Bates Belk is a Texas-native Berlin-based music composer and producer. After living 20 years in New York City, Bates relocated to Berlin in 2015 to write and record his dance album “The Dark Spektrum,” which was globally released on 6 March 2020 and contains collaborations with over 50 Berlin-based artists. Bates is currently working on the score and storyline to his first contemporary dance ballet in Berlin.

“As a music composer and producer, I am constantly striving for the right balance of sound design, melodic content, euphoria, and gut-level instinct while at the same time trying to always write music that makes the audience think about the bigger picture.”
