Multi-layered version of Bastille’s Pompeii recorded for Bose ‘Urban Conductor’ experience
Singer-songwriter Ella Eyre has collaborated with renowned composer David Arnold to blend their distinctive styles of music and record a track for the Bose ‘Urban Conductor’, an immersive live experience, to take place in London and Manchester.
The track, a cover of Pompeii by Bastille, featured exclusively in the Urban Conductor experience, inviting consumers to create their own personal version of the song using the Bose SoundTrue™ headphones and then share it over social media. Fans also got the chance to hear the track live as Ella Eyre kicked off the experience by performing the track live at a VIP event at Ely’s Yard, Brick Lane on Thursday 2nd October 2014.
The Bose ‘Urban Conductor’ took visitors on an immersive music experience, including a gallery of digital content and visual art created by up and coming music artists.
In addition to the London venue, the ‘Bose Urban Conductor’ also travelled up North to music capital Manchester, where breaking indie artist Bipolar Sunshine entertained crowds on Thursday 9th October at the city’s Great Northern Warehouse.
Ella Eyre said, “I've worked with a range of musicians in the past but collaborating with David Arnold has been a truly unique and fun experience. He's an incredible character and I've really enjoyed working closely together, applying our music styles and creating a track that is distinctive and will be enjoyed by our fan base.”
David Arnold said “I’ve been involved in many exciting and challenging projects throughout my career, from creating soundtracks for the James Bond films to curating and writing the score for the London 2012 Olympics, but this latest venture with Ella Eyre and Bose has been a unique experience. I think we've managed to create something idiosyncratic which blends many styles of music alongside those for which we are more well-known and I hope everyone is as excited about the result as I am.”
