    Biografie

    Petter Eldh
    Bassist, producer, composer, arranger, synth collector, and MPC enthusiast.

    From a young age, Petter Eldh was captivated by a diverse range of musical genres, including jazz, soul, reggae, Swedish folk music, Middle Eastern music, and hip hop. He began collecting vinyl at the age of seven and initially played guitar before transitioning to the double bass, which would become his primary instrument. His eclectic influences, ranging from Charles Mingus, Anders Jormin, and Charlie Haden to Charlie Parker, A Tribe Called Quest, Monica Zetterlund, Samla Mammas Manna, Aretha Franklin, and Earth, Wind & Fire, have shaped his dynamic career as a musician.

    Petter pursued his studies at the Skurups Folk High School near Malmö before earning a Master’s degree in Music Performance from the Rhythmic Music Conservatory in Copenhagen. Since then, he has lived and worked across Sweden, Berlin, and London.

    In recognition of his talent, Petter was awarded the SWR Jazzpreis in 2022 and the Deutscher Jazzpreis in the string category in 2024.

    His long-standing collaborations reflect his innovative spirit and include work with artists such as Kit Downes, James Maddren, Sofia Jernberg, Jameszoo, Otis Sandsjö (Y-Otis), Lucia Cadotsch (Speak Low), Mette Rasmussen, Peter Evans, Savannah Harris, Hayden Chisholm, Gard Nilssen, Peter Bruun, Christian Lillinger, Benoit Delbecq, Jonas Kullhammar, Per “Texas” Johansson, and Kaja Draksler. As a producer, Petter has remixed tracks for notable acts like Jaga Jazzist ("The Shrine" on Brainfeeder), Jameszoo ("Flake" on Brainfeeder), DLW ("Repurposing DLW" on Plaist), Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra ("Vula" on Afterhours), and Speak Low (Enja).

    He continues to release innovative projects, including his Projekt Drums series on Edition Records and albums with his bands POST KOMA (formerly known as Koma Saxo), ENEMY, and Y-OTIS on the Finnish label We Jazz Records.
