Contemporary double bass music that blurs the boundaries between jazz, classics, orient und occident, ancient music, and electronica. This album has been inspired during concerts during the blue hour, where Mich Gerber celebrates this magic time between day and night, as he plays concerts along shorelines.

Mich Gerber is a solo acoustic double bass player with a very distinct way of playing his instrument: by plucking, bowing and using the instruments body as a percussive tool. He forms, with his live loops, a solo acoustic 'bass orchestra' and creates layers of music, weaving the whole into a rich rhythmic and melodic soundscape. Even though his work has contemporary feel, he explores ancient and world music to achieve his unique sound.
