Alternative Artwork used only on
the EP's release via Bandcamp.
"All I Wanted was to have a good time, I had such a wonderful time but, I feel nostalgic and empty, so, I tried, in this song, to express what I really was feeling, I wanted to pretend that I was happy but deep inside I was so sad. So, this song is a fake... a fake that makes me smile and realize that I can't be happy if I keep thinking of this guy who inspired me to write this... so, something must change"

"Actually, I am working on my second album, but when Sebastián comes to me and talk me about a new record, I just can't say NO... So, I am writing about romances and falls, I wanna release a little of hate in this song, it makes me free, I think so, My new album is more sad, so I wanna try to rejoice this piece of dance and electronic music."

Arias decided to make a new album in september of 2013, he was looking for the tools to start recordings and the first included on the project was Wilmer Garcia who worked with Arias in two records from Dark Of Me; Arias showed a first concept to Garcia for the general album and in the homemade studio Wilmer said to Arias he wanted to make a song about that concept, about the new color, the new xperience, so in december Arias wrote the song and produced it with Garcia at IMG. The released version was recorded in january and was recorded at same time that the spanish version of the song, ''Un Nuevo Color''.

THE ACOUSTIC ALBUM AND THE ELECTROC ALBUM

With the release of Other Color as second promotional song there were something new. Arias wanted to make and indietroc album so different of the previous work, Dark Of Me, but he decided to make the album with the usual tools, UPCOMING was released in two versions and it's clear that the acoustic version included on INKS is better than the remix, so Arias knew that IMG is better on the guitars side. Other Color only will have the guitar versions like other confirmed songs: 'Give Me A Smile', 'SEX'. Etc.
