Days by Jan Wagner, Dimitri Käch

Days - Jan Wagner / Dimitri Käch

The origin of "Days" lies on the coast near Porto do Son, where Jan Wagner and Dimitri Käch met. There, they surfed together for a few days and listened to the ocean. They agreed to go to the studio together once the summer was over. This resulted in the first album "Porto Do Son" which they wrote and recorded in just four days. A year later, they planed to meet again at the Atlantic, eagerly sending music voice memos back and forth. Then came the 2020 lockdown. The longing remained. From this, "Days" emerged. They continued to exchange voice memos, later sharing recording sessions in Dropbox, sending musical notes back and forth. Daily feelings, ocean dreams. The world around Jan and Dimitri slowly changed, day by day. The memories of the time in Porto Do Son remained. The ups and downs of everyday life and the tides of life played into the music. They continued to work on the voice memos add to them, Jan from Berlin, Dimitri from Zurich. Later, they met on occasions for joint sessions in Berlin, Zurich, Scheer.
Over the span of three years, the album "Days" was created. It tells the story of a musical "pen friendship," a deep connection through their shared love for the wild Atlantic and the warm light of longing.
