Background and artwork

edit

Atlantis is a double album. The first CD features songs composed and produced by Dieter Bohlen, who also worked on Andrea Berg's two previous albums Schwerelos (2010) and Abenteuer (2011), while the second CD includes contributions by various other songwriters and producers such as David Brandes and DJ BoBo.[6]

According to Berg, the Atlantis theme was chosen as a continuation of her previous album Abenteuer, for which she used metaphors related to sea adventures and pirates.[7] She also associates the island with freedom.[7] The pictures used for the cover and booklet of Atlantis were taken by English underwater photographer Zena Holloway,[7] who also worked with numerous other personalities such as Katie Price, singers Kylie Minogue and Rita Ora, or swimmer Jessica Hardy. Berg trained for four weeks to be able to hold her breath long enough for the photoshoot.[7]
