About the album


Days Of Summer gone is an almost entirely acoustic album carrying the melancholic atmosphere of autumn. At times dreamy, warm and gentle, at other times twisted, strange and dark. The album deals with topics such as wonder, longing, paranoia, loss, transiency..

This album is once again very different. First of all because it's mostly acoustic instruments. After the electronic, modern 'City Of Light' I wanted to go back to a more organic approach. There are some very talented guest musicians on this record, playing strings, brass and wind instruments. The arrangements are pretty detailed and colorful I think, and in terms of composition I tried to write more extended compositions rather than songs." - Christiaan Bruin
