On Hybrid Vigor, percussionist/improviser Marcos Fernandes presents a collection of globally informed pieces reflecting his multicultural identity and a continuing fascination with musical cross-fertilization.
Born in Yokohama, Japan of Portuguese/Irish/Japanese heritage, and raised a Catholic in a Buddhist land, hybridization defines Fernandes' world view. Hybrid Vigor offers a sampling of his musical process, a narrative style incorporating improvisation, avant rock, trance and sound art. Guests include Michael Dessen, Lisle Ellis, Philip Gelb, David Gould and fellow improvisers of the Trummerflora Collective of which he is a founding member.

"...a fabulous album - probably the most impressive showcase of the varied talents of the collective and of Fernandes compositional and creative skills."
- Jeremy Keens, Ampersand, etc. (Australia)
"Eccentric, self-indulgent, occasionally humorous, with more than a bucketful of talent in each of the thirteen people involved."
- Antony Burgess, Metamorphic Journeyman (UK)
"Dieses aussergewöhnliche Album ist ein experimentelles, improvisatives Hybrid, ein Meilenstein moderner Musik. Wurzeln und Zukunft in einem. Ein Muss."
- Volkmar.Mantei, Ragazzi Music (Germany)
