Love Is Like Oxygen

octave plateau presents: Shore of Love

A smooth jazz journey between Californian nostalgia and Berlin precision

Step into the warm soundscapes of Shore of Love – a new smooth jazz album full of emotion, depth, and sun-drenched memories. Born from the creative synergy between charismatic vocalist Lara and composer Gerhard, this work transports listeners to a timeless space – somewhere between the California coastlines of the 1990s and the creative studios of Berlin in 2025.

Each song on Shore of Love tells a story of longing, fulfilled romance, and bittersweet remembrance. Lara's voice – velvety, expressive, and delicately vulnerable – blends effortlessly with Gerhard’s cinematic and nuanced compositions. This is not an album that shouts for attention; it quietly finds its way into your heart.

The production is a loving tribute to the best of both worlds: vintage warmth meets modern clarity. Recorded using classic analog equipment, including the legendary Moog One, the iconic PPG Wave, and, in select moments, the rare and evocative Fairlight CMI II+, each instrument lends a unique voice to the album’s sonic palette.

These analog textures are carried by state-of-the-art digital production tools, merging old soul with modern finesse. Berlin provided not only the technical backdrop but also the creative calm needed to shape this deeply intimate project.

Shore of Love is not just another album – it’s a musical diary, a love letter to the past, and a modern milestone in smooth jazz. Perfect for warm summer nights, quiet mornings, or any moment when music should be more than just background.

Here are the lyrics:

[Verse]
Under the moonlight, where secrets are laid,
A rendezvous blooms in the night's sweet cascade.
The saxophone whispers, the piano does tease,
We’re caught in the rhythm, a jazz lover's breeze.

[Chorus]
Swing me closer, let the melody play,
Wrap me in your arms, let the music sway.
Every note a promise, every chord a kiss,
In this swinging serenade, we find our bliss.

[Verse 2]
The bassline strolls, with a sultry refrain,
A lover's duet in the warm night's domain.
The world fades away as our feet find the floor,
Two souls entangled, craving more and more.

[Chorus]
Swing me closer, let the melody play,
Wrap me in your arms, let the music sway.
Every note a promise, every chord a kiss,
In this swinging serenade, we find our bliss.

[Bridge]
Oh, the candles flicker, but the fire’s within,
The rhythm ignites where the night does begin.
A dance of devotion, a harmony true,
In the heart of the music, it's just me and you.

[Chorus]
Swing me closer, let the melody play,
Wrap me in your arms, let the music sway.
Every note a promise, every chord a kiss,
In this swinging serenade, we find our bliss.

Swing closer
