The title of the album was intended to provoke thought – to get people thinking what exactly “Time is Color” means. With this album, Cédric Hanriot wanted to share his own perception of time to him that meant time is closely related to color. Time can be seen as an objective thing. It is something we all know – we have clocks and calendars – but there’s also a subjective side, because every human being perceives time differently, depending on certain situations and moments in life. We can perceive a moment as long or short, for instance, whereas “objective” time is not so abstract. That thought really got him to try to write tunes that would translate these thoughts and feelings into music.The result: a powerful jazz/hip hop/urban sound. Between acoustic instruments (piano, double bass, drums) and electronic textures, the music of this project has an almost cinematic dimension.
