In this blog, you won’t find boring technical jargon or endless album reviews that maybe don’t interest you. Here, we want to do something different: to tell music as emotion, as a journey within ourselves.

And to do that, I want to tell you a story.

It was September 2023. My friend Harry and I were sitting at our usual café, the one in the square that has always been our meeting spot.
Right in front of us, renovation work on the square was starting — a change you could feel in the air.
Harry looked at me, took a sip of his coffee, and said quietly: “Today is just the beginning. But just like this square is changing, I will change too.”

And you know what? Now that the square is finished, Harry has changed a lot too.

That day, between chats and coffee, Harry confessed he wanted to start a YouTube channel entirely dedicated to the double bass — the instrument he had started playing a few months earlier.
I looked at him a bit incredulously: “Come on, the double bass? How many views can you get with such a niche instrument?”

But he calmly replied: “I really don’t care about views at all.”

Harry has always had music in his blood. As a child, he tried almost every instrument possible — from the guitar his parents gave him when he was twelve, to the ukulele during university.
And so, with patience, he started posting one video a day, for more than a year (yes, we’re almost at 400!).
The numbers?
They’re not miraculous yet.
But he doesn’t care.
The double bass is a special instrument: rarely in the spotlight, often staying in the background, keeping time in a jazz band.

And yet, among thousands of fast, noisy videos, Harry wants to bring a bit of calm, lightness, and carefreeness.
His message? “Less is More” — as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, an architect who really understood simplicity, once said.
Cut away the unnecessary, get to the essence, with clarity and elegance.
And this is what ‘Justdoublebass’ wants to be: a journey into music that speaks to the heart, a message of simplicity and authenticity.

It’s not for everyone, we know that. But if you also love to pause for a moment, breathe, and listen to what remains when you strip away all the background noise… then you’re in the right place.

Enjoy the journey.
