Adam Pultz Melbye

Double bass/electronics/composition
Born in Ribe, Denmark in 1981. Currently living in Berlin.

Living in Berlin since 2013, Adam is an active performer as a solo artist and with numerous international projects. A fascination with resonance, acoustics and psychoacoustics has led to the development of unique instrumental techniques and approaches to the double bass that causes the instrument to sing and vibrate in original and unexpected ways.

As a composer, Adam has written acoustic and electroacoustic music for smaller and larger ensembles as well as theatre, dance and film and has created 3D-printed sculptured generated by sound and movement.

He has toured over most of Europe, US, Japan and Australia and appears on 30+ albums.

Bands and collaborations include (but are not limited to): Flamingo, LUBB, Ens Ekt, Julia Reidy, Mark Sanders, Evan Parker, Paul Stapleton, Akemi Nagao, Jenny Haack, Simon Rose, Chris Heenan, Christian Windfeld.
