The Color Of Cyan creates emotive instrumental music seamlessly merging Cinematic Post-Rock, Ambient textures, and moving orchestral arrangements. Their sound is defined not only by its intensity but by its fragility – music that embraces both beauty and devastation, subtlety and scale.
Their 2021 debut full-length album, “Agape,” introduced this identity with haunting clarity. It is a multi-layered album that patiently builds in pressure and impact while heading squarely toward monolithic detonation.
With 2023’s “Egress,” the band refined that approach further, guiding each song with emotional precision and depth. Through delicate layering, the string quartet in “Egress” became a study of introspective emotion, with layered harmonies sweeping like wind, capturing the ache of departure, change, and reflection.
Now, with their third studio album, “As Human,” The Color Of Cyan expands their sound further with organic and abstract compositions that are central to the record’s identity – from the swelling resilience of “Hail The Mountains” to the cathartic tension of “Oubao Moin,” the album feels like a film without words – an exploration of what it means to be fragile, to endure, and to feel deeply.
The Color Of Cyan continues to chart its path through instrumental music. Across each release, they invite listeners into vast emotional landscapes – where chaos and calm coexist, and humanity is both questioned and celebrated.
