MARKUS GUENTNER / Germany

From his early Pop Ambient contributions, where he was often referred to as ‘The King of Pop Ambient’, to his most recent release with A Strangely Isolated Place; Markus' trademark sound has never faltered, carving out a unique space that exists between dense, looping ambient and heady dub-techno. 

With early albums on Kompakt, Sending Orbs, Moodgadget and Affin, Markus finally graced A Strangely Isolated Place with his most considered album yet in 2015, focusing on the legendary planet, Theia, and has since released a further two LP’s (Empire, and Extropy) as part of an accidental triptych of albums. Whether it be partnering with Julia Kent, Tom Moth or bvdub, Markus’ sound can be considered defining of today’s most powerful and atmospheric ambient music.
