blottboyy • “LIFE WITH COLOUR”

At the site of the new Cummins Global Headquarters building in downtown Indianapolis, once home to Market Square Arena, this site acts as an aural memorial for the loss of the musician who performed his last live concert before an untimely death— Elvis Aaron Presley. This intersection of place and time marks an historic moment in popular music history. In LIFE WITH COLOUR, blottboyy draws out important rock and roll history of this perfectly manicured site today through the incorporation of excerpts from Elvis’ song “Blue Moon.” The track starts out mournful and picks up the pace to a dance-like track. This sonic action keeps history alive in the new age of listening in an ever changing urban context. blottboyy’s music builds from samples, draws from both hip-hop and dance music traditions, and creates a vibrant beat-driven landscape. LIFE WITH COLOUR captures a beautiful journey that shows happiness in life and sites of aural memory.

I don't need every Kronos performance to be one that shakes me to my essence, but I do always want them to be interesting. Kronos has been my gateway to discovering a lot of composers I never knew of before, so this one is worth checking out. Richard Weems
