 Biography - MARKA
Marka set to work on his first solo material, but in the meantime continued to collaborate with his old friend and accomplice, Riton Liebman, a famous Belgian actor.
Marka also enlisted the aid of songwriter Jacques Duvall (renowned for writing many of Lio's greatest hits) and Thierry Robberecht (who proved the perfect writing partner for Marka's barbed lyrics).
Marka's album "Merci d'avance" went on to sell 15,000 copies - a small, but respectable figure - but by now Marka was well on the way to becoming a major name on the Belgian music scene.

  Magical Journeys to Marka Wasi
Widespread archaeological remains dating back from pre-Inca times, spectacular valleys and an enchanting Stone Forest - with its anthropomorphic and zoomorphic giant rock formations, resembling human profiles and animals of all sorts - are spread around an area of four square kilometres, and have puzzled researchers of all parts of the world.
Whatever the origins of the stones, Marka Wasi remains in fact a place where people often experience shifts of time and consciousness, and paranormal phenomena are not uncommon too.
A part from the frequent UFO sightseeing (to which the local villagers of San Pedro de Casta are accustomed), the magical night sky viewed from the plateau offer unique opportunities of unparalleled beauty to see stars and constellations which are only visible from here.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Matt Marka: Good-bye Gracious
There's a noticeable passion in his playing, but Marka has a hard time filling his songs with enough hooky choruses to provide immediate musical gratification.
Until you listen to the tunes that follow, you won't realize that Marka is more of a rockin' songwriter than a skull-shattering preacher on a metaphorical mission.
Marka continues to invoke the masters of the Minneapolis music scene, hinting at rage and frustration on tunes like "Better Never Late" and "Taken Back", while "Lately I've Been Feeling Alone" strips away the distortion for an acoustic-only depresso number.

 Delusions of Adequacy Reviews - Matt Marka   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-20)
Marka wails his pained lyric over loose, clanging percussion in a manner conspicuously similar to what can be heard on Elvis Costello’s recent effort, When I Was Cruel.
In fact, Marka mimics almost exactly both the syncopated drums and the distorted, back-teeth-shattering wail on certain songs on Cruel, such as “Dissolve” and “15 Petals.” Marka’s treatment of “Skin Skeleton” certainly matches the pain of the words, but the song is so close to Elvis’s that it goes way beyond homage to outright thievery.
Marka delves into questions of life and afterlife with sensitivity and deftness.
