Review: Markus Guentner: On Brutal Soil, We Grow - Inverted Audio
Markus Guentner’s On Brutal Soil, We Grow is an epic ambient journey of choral light, Ligeti-like shadows, grief, hope and release.

He stretches notes until they almost become transparent, stacking layer-upon-layer to create a sonic carpet consisting of overlapping filigrees. This quiet intensity slowly takes over, until the noises of the outside world are completely gone.

This compilation traces fragments and developments of my musical work between 2011 and 2026. Loosely connected by dub as both attitude and sonic language, the material moves between ambient, stripped-down club music and timeless in-between spaces.

The first part of a two-volume project.

Much of my musical work takes place indoors. In front of screens. In a controlled environment of room lighting, cables, interfaces, and decisions that often differ only in nuances. It is a form of concentration that easily tips into tunnel vision...
