METAMORPHOSE is a meditation on the nature of duality. A conversation about boldness, empathy, and our capacity for both darkness and light. With themes ranging from somber, reflective, to resolute. Employing ethereal string instruments, inspired grooves, and harnessing inspiration from Emily Dickinson with spoken word by Uli Scheib, METAMORPHOSE explores old paradigms which still offer meaning in a modern age.

ADAE is an artist, producer, and performer based in Berlin. He describes his style of music as "painting with sound" - infusing spectral sound palettes with volumetric ambience as compositions evolve, and entire sets of music unfold. 

A musician since he was 13 years old, he studied ethnomusicology and audio engineering at university and later traveled around the world extensively where he was exposed to new cultures and indigenous sounds. Many of these influences can be found in his music today.

He has performed at Burning Man since 2007, and regularly at events in San Francisco and Seattle. After moving to Berlin, ADAE released 3 EP’s of original music that blur the lines between genres and subvert expectations. 

He is the founder of Heart Deco & The Phoenix -- a popular Burning Man project, esplanade camp, and art/sound vehicle that ran for over 6 years -- as well as other projects. 

In 2019 he joined the Holzmarkt (GuK) cooperative to help support the excellent work that this project is doing to build community and creativity in the heart of Berlin. He has also supported one of San Francisco’s top electronic music venues, The Great Northern, as a limited partner since 2016. 

In his working life, ADAE has created software tools for music lovers and audio professionals at various companies.
