Dustin Wall One of the reasons I love Markus is I never exactly know what’s next. This is a rich collaborative project with purpose, to raise awareness and protect the biodiversity of the coastal rainforest in Brazil known as Mata Atlantica. I’m currently on my third spin of this record, and I just love the interplay between the diverse cast of musicians. Probably my favorite track so far is Se Deus Quiser, which features a beautiful pocket trumpet performance by Luca Calabrese. Highly recommended. Favorite track: Se Deus Quiser.

about

This album was inspired by my trip to Bahia, to the coastal rainforest of Brazil, the Mata Atlântica, an ecoregion even richer in species than the Amazon, but of which more than 90% is destroyed, and the rest is highly fragmented. The beauty and lushness of this nature, its colors and its sounds, its wildness, but also its vulnerability, have never left me since. Its diversity and complexity have inspired us to create this musical homage. From contributions of many wonderful musicians my friend Markus Reuter has created this manifold collage, a sonic biotope, which tries to do justice to the magic of this region. We are part of nature, it is part of us. Let us respect what sustains us! Let‘s protect what we love! — Mathias Derer
