@LouisAnslow No - just plain old “I” 😉

[Peter Chilvers @peterchilvers]

Thrilled to have played a part in combining 137,294 voices. And to have been officially declared a wizard.

[Coldplay @coldplay]

In November 2023, we asked Coldplay fans to add their voices to a new song, ONE WORLD, by uploading themselves singing Ahhhhh for a few seconds.

Within a week, we had received 137,204 unique recordings, from 207 different countries / territories.

This cornucopia of voices was then brought together by the wizardry of Peter Chilvers to form a very special vocal arrangement on ONE WORLD, which you can hear at the end of our new album Moon Music.

Everyone who wished to be credited is included in the list at https://t.co/Bx2dnClCBI

137,204 thankyous to all of you who turned this dream into a stereophonic reality.

October 2024 marks the 16th anniversary of Bloom. It is remarkable for an app to be 16 years old and still be part of people’s lives in these fast moving times.

The Bloom audio recording is now available on Amazon Music + the new Android version of the app will launch very soon

@gardenerBry @mattstevensloop @TimBowness @BurningShed @burningshednews It’s a rather noble 16 years old now! It should still work on any iPhone though, have you searched your purchased apps?

[Brian Eno @brianeno]

@AlohaBry @TimBowness I think it was an iced over footpath, tinted blue, taking more than a little inspiration from Carl Glover’s design for “Surfacing”.

Hard to believe that Bloom is 15 years old today. I think it’s one of the few apps from the early days of the App Store that’s still available. Happy birthday, Bloom!

[Brian Eno @brianeno]

15 years ago today, Brian Eno and Peter Chilvers announced their app Bloom.

"Bloom is an endless music machine, a music box for the twenty-first century. You can play it and you can watch it play itself." - Brian Eno

Enjoy the apps on your iPhone, iPad and now on your Mac.
