I am a German musician and composer of experimental music. The main focus of my compositions is the digital editing process and the new arrangement of field recordings of all kind. The approach is to make initially inaudible sonic events hearable and to form them to new sound plastics.

After graduation and community service, I concentrated exclusively on music. I started out as a songwriter, producer, singer and guitar player in the popular music world. I’ve released several albums during the 90 ́s and 2000 ́s in this field.

As of 2006 and working under my own name I marked my arrival in the experimental music scene.

My works and performances has been shown at many festivals, churches and artrooms in Germany and abroad for example Akousma Festival Montreal, FIAV Festival Casablanca, GAS Festival Gothenborg, Madeira Dig, Madeira, Timezone Festival Bari, File Festival Sao Paolo; Gallery Hoehmannhaus, Augsburg, ArtToxin Munich, Spektrum, Berlin and may more (please see website: www.markusmehr.de)

Up until know I ́ ve released several albums (HS, Grünrekorder), composed music for experimental film projects (w/visual artist Stefanie Sixt) and completed severals sound installations such a. o. Pressure, Freedom Love & Observation and the forthcoming multichannel work Supraorganism.
