation. 

Color Theory reveals a little more about the inspiration behind the single: “This Whole Nothing” is one of those songs that people will read into as they will. The lyrics are just vague enough to be universal. My inspiration was the spacious emptiness one experiences when the voice of the mind quiets and the world can be seen as it truly is.”
