If Deuter does not give you his exact address you'll most likely never find his domain. It is hidden deep in the New Mexico forest he shares with birds, deer, roadrunners, snakes and coyotes. The sound of wind chimes and bees fill the air. He is a beekeeper; recently he's been regularly visited by a bear who rather indelicately tried to sample the sweet wares of his hives. Between studio sessions you'll probably find the musician reshaping his pond or crafting zen-like furniture in his workshop. Deuter describes himself as a hermit/monk/wolf living in the wild (and enjoying it!). He designed his house using the principles of Feng Shui. The studio, with its large windows and views of the forest, is a sanctuary--a laboratory for music-making that includes instruments from all over the world: Shakuhachi flutes, sitars, tablas, santoors, a Turkish sasz, and a Persian tar; Chimes, bowls and Tibetan bells and of course, keyboards, guitars, and synthesizers. If you are lucky enough to be invited into Deuter's world while he is recording, you'll experience a transformation as he disappears into his the magic of his music.

On Sea and Silence…
“Each time I put in this CD my body immediately relaxes in anticipation of the soothing music of Deuter. The sound of the waves overlaid with Deuter’s instrumentals offers a sense of peace and relaxation, while conjuring up images of the sea. I listen to this CD while riding in the car, and it eases any stress from my day.“
