Release and performance

The album was released in June 2001, serving as the follow up to 1998's debut album Sunmachine , which was released following the successful release of debut single "Sunchyme" in 1997. By the time In Full Colour was released, Dario G had become a solo project of Paul Spencer following the departure of previous band members Scott Roser and Stephen Spencer had left in order to pursue other projects out-with Dario G. [1] It's release was preceded by the release of its debut single "Dream to Me", a re–worked version of "Dreams" by Irish rock band The Cranberries. It was a commercial success for Dario G, reaching number one in Romania, [2] and reached number four in Scotland, [3] and nine in the United Kingdom and Germany. [4] [5]

Commercially, though, In Full Colour did not perform as strongly as its predecessor, Sunmachine did. It failed to chart in markets where Sunmachine had achieved moderate commercial success, such as the United Kingdom and Scotland, despite the relatively strong performance of "Dream to Me" in the UK and Scottish Singles Charts. It did, however, achieve moderate success on continental European albums charts. In Austria, it peaked at number forty one on the Austrian Albums Charts, where it spent a total of five weeks on the Austrian charts. [6] In Switzerland, it peaked at number sixty-six on the Swiss Albums Charts, spending five weeks on the charts in total, and in Germany, it spent one week on the German Albums Charts following a debut and peak performance of number fifty-eight.
