Kontaktmikrofonensemblet (Contact microphone ensemble) comprises composers, sound artists and musicians Frode Andersen, Jexper Holmen and Ejnar Kanding. The three have been collaborating closely for many years on several projects e.g. the band Lullabies (music for defective musical boxes and advanced electronics). Kontaktmikrofonensemblet explores the effects of extreme amplification of sounds from instruments and other objects using contact microphones.
