Californian Brian Hazard, the artist behind the Electronic project Color Theory, grew up listening to The Cure, Depeche Mode, and The Smiths. The brooding undercurrent of heartbreak, suffering, and alienation never brought him down. He found it oddly comforting, even uplifting.

With a Bachelor of Music degree in Piano Performance, he left Beethoven to pursue his inspiration.
