Welcome!

Honestly, we still can’t believe what a huge event ADE has grown into over its 20 years. To be the global epicentre of electronic music culture for five days and nights makes us so proud. We’re very grateful for all the support we’ve had over the years while we’ve been creating an event that, on the one hand, puts every imaginable aspect of electronic music in the spotlight, but, on the other, is also a gathering of musiclovers and friends – be it friends for life or just one special moment. We’ll be surrounded by millions of beats during ADE that we hope will inspire you and guide you to the next edition. Enjoy and party responsibly! Most of all though, thanks for being part of our family!

Richard Zijlma, managing director, Amsterdam Dance Event

What is ADE? “An open-source platform”, asserts ADE’s managing director, Richard Zijlma Now in its 20th year, the Amsterdam Dance Event comprises the ADE Conference’s dedicated talks and panel discussions; the 2,000 artists performing across over 100 locations for the ADE Festival; and the ADE Playground, which brings dance music culture to the streets.

“I am fascinated by this city,” says ADE’s director, Richard Zijlma. “ADE is irrefutably connected to Amsterdam and thus with its evolution. In the future, cities and regions will be more important than countries and nations. It is not a secret that the city’s business climate is affected in a positive way by nightlife and the creative industry. I see lots of opportunities to integrate the creative industry into the fabric of ADE, and by extension, Amsterdam.

“That is motivated by practical thinking too. Dance generates more money than ever before. Successful dance artists – often pioneers like Tiësto and Richie Hawtin – increasingly reinvest their earnings in their industry; more specifically in technological innovation, which makes total sense since technology is part of dance’s DNA. After all, it’s electronic music! This is an excellent opportunity. Reinvesting in dance will strengthen the creative industry in its supply chain. Dance can function as a flywheel for the creative industry. For some years now, companies and parties with money to invest are visiting ADE in search of opportunities. Their focus is increasingly shifting to technology.”

24 What is ADE?

Music and technology “It’s quite special to see that Dutch artists and producers are opening doors that used to be impassable.

They manage to produce international hit records on a regular basis; to come up with new and unique flavours via dance music. This industry is so much more than superstar DJ’s spinning for the masses. It entails a huge professional business with a multitude of aspects.

“Technology and innovation are part and parcel of Holland’s history. At ADE Green we’ll present a number of innovations that will make the world a greener place – hopefully. So ADE is more and more about music and technology. Every company and organisation that wants to link up to this industry should have ADE and Amsterdam in mind. Judging by my inbox, we are close to that situation.”

25 What is ADE?

26 What is ADE?

Extra layers “This year is ADE’s 20th anniversary. In 1996, when it started out, ADE was simply a marketplace for publishers and labels to license music. We added performing artists to the program, so event organisers, promoters, managers and agents visited ADE. We have carefully navigated the course of extending ADE with extra layers, adding new segments of the industry to the program, which this year comprises some eight or nine sub-conferences.

“Our objective was and is: what supply chains can you define in this scene? So we started ADE Next.

We wanted to create a space for entry-level DJ’s and producers – the next generation. And we created ADE University for students and young professionals who want to work in this industry.

“Some years ago, the ADE Playground was added to the program. The question was: how can we integrate initiatives by third parties into the event? The answer was ADE Playground, the day program that complements the ADE Festival’s nighttime program. It has enriched ADE enormously; it turned nightlife into culture. Cultural institutions – museums and the like – suddenly understood that they could, or maybe even should, be part of ADE. Moreover, it created a platform for brands to connect to ADE visitors.”

27 What is ADE?

Extraordinary reach “ADE’s global reach is extraordinary. It numbers hundreds of millions of people. I have been looking for partners that could help lift this industry to a higher level – more innovation, more reach. I have stressed the increasing importance of content and traffic. And if you want to build your profile in the dance sector, you have to be present at ADE. Facebook and Spotify are now ADE partners. All this means that dance artists and the dance industry in general view ADE as a promotional platform, so we continuously have to create value for that platform, including the promotion of Dutch dance productions.

“After 20 years, the way I see ADE now is this: ADE is an open-source platform. This means that anyone who has a good idea is welcome. That, after all, is the way ADE Festival and ADE Playground are set up. 20 years ago I did not have the words ‘open source’ and ‘platform’, but that’s what ADE is in my opinion; an opensource platform. That’s the reason why it can grow bigger and bigger every year. I am very much aware that ADE belongs to all of us, and with that notion comes a responsibility.”

For the first time ever, graffiti from New York and Amster­dam will be exhibited side by side. From September 18 until January 24, the Amsterdam Museum (Kalverstraat 92) invites graffiti buffs to discover the influence 1980s New York has had on Dutch taggers over the years.

During ADE, Urban Art NOW and the Amsterdam Museum offer a daily walking tour led by a prominent local street artist. Exploring Amsterdam’s Central District, the tour unveils hidden gems by artists like Invader, The London Police, BustArt and Alice Pasquini before ending at the museum exhibition. The tour runs daily from October 14 – 18 and meets at the Original Dampkring Gallery (Singel 395) at 3pm. It costs € 15, which includes complimentary drinks and snacks, as well as museum entry.)

Film The Melkweg Cinema and De Balie Cinema, in cooperation with Cineville and DJBroadcast, present a program of assorted music films and documentaries.

At Melkweg, Marc Houle performs his new soundtrack to the brilliant 1926 silent movie ‘A Page of Madness’ (‘Kurutta Ippêji’) by Japanese director Teinosuke Kinugasa. It’s a rare screening of a groundbreaking flick, and a truly special occasion.

Cineville and De Balie present ‘Soundhunters’, a documentary by Beryl Koltz that follows two musicians’ adventures in the world of sound hunting. The film documents their encounters with exceptional musicians (Matthew Herbert, Chassol, Matmos, Jean Michel Jarre, Blixa Bargeld and Cosmo Sheldrake) from very different genres and backgrounds. ‘Industrial Soundtrack for the Urban Decay’ is the first film to trace the origins of industrial music. ‘Future Sound of Mzansi’ is a documentary that aims to explore, express and interrogate South Africa’s cultural landscape.

On Saturday (October 17), Resident Advisor presents a series of short documentaries on vibrant local dance scenes at Cinema Café (Thorbeckeplein 16-18) called ‘Real Scenes’. Featured are Berlin, Bristol, Detroit and Paris. At De Balie, Job de Wit hosts a special ADE edition of Amsterdam’s video screening event, ‘Fullscreen’. On Sunday (October 18), Resident Advisor concludes their ‘Real Scenes’ series with Mexico City, Tokyo, Johannesburg and New York.

Volkshotel has a varied ADE Playground program, which includes the screening of ‘Wild Combination’, a portrait of avant-garde musician, disco producer and composer Arthur Russell. To follow, author Tim Lawrence will give a talk on Russell’s musical legacy. This program is co-presented by The Rest is Noise.

Cineville, Melkweg and DJBroadcast present: ADE Films Feel like coming down gently after a heavy night of clubbing? Sit back and relax at the Melkweg Cinema.

Together with Cineville and Melkweg, DJBroadcast presents a series of films exploring our musical, cultural and creative climate with some of electronic music’s key players. The program features an exclusive Dutch premiere (the long-anticipated ‘808’ documentary), a new film score performed live by Marc Houle (for ‘A Page of Madness’), and a Greek producer who believes in dancing around architecture and making music about math (‘My Friend Larry Gus’).

808 ‘808’ is the inspirational story of the Roland TR-808 drum machine and how its ground-shaking beats changed the music world. ‘808’ reveals the stories behind the renowned artists, producers and, most importantly, the hit music to which the 808 was key, offering a cross section of personal experiences throughout the development of musical genres around the world.

the ups and downs, friendships, and still moments of everyday life in the struggle to make it. Will Larry Gus reach his musical destination instead of succumbing to his bank-clerk fate? Will he prove his father wrong and actually make something out of it? Over the course of three years of shooting, from Athens to New York to Milan and back again, a lot changed. And, magically enough, a lot remained the same.

A Page of Madness, with live musical accompaniment from Marc Houle

Marc Houle’s original score for the cult film ‘A Page of Madness’ will have its world premiere at ADE this year. The techno producer will perform his composition live on stage. Originally created in the 1920s, ‘A Page of Madness’ was long-believed lost until its director, Teinosuke Kinugasa, rediscovered it hidden deep within his garden shed. A masterpiece of Japanese silent cinema, Kinugasa uses a striking array of expressionist and surrealist filmmaking techniques to evoke the inner thoughts and feelings of patients in a mental hospital.

My Friend Larry Gus

– Thursday, 15 October, 9pm @ Melkweg Cinema

In May 2010, 26-year-old engineering student and ambitious musician Larry Gus gets the chance to realise his dream. He drops his master’s studies in Barcelona and creeps back into his childhood bedroom to record an album for an American label. His friend Vasilis Katsoupis is inspired to begin filming the effort,

The Amsterdam Dance Event provides all of the ingredients, but it’s down to you to cook up your own unique festival experience. Like with a marathon, the more prepared you are, the better.

1. Using alcohol or other drugs is never without risk. if you choose to consume alcohol or other drugs, do so responsibly and consciously.

Be aware that things like potency can be very different here to what you are used to at home.

Get informed by visiting unity.nl/ade.

5. Don’t push your limits. Be responsible.

Celebrate, dance and be wild, but do so within your own limits.

6. Be prepared for any type of weather.

Make sure you’re prepared for the erratic Dutch weather.

It can change rapidly!

7. Take your time to chill.

Clubs can be hot and humid. Prevent overheating by taking regular breaks from dancing.

2. Love your ears.

Be gentle to your eardrums. Don’t stand too close to the speakers, give your ears a break once in a while and wear earplugs at all times.

8. Always have safe sex.

Make smart choices and be wary of taking strangers back to your home or hotel room.

Make sure a friend knows who you’re with and where you are, and always – always! – use condoms.

3. Think for yourself. Care for others.

Please take care of yourself, watch out for each other and know that help is all around you. If you see someone who needs medical attention or just a helping hand, keep the positive vibe alive and be a friend to a friend in need.

9. F irst Aid is your friend.

If you or one of your friends is not feeling well, stay calm and go to one of the First Aid points. The people there are professionals and what you tell them is confidential. You won’t be fined or prosecuted for drug use.

4. Pace yourself: eat, sleep, rave.

Take your time to recharge and make sure to get enough sleep. Treat yourself to some healthy food to resupply your body with energy.

Not at an event? Call 112!

If you’re thirsty then drink water, but keep in mind that drinking too much of it is dangerous too. If you’re on ecstasy, stick to a maximum of two glasses every hour.

10. Don’t put yourself or others at risk by driving drunk or high.

It’s a bicycle jungle out there! Be careful and stay focused!

Urbanears creates the ultimate urban hideout

Converse presents their new sample library with Machinedrum and Midland

Headphone brand Urbanears has always been seeking to unite music enthusiasts in a fun-loving way, and for this year’s ADE they have something truly special in store. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday, The View – a superb location that gazes over the city centre – will be the home base of the Swedish brand. A day and night program of interactive performances and indulgent goodies presents an opportunity to escape from the formal activities and networking crowd. During the day, all visitors are welcome for food, drinks, innovation and entertainment fuelled by a generous dose of musical escapades. Visitors can also expect surprise encounters orchestrated by local artist groups. PIPS:lab – a theatre collective that emerged from Amsterdam’s underground party scene – will present their highly interactive tech installations. A pampering room will be offering hangover help and love band-aids, while there will also be themed PechaKuchas, the ‘Network Bash’ and something that’s best described as ‘artistic morning exercise’. Visitors who are in no mood to engage in the interactive delights can relax and refuel, take the staircase route through Krijn van Noordwijk’s ‘Best Of ADE’ photographs, or peek over the shoulders of Urbanears’ headphone designers. In the evening, a selected crowd will be invited to take part in a series of memorable experiences. www.urbanears.com

This fall, Converse will be bringing its music platform, Converse Rubber Tracks, to the ADE Playground for the first time. With their partners, Indaba Music, Converse will present the Rubber Tracks Sample Library alongside their new products and exclusive tracks from Machinedrum and Midland. In addition, the art of sampling and its central role in modern music production will be examined as part of a panel discussion.

To support independent music producers around the world, Converse has created the Converse Rubber Tracks Sample Library. This online library continues to expand with over 20,000 one shots, loops and stems recorded at the Rubber Tracks studios by some of the top musicians in the world. The library provides a unique resource for all DJ’s and producers at no cost. In addition to the panel discussion, Converse and their local partner, Red Light Radio, will host a CRT Live performance featuring North Carolina-born producer Machinedrum and his choice of artist from the CRT pop-up studio in Amsterdam. Converse has already been working with Amsterdam’s Tom Trago, 80s legend Das Ding and the Beesmunt Soundsystem boys to create tracks using samples from the library and to also contribute their own for all to use. In addition, English DJ/producer Midland will be producing a new track in the studio.

Converse Rubber Tracks started off as a purpose built, state-of-the-art recording studio in Brooklyn back in 2011 and has since opened two more of its own studios. It also extends the CRT experience by taking its engineers to local studios to invite emerging musicians of all genres to apply for free studio time. If selected, artists can record at no cost while maintaining the rights to their music, no strings attached. www.converse-music.com/rubbertracks

Find the love of your line-up with Music State

Converting their cosy living-room setting into the ADE Gear Test Lab, it’ll be filled with the latest high-end gear from the most innovative brands. Get your hands on the freshest products from Amptec, Future Audio Workshop’s Circle 2 softsynth and new audio interfaces from iConnectivity. Make sure you also try out iZotope’s Ozone 6 mastering platform and experiment with Livid’s latest performance controllers. Moog will offer plenty of analogue gear ready to fiddle with and RME showcases its most cutting-edge audio solutions.

Next Audio Labs will present their new Rekord Buddy 2.0 software, Novation will have a range of their latest equipment available to demo, London-based ROLI will be present to show off the creative possibilities of their Seaboard Rise keyboard and Equator softsynth. Universal Audio will also be present, demonstrating their latest innovations for computer-based musicians.

The ADE Card also grants holders access to ADE MusicTalks.

With ADE’s thousands of artists spread over hundreds of venues, even the best-connected pros can’t know every name on the line-up. How do you know where to start? Perhaps more importantly, how do you see all your current favourites without missing out on discovering your future ones? Fortunately the Music State Matchmaker is here to help. It works a bit like Tinder, except you’re onto a winner every time! It doesn’t matter whether you’re looking for a hyperactive bassline, mellow vocals, a superstar artist or the next big thing, just answer a few quick questions and a clearly planned schedule will materialise out of the chaos. Your line-up will even be accompanied by personalised playlists for a taste of what to expect. During ADE, the Music State Matchmaker will update you with suggestions on when and where the hottest acts are playing, and the highlights you may have missed as well – all for the love of music and the thrill of discovery. The only drawback is it’s currently only available in Dutch.

(Sorry non-Dutchies!) That’s because Matchmaker is powered by Music State, a new Dutch online music magazine that covers everything from Tom Trago to Yellow Claw. For more information, visit www.musicstate.nl/matchmaker

Amsterdam in full swing Amsterdam is in full swing. The dynamism of its downtown area is spilling over into the city’s East and West districts. Not to be outdone, the North Side is quickly evolving into Amsterdam’s new playground. ADE follows suit.

55 Districts special

56 Districts special

Amsterdam Centrum // Central District With more than 50 clubs and venues programming ADE-related events, Amsterdam’s Central District (the canal area and its adjacent quarters) is the obvious focal point for the world’s biggest dance music festival. A staggering array of artists and styles are on display, all within walking distance. With so much variety in such close quarters, it’s almost impossible not to find a bill to your liking in ADE’s heartland. It also offers an extensive ADE Playground program to enjoy in the daytime.

This wealth of choice breaks down into several subsets. The Leidseplein neighbourhood is littered with intimate clubs and venues. Paradiso and Melkweg are internationally renowned. Sugar Factory, Nova, Jimmy

Woo, Suzy Wong, Chicago Social Club, Luminaa and Stanislavski are all within a 60-second walk from Melkweg. Likewise, a minute from Paradiso lie Club Blinq, Van Dyck Bar, No. 129 and De Balie.

Club Church (Kerkstraat) and FOAM (Keizersgracht) link Leidseplein to Amsterdam’s traditional nightlife hub, Rembrandtplein – home to Escape Studio, Van Rhijn, John Doe, AIR, Club Abe, Cinema Café and Cue Bar. Just a stone’s throw away, Reguliersdwarsstraat is Amsterdam’s reputed ‘gay street’. Several of its many clubs, bars and restaurants are hosting ADE events, including Rosa’s Cantina, Ludwig, Club NYX, La Cage and Feijoa. So are nearby Odeon and Disco Dolly.

58 titel

The inner-city area, including the Red Light District, is peppered with locally renowned venues, clubs and bars. Warmoesstraat’s Winston Kingdom and The Warehouse, as well as BarNL, Café Schuim, Vrankrijk, the Amsterdam Museum, Café de Paris, Art Deli, Supperclub Cruise, Compagniehuis and the Internationaal Danstheater (International Dance Theatre), all offer ADE Festival or ADE Playground-related specials.

In the western part of Amsterdam’s canal area, on Rozengracht, you’ll find DJ-pub Café Struik, Boom Chicago and Closure, which sports a top-notch ADE bill, featuring Seth Troxler, Magda and Mathew Jonson. Waterkant is among the venues celebrating the 6-year anniversary of 22tracks, and stages a disco night in collaboration with Silhouette Music. There’s also Bitterzoet – the preferred hangout of many local producers.

With so many venues for the ADE Festival and ADE Playground assembled within a square mile of city space, and plenty of meal choices on offer – from take-away services to star-quality restaurants – it’s quite possible to enjoy the full five days of ADE without leaving Amsterdam’s Central District.

And that’s just for starters.

60 Districts special

District Oost // East Side Amsterdam’s East Side includes the Eastern Docklands area, the district around the Artis Zoo and the Indonesian Neighbourhood (Indische Buurt) – a former working-class borough built in the 19th century. Both the docklands and Indische Buurt have recently been overhauled, reconfiguring an obsolete relic and adapting it to the shifting demands of a new era. In the late 1980s, the Netherlands’ very first raves were promoted in the abandoned warehouses of the Eastern Docklands – a wasteland at the time. These days, the docklands area is a marvel of modern comfort and city planning. It exemplifies Amsterdam’s dynamic evolution.

After decades of neglect, the city has reclaimed its waterfront and the open skies of the IJ embankment

present an experience rather different from the close quarters of the inner city. Both BIMHuis and Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ were part of the refurbishment of the East Side’s harbour area in the 1990s. The buildings stand prominently on the waterfront, next to the mooring spot of the party boat Ocean Diva. It’s just minutes by foot from two clubs that are well known to Amsterdam’s dance aficionados: Panama and Club Roest.

Smack-dab in the heart of the docklands district you will find two venues that represent the industrial roots of electronic music. Cruquiusgilde programs techno at its most underground, while Recycle Lounge Gallery Club stages a series of showcases for underground labels and leftfield techno.

61 Districts special

Studio K, a cinema and cultural venue run by students, is located near Javaplein at the very heart of the Indische Buurt. Like Studio K, Javaplein itself is exemplary of the East’s recent rejuvenation, bustling with eateries and sidewalk terraces. The latter caters to lovers of bass music with a special night organised by 44bass, Roots and Fat Kids Cake. Q-Factory is another example of the area’s upgrade – home to the Red Bull Studio, among other things. Both Studio K and QFactory will stage a series of ADE Playground and ADE Festival activities.

Desmet Studio’s, close to the Artis Zoo, sits comfortably in a dignified 18th-century residential area, favoured by students of Amsterdam University’s nearby psychology and mathematics departments. Hotel Arena, adjacent to Oosterpark, offers both four-star accommodation and a string of ADE club events. It also happens to be within walking distance of both Desmet Studio’s, Q-Factory and Volkshotel. The latter stands opposite the location of the former Trouw club and does a proud job of succeeding such a legendary reputation.

64 Districts special

65 Districts special

District West // West Side Amsterdam’s West Side is the dark horse of the capital. However, like the formerly unfashionable North and previously neglected East, it’s in the midst of a major overhaul. The story of De Hallen is exemplary: a former tram garage refurbished into a cultural complex, including galleries, restaurants, bars and a 10-screen cinema. After its opening in September 2014, De Hallen quickly became the place to be, not just for neighbourhood folk but for Amsterdammers everywhere. All of a sudden, the West Side finds itself the darling of the town.

That’s old news to the clubs and venues on Westergasterrein. What used to be an industrial site, housing municipal gas and water installations, has turned into

an oasis for the culturally inclined. Gashouder, the former gas holder, has earned a reputation as the perfect spot for techno parties, and Awakenings will stage four special events during ADE. Nearby Transformatorhuis and Westerunie present a series of techno and trance events in collaboration with labels such as Ovum, Soma and Moon Harbour. Add to that the more intimate North Sea Jazz Club and Westergastheater – a mini-ADE in itself.

Scattered over Oud-West (the 19th-century West Side) are various ADE venues. OT301 is underground to its core, serving up a smattering of leftfield-oriented club nights. Fedde Le Grand hosts his ADE special at Het Sieraad, and Dido Events is the venue of, among

66 Districts special

others, Toolroom and Terminal M label nights hosted

by Hitec. Club 8 – a Geheimtip among local clubbers – joins the ADE fray with a Nordic Trax night and more. De Marktkantine – run by the team behind the Chemistry club nights of legend – goes Berlin for the occasion. Their ADE bill includes Innervisions and Pole label nights, Roman Flügel, and an Alex Smoke live gig.

Located outside the city-ring highway, Radion has built an impressive profile and has taken over Trouw’s reputation as the hottest club in town. It hosts an ADE special featuring Ron Trent led by renowned Amsterdam record shop/techno label, Rush Hour. The city’s best new party organisers, Pleinvrees, have chosen WFC (the former World Fashion Center) as the home base for their ADE events. More Amsterdam-meets-

Berlin techno sounds can be found at the intimate VLLA, where Rotate Berlin, OFF Barcelona and Deep Tech Amsterdam join forces to serve up music and Mexican food. Meanwhile, restaurant and club BRET swings on the soulful side of house.

Finally, the Western Harbour area plays home to some of the city’s most appreciated old- school club settings, all without neglecting modern comforts. Loveland hosts four consecutive ADE specials at Mediahaven, and The Warehouse Elementenstraat (Pan-Pot, Ricardo Villalobos, Robert Hood, Chris Liebing and more), Thuishaven (Michel de Hey’s HEY! label night) and DOK (Transmat, Get Physical) all cater to the spirit of 1988.

68 Districts special

District Zuid // South Side Amsterdam’s South Side is an intriguing hotchpotch of affluent areas and bohemian boroughs. Just a five-minute walk will take you from the Museum Quarter – with Rijksmuseum, Stedelijk Museum and the Concertgebouw, encircling the Museumplein (Museum square) – to De Pijp, a labyrinth of alleyways bustling with street life. De Pijp boasts the Netherland’s highest ratio of catering facilities per square mile; it is a veritable cornucopia of eateries and bars. A sizeable contingent of Amsterdam’s creative and student community live, lounge, work and play in De Pijp. After midnight, some of its narrow streets are more crowded than during daylight hours.

Ironically, as colorful and dynamic as the South Side’s social life may be, club life is mostly lacking in this part of Amsterdam. The people living in the posh Museum Quarter treasure their after-hours peace, while De Pijp is just too crowded – and the sound proofing of its 19th century real estate simply outmoded – for serious clubbing. Besides, the multitude of pubs and bars offer ample alternative. It’s a haven for hanging-out. Plus, it has the nationally famous Albert Cuyp street market.

So Amsterdam’s South Side is thin on ADE-venues, yet it tenders some quality contributions. RAI is the venue of the PRJCT Music Festival (Saturday 17 October), while restaurant annex cultural venue Old School Amsterdam joins the ADE-fray with the Villa Kakelbont ADE Special, including Juan Sanchez and Shinedou (Saturday 17 October). High-capacity venues located beyond the beltway – Amsterdam Studio, Heineken Music Hall and Ziggo Dome – program high-profile events.

The area is crammed with hotspots of the food & beverage variety. Popular among locals are, among others, Paskamer (from lunchtime ‘till after midnight), The Thrill Grill (charcoal-grilled burgers), Coffee & Coconut (coffee and snacks at former art nouveau cinema), Scandinavian Embassey (coffee, food and fashion, Scandinavian style), Hutspot (lunchroom and gallery), De Stadskantine (cheap meals all day long), Omelegg (omelet is 20+ varieties for breakfast, brunch and lunch), Geflipt (burgers, also take-away) and Izakaya (restaurant of Sir Albert Hotel, serves lunch, dinner, cocktails and excellent music).

District Noord // North Side Amsterdam’s North Side, on the upper bank of the IJ waterway, represents the city’s future. Formerly neglected by the mainland, its abandoned shipyards and desolate industrial sites have become a magnet for the creative industries. In their wake, the culinary scene has blossomed. The North Side’s waterfront is now home to some of the hottest restaurants, bars and hangouts in town. It has become fashionable to take the ferry north and join the in-crowd.

It’s a recent development and the North Side is still under construction. EYE, the film museum, opened in April 2012. The former Shell tower, next door to EYE’s, well, eye-catching architecture, is currently being renovated and, from October 2016 onwards, will function as the headquarters of the famous ID&T company, housing offices, a hotel, bars, restaurants and clubs within its fifteen-story frame. Music venue Paradiso has opened its auxiliary in Tolhuistuin, which accommodates an exciting new restaurant as well. The North Side rocks and the city reverberates in tandem.

Both EYE and Tolhuistuin are ADE venues, and several of the North Side’s former dockyards have been re-established as dance locales – its warehouses the natural location for house music events. NDSM,

Ware­house 22, ITW, Dhoem Dhaam and De Overkant all host events during ADE, mostly focused on dance music’s underground roots.

Some former dockyards have been made into stateof-the-art public spaces. NDSM has become a city in itself, including apartment buildings, a slew of eateries and bars, and offices for artists and tech developers.

On Saturday 17 October, it’s home to the Dockyard Festival, featuring Monika Kruse, Paco Osuna, DJ Rush and many more.

Undercurrent (ZeeZout ADE 16 – 18 October) is another former dockyard-turned-event location, as are De Overkant (16 October, with Goldfish, Bakermat, Alle Farben and more) and Pllek, which, with its brilliant waterfront panorama, is one of the hottest watering holes in town. The North Side is also the home port of the party boat Pureliner.

Since virtually all of the North Side’s nightlife infrastructure is newly built, most venues include wining and dining facilities. Pllek’s menu offers local products and seasonal vegetables. Tolhuistuin serves mouthwatering finger food and top wines, as well as fantastic views.

Meanwhile, Café de Ceuvel and its bohemian design best represent the creative spirit of Amsterdam’s North.

“At first I didn’t see it going anywhere” 20 ADE Legends reflect on 20 years The Amsterdam Dance Event has been shaped by an enormous amount of people. From the artists, venues, labels and promoters, to the people who fill the ADE gift bags and work behind the bars or cloakrooms, they’ve all lent a helping hand towards what ADE is today. To shed some light on how ADE has grown through those 20 years, we’ve asked 20 ADE Legends to talk about how the event came to be, what it means to them, what keeps luring them back to Amsterdam and why electronic music has become such a catalyst for the city. A shortlist like this means leaving out more people than it’s possible to include, but to everyone who’s helped in building our event in any way, shape or form: thank you.

To us, there are far too many ADE Legends to count.

But if we could choose only one, it would be quite easy – YOU!

73 20 ADE legends

Joost van Bellen Joost van Bellen is a DJ, writer and organiser of the outrageous Rauw parties. “At first I didn’t really see ADE going anywhere. I used to compare it to Sonar in Barcelona and Miami’s Winter Music Conference, but it was a huge difference. Today, the Amsterdam Dance Event trumps just about every [other]. To me ADE means a week of running around the city, checking up on new music and styles, and maintaining contacts. I also organise ‘SuperRauw’ in Paradiso and do gigs around town. I think that part of its success is due to the bad weather. It means people are not poolside, drunk out of their minds, maintaining their tan, but they’re doing business and finding new inspiration! Also, people just love Amsterdam and the city is so compact you can take your bike everywhere. My most memorable ADE moment was one of our Rauw editions in Trouw. We invited the Parisian Ed Banger crew and the party was an ode to DJ Mehdi, who’d died of a tragic accident only a month and a half before. It was a party filled with tears, emotion and goosebumps. When Busy P played the last track, he burst into tears. I still get a lump in my throat thinking back to that moment.”

Tommie Sunshine Tommie Sunshine is a DJ and producer, and has been a loyal ADE panellist for over a decade. “ADE is like every holiday wrapped up in 5 days. I feel very appreciative for all that the Amsterdam Dance Event has done for me. I also feel that it has a special place in its heart for me as I’ve been at every one for well over the past decade.

My first was in 2001 and ever since it has been simply amazing. Every single edition I’ve been to has been better than the last. The secret to its success is honesty and hard work. Comparing it to other events, I always thought it was all the best parts of the Winter Music Conference, but done even better. Miami was always just a party.

ADE is real business surrounded by some great nights out. One of the craziest moments of my life was creating and moderating the panel with Giorgio Moroder, Nile Rodgers and Greg Wilson. I’ve been told that’s the least amount of words I’ve spoken in an hour my whole life, and it was simply because I was in total and complete awe of those three legends! The best part is I became friends with all of them and count their friendships as treasures in my life thanks to ADE.”

Cor Schlosser Cor Schlosser was at the helm of leading music venue Melkweg for over 40 years and has been with ADE since its conception. “For the first couple of years, De Melkweg and Paradiso were the musical pillars of ADE. The conference took place in De Balie and Felix Meritis, so in the first years our venue was critical for ADE. In those early years, nobody thought it would become as big as it is now. Far bigger than anyone expected or meant it to be. I can remember we hosted a club night with DJ Tiësto. It must have been around the turn of the century. We told him, ‘By the way, this gig is part of a larger event called ADE.’ They only said, ‘Do we have to?’

During the last couple of years it became a festival that leaves its mark on Amsterdam as a city. When I walk the streets during that third week in October, I can’t help but think, ‘Wow! The city is bustling, there are people everywhere. I love that!’ In the early years people thought, ‘Cool party, nice DJ, let’s go.’ But it kept attracting more and more visitors and industry people and, especially in the last five years, this resulted in a snowball effect. Everybody wants to be here. The way Richard worked to build the event to what it is today deserves a lot of respect. In terms of the Amsterdam Dance Event, no legend can compare.”

Olaf Boswijk As the creative genius behind Club 11 and Trouw, Olaf Boswijk gave Amsterdam much of its international allure. “I don’t really know if I had any expectations of ADE at all. It was just there. I remember being an intern at New Dance Radio when I was 20 years old. My boss, Soedesh Moerlie, was invited to a panel on internet radio, but he couldn’t make it and asked me to take his place. I was green as grass and flanked by internet pioneers, but I was there. I guess that was around 1999, and I’ve been doing panels every year since. For me, ADE has always been a means to meet with my international contacts―a long, tiring week that you reap the rewards of for the rest of the year. I’ve always tried to program the best line up of DJ’s I could find, both with Club 11 and Trouw. The 2009 edition was the most memorable for me. It was Trouw’s first ADE and the first time we gathered an international crowd of people. That was the first time we felt the true potential of our club, mainly because of the great response that crowd gave us. I think the success of ADE runs parallel to the success of Amsterdam as a city.

It has a strong and broad international profile. It’s fun and it’s a great place to do business―and you can cycle everywhere within fifteen minutes! After Trouw I took a year off to travel the Americas, so this will be the first time since ’99 that I won’t be able to visit the event. I’ll be on a sunny beach in California. That should be lovely too!”

Ton Poppes Ton Poppes is the owner and initiator of renowned night club Escape. “We have always believed in the concept of the Amsterdam Dance Event and have supported it since the very beginning, although I couldn’t fathom it would be as important as it is today. The electronic music scene just wasn’t as strong then as it is now. Not in terms of creativity, but commercially. It became an industry, and that whole industry focusses on Amsterdam for one week in October. I think that’s partly due to the huge pool of musical talent we have in the Netherlands, and of course the way ADE’s organised and the city of Amsterdam have promoted it through the years. To the city council, the Amsterdam Dance Event is one of the key cultural moments of the year. I think it’s great. For us it’s a chance to invite loads of big name DJ’s to our booth. In that regard, my personal ADE Legend would be David Guetta. He took our stage last year and gave one of the greatest sets I’ve ever heard. The crowd, the music, the mood – everything clicked! It was a magical night I will never forget.”

John van Luyn As music programmer for Melkweg, John van Luyn took care of the line-up during ADE’s earliest years.

“I remember Richard dashing into the office, 20 years ago, [asking] if we wanted to participate in his new event.

I slowly turned my head towards him and responded with, ‘Well, you know, if you want to add a day to our Friday and Saturday we can surely get someone to play the decks, so you can have your festival.’ Soon I realised Richard had bigger plans. With no expectations whatsoever, I saw ADE grow massively. It’s remarkable to see what ADE has become. I don’t know if it was foreseen, but I greatly admire Richard and the rest for being able to attract so many people. Don’t get me wrong, I’d have just as much admiration for an international flower convention, but just the fact that someone is capable of this deserves praise. What I really appreciated is that I had all the freedom programming the festival. I remember the edition when we organised a label night with DJ Tiësto.

Man, the fuss about that! I knew there would be criticism, but I thought it was important to give his musical style a stage, since it was out there undeniably. And apparently it was good I did it, because all dance has been welcomed at ADE ever since. For me, ADE means a week off. I have been involved intensively in the past, but no one wants to see an old man dancing in the corner, so I’ll just play poker, make music or go to the pub with friends.

I might hear my daughter out on what she’s seeing this year. But that doesn’t mean I’m not listening to the music anymore. I’m definitely paying attention!

Eelko Anceaux Eelko Anceaux started legendary club Chemistry and the DJ-agency Barkers. He now heads De Marktkantine in Amsterdam’s Old West. “In 20 years time, ADE became one of Amsterdam’s trademarks. It’s a platform that keeps on growing and delivers to more and more artists, promoters, clubs and labels every year. It doesn’t exclude anyone and it tolerates everyone. Back in 1988 I thought house music would be the new rock ’n’ roll, and by now I think it’s safe to say that it is! When I started Chemistry in ’95, dance music had already become something huge. A showcase convention like ADE was a logical step in its evolution, but no one could have ever dreamt it would become so huge. Kim Tuin and I started Barkers Agency around the same time and our roster included the best DJ’s in the Netherlands, and some international greats like Carl Craig. To our minds, Amsterdam was the epicentre of dance music and ADE was the event that connected everything. That Chemistry, Barkers and ADE all commenced in the same year can’t be a coincidence. An amusing anecdote: I remember in ’97, DJ Sneak was playing at Chemistry XXXL. While he put on what must have been only his second track, the entire dance floor emptied. It turned out the bar selling laughing gas had just opened. Fifteen minutes later, the balance was restored and the room was filled with hundreds of happy kids – and DJ Sneak – dancing with nitrous oxide balloons. That’s house music culture right there!”

“There is no right formula for how to make it, how to program it, how to listen to it, how to enjoy it. It’s not possible to be the number-one DJ. It’s best to look at what we do as a service, and you have no way of calculating the accuracy.”

81 Feature

Jeff Mills Jeff Mills is one of the most renowned techno musicians in the world and continues to push the boundaries of electronic music to its limits. “One of the reasons ADE is so successful is that it’s not just parties all through the night. It offers people [the chance] to learn more about the industry that they’re in. But in the end, the people have made it. It’s really them who decide, ‘Okay, we’re going to make this happen.’ ADE does a great service. It’s probably the most important conference where anybody interested in enhancing his or her [electronic music] career can ask questions. There is no school of music, no industry magazine that answers these questions. Perhaps there needs to be some masterclasses, where people who have been in the industry for a long time discuss more complex issues. What could we do with electronic music, beyond where it is now? How far could we take it? How do we protect it from industries coming in and abusing it, like iTunes? I don’t have an ADE Legend. No one is doing anything perfectly. We are all learning. You can’t put anyone higher than anyone else. There is no right formula for how to make it, how to program it, how to listen to it, how to enjoy it. It’s not possible to be the number-one DJ. It’s best to look at what we do as a service, and you have no way of calculating the accuracy.

So I don’t have a legend.”

Dave Clarke Through the years, Dave Clarke has become a true British ADE Legend in his hometown away from home.

“I don’t see myself as an ADE Legend. Anyone that sees themselves as a legend must have a massive ego and play EDM! Every single person that has worked for ADE during each event has played a part and worked hard as a team. ADE is a team effort. This 20th edition is an amazing milestone. Amsterdam is a natural place for it to be held. It is one of the best connected and most beautiful cities in the world. Dance culture is in Amsterdam’s DNA. To me, the event means getting serious with topics in panels, networking, playing and meeting all the international people, and bringing them all together. I met some amazing people along the way. Richard Zijlma, Karsten ter Hoeven and Gary Smith: three wonderful chaps who are a pleasure to work with. But my personal ADE Legend is Frankie Knuckles.”

Geert van Itallie Geert van Itallie is the general director of Melkweg and the former associate director of Paradiso. “In 2011 I’d just became the director at De Melkweg, and it suddenly dawned on me that during ADE I was running the biggest club in the whole of Amsterdam, with four rooms that could take more than 3000 people. The Amsterdam Dance Event helped me prove to myself that I was able to organise big events! But seriously, to me it has always been a benchmark in an already busy year. It’s a tour de force that shows Amsterdam can measure itself with Berlin in terms of club culture. It’s a week long win-win situation that ensures everybody at the event gives his or her all. The Amsterdam Dance Event showcases the broadness of the amazing Dutch talent in electronic music, from Martin Garrix to Kees van Hondt – although Kees is often on holiday during that week in October!”

Marco de Goede Marco de Goede is a city councillor for GroenLinks and one of the initiators of Amsterdam’s Night Mayor movement. “Back in the day I would’ve been happy if Amsterdam would appear on the same list as Sonar in Barcelona and Miami WMC. Because of ADE, Amsterdam is now renowned as a city with one of the best nightlife offerings in the world. That’s something I’m quite proud of. I first came in contact with the event as a city councillor. Almost no-one in local politics understood how important it could be for the city. I tried to convince them otherwise, and because of that [ADE] could get some permits and subsidies. Something as simple as raising the ADE flags across Amsterdam was illegal. That’s where I came in. But those are just details. My only share was believing in the right people at the right time. Support them. As a politician it’s amazing to help enable other people to achieve great things because of your support. But it’s the organisation, crowd and artists that make it what it is today. Every year I think it can’t get any better, but every year it does. That’s why there is only one ADE Legend for me: Mr. ADE himself, Richard Zijlma!”

Maz Weston Maz Weston is an ADE veteran, having programmed for Paradiso since the beginning. “I don’t consider myself to be someone that laid the foundations for the Amsterdam Dance Event – it’s always been about the music.

Having said that, I have been involved with booking line-ups for Paradiso since the very start, which is one of the original locations. ADE always stood for hard work, but that energy gets returned to you with all the fun you get out of the unexpected things you see and hear. The people you meet, the valuable contacts you take home – Amsterdam brightens up that week and the nights truly come to life. I had never expected that the Amsterdam Dance Event would become the number-one dance music conference in the world. About ten or fifteen years ago, the Miami Winter Music Conference was the place to be, but ADE really took it by storm. The most memorable ADE to me has to be the one before last year. Or maybe the one before that? Geez, it’s one big blur! Two years ago we had an amazing edition―the forum with Nile Rodgers and Giorgio Moroder was an afternoon that I will never forget. One that I will also remember forever is the time we hosted the International Golden Gnome Awards in Paradiso, 5 years ago. This was our version of the Gouden Kabouter Awards that we made for ADE. Just like in the Dutch edition, we had nutty categories like Sexiest DJ, Favourite Agent, and Best-Dressed DJ. Richie Hawtin won the award for Best DJ, and when he came up on stage to collect his trophy, he said he was very thrilled to have won, but that he had actually hoped to win the award for Worst Haircut!”

Frens Frijns Frens Frijns worked with ADE for two years and is currently the general director of 013 in Tilburg. “When ADE asked me to step in, it was mostly a record business affair. That was in 2003 and they wanted me to set up the Live Dance Music Conference to make it more accessible to promoters and bookers. Including the live [element] was an important part of ADE’s success, and in some ways it was the start of a ‘new’ ADE. When the live industry got involved it became more interesting for DJ’s to play at the event. It set in motion a snowball effect. If my memory serves me, back then around 12 or 13 clubs were partaking, and afterwards that number shot to the sky. What makes the Amsterdam Dance Event so successful is that being there can be very rewarding and even lucrative. It’s a great place for the dance industry to do business, which makes it interesting for the artists to be there, which in turn is interesting for the visitors. That effect propelled it towards the great event it is today. And it keeps getting bigger and better by the year. I would never have imagined it to grow so big. That, to me, is amazing.”

Gert van Veen Gert van Veen (a.k.a. Quazar) is founder of Welcome to the Future, former creative director of Studio 80 and co-editor-in-chief of Mary Go Wild – 25 years of House Music in the Netherlands. “ADE is ADE thanks to the boundless passion and drive of the whole electronic music scene; the thousands of DJ’s, labels and clubs that play a role in dance music and make the Amsterdam Dance Event what it is. As a writer, musician, producer, live act and organiser, I’ve been involved in almost every aspect of the ADE. With Welcome to the Future we hosted parties at the Paradiso in the 90s, and later in Studio 80 and the Warehouse Elementenstraat. And I was there, 20 years ago, when the idea of an Amsterdam Dance Event took shape during several meetings at the Paradiso. It has turned out much bigger and better than anyone could have expected. The huge growth and great atmosphere ADE gained over the years is really amazing. The 350,000 international guests – both artists and party people – make the vibe so special. It’s really the best and most happening week of the year for club life in Amsterdam – a week long celebration that I always look forward to. I think that success is partly due to the allure of Amsterdam in general, and the healthy dance climate we’ve cultivated in the Netherlands over the past decades. And of course the dedication, skill and passion of director Richard Zijlma, who helped make ADE the grand event it is today.”

Anna Knaup Anna Knaup was ADE’s general manager during the early years and currently manages top DJ, Hardwell.

“I feel very connected to ADE. It’s a project that I’m proud of and I’m very happy to see its growth and expansion―even today. Back then I had high hopes for the event being one of the world’s key conferences in dance music, and that certainly is what it became. I became general manager at ADE after its first edition and, back then, it was just a traditional convention with stands. To my mind that was way too formal for the dance industry and so we changed the stands for the networking lounges still in use today. We also made sure ADE Card users could visit all the different clubs and events, and that there was one, uniform program. For me, the first edition at Felix Meritis was very special. This was a new location we sought out by ourselves and, though we were really nervous, it turned out to be a great success. Over the years I met a lot of interesting people. This industry is full of [likeminded] people that are driven by passion. The success of ADE lies in Amsterdam, its compactness and the time of year. For many visitors, ADE marks the beginning of a new year after the summer and the festival season.

It’s a place where people do some serious business. The one who made all this possible is Maria Jimenez, the initiator of the first event. She is my ADE Legend.”

Krijn van Noordwijk Krijn van Noordwijk is ADE’s in-house photographer. “I’ve seen the Amsterdam Dance Event grow through the years and I feel honoured to have been a part of it for the last eight. I became involved when I was talking to Britta and Alex, ADE’s creative directors. I had already photographed some DJ’s as part of a project I was working on.

We thought it matched with ADE, so I rang up Richard to try and get some backstage access [there]. He said, ‘Cool, but only if we can use the pictures as part of our promo.’ Those shoots became sort of mini backstage parties, and its products part of ADE’s personality. When my side of the project was done, they said there was no way I could stop because the pictures were so engrained in the identity. So we continued this collaboration up until now. Today almost everyone wants to be part of this campaign. To me the success of ADE lies in substance. The panellists and speakers are people of the highest calibre. Last year, I photographed Hans Zimmer, Jean-Michel Jarre, Nile Rodgers and Giorgio Moroder, just to give you an idea of the scope of the people ADE’s working with. They came in one after the other. Those people were at the origin of dance music and it shows how ADE pays homage to this heritage. It succeeds in being educative while staying accessible for everyone.”

Gary Smith Gary Smith is a journalist and publicist, and has been a moderator for ADE since day one. “I’ve been involved with ADE since its conception. Come to think of it, I was a young man when it started! I began as a moderator in panels and ever since I have been putting a lot of effort into hosting topics that nobody else was hosting. We just don’t want to talk about the obvious things, and try to go a bit further than usual. I knew even then that the Amsterdam Dance Event had a future. Amsterdam, in terms of access, is a great city. It’s compact but sophisticated and very easily accessible. Next to that, when Richard took the helm all those years ago, he implemented the networking aspect. It became a place for people to do business, and the simple fact is that people always come back to the place where they can make money, right? That’s what sets it apart from other conferences like in Miami. To me, ADE is not about business, but I do meet a lot of interesting people. That’s what it’s about if you ask me. And music of course! Although there was a time when I didn’t go out to the clubs at all because I was hosting five or six panels a day!”

Maslow Britta Möller and Alex Slagter are the stalwarts of Amsterdam design house Maslow. They’ve been ADE’s designers for over 17 years. “We started working with ADE in 1998, when the promo still only consisted of a flyer, some posters and an eight-page brochure. They’ve been our client for over 17 years and that feels really special – kind of a foster child. We met when it was 3 years old, saw it grow through puberty and now it is reaching maturity. That ADE managed to grow so successful is due to a couple of factors, among which is [its] daring – daring to fall down and pick yourself up again, always trying to be better than you were the year before, starting new initiatives, scouting for young talent and just staying humble. ADE is the most important conference within dance music on so many levels, but it will be the last organisation to pat itself on the back. To us the real legends are people like Frankie Knuckles, Gert van Veen and Joost van Bellen, who paved the way for what we’re all doing today. And of course, Richard Zijlma, who’s kind of a paragon of modesty. If you’re at the helm of an organisation that after 20 years keeps on growing more relevant... well, we take our hats off to him.”

ADE Conference The ADE Conference is expanding its program this year. De Duif and Compagnietheater have been added to the list of locations, alongside the familiar Felix Meritis, Melkweg, De Brakke Grond, De Balie and boutique hotel, The Dylan. The ADE Conference breaks down into a series of sub-conferences, each focusing on an aspect of the production and business of electronic dance music.

Aside from a slew of business-related panels on publishing, live performance, copyright and radio, among other things, ADE Pro presents ‘The Evolution of Electronic Music in 20 Records’ by Detroit techno godfather Juan Atkins. Thursday’s ‘Meet the Godfathers’ brings together music legends who were making proto-house and techno before the words were even invented. The line-up includes Manuel Göttsching of Ash Ra Tempel, Irmin Schmidt of Can, and Boris Blank of Yello, as well as Kenny ‘Dope’ Gonzalez of Masters at Work and Paul Hartnoll of Orbital.

In ‘State of the Techno Nation’, leading producers Steve Rachmad, Dave Clarke, Marcel Dettmann, Joran van Pol and Octave One discuss how the genre’s popularity has reached an all-time high. Meanwhile, ‘Have We Forgotten Modern Dance Music’s Roots?’ celebrates the origins of club music in gay culture.

93 ADE Conference

“Armin van Buuren interviews Dutch DJ legend Ben Liebrand and Belgium’s Felix de Laet – who has been seriously inspired by Van Buuren.”

Lost Frequencies – who has been seriously inspired by Van Buuren. This year, Alexander Ridha – a.k.a. Boyz Noize – celebrates the 10th anniversary of his Boysnoize label. At ADE Pro, he discusses running a 21st-century record label, his remix technique and much more.

The annual artist debate this year includes Nicky Romero and Martin Solveig in ‘Power to the Artist!‘, examining how these hugely popular figures leverage their following to affect positive change and eventually – hopefully – a better society.

94 ADE Conference

Discover new sounds at the ADE Sound Lab Hosted at the elegant Compagnietheater, ADE Sound Lab (October 15 – 17) presents an in-depth, multifaceted program, where sound synthesis, audiovisual art, and innovative ways to produce and manipulate sound are demonstrated, discussed and developed.

The three-day program features talks, Q&A’s, and demos, alongside performances, exhibitions and installations by leading artists, brands, and sound pioneers. Among the workshops on offer, you can learn how to build your own synthesisers, as well as partake in several smaller, experimental initiatives.

by Alfred Bos Sound itself comes under the spotlight at the ADE Sound Lab, supported by the Creative Industries Fund NL. The Compagnietheater hosts a number of installations that show the limitless possibilities digital technology allows to produce, present and experience sound.

The ‘Kilkhor’ installation, for instance, uses sound vibrations to sculpt and paint. Consisting of several speakers releasing sub-bass frequencies beyond the scope of the human ear, pigments will drop from the speakers onto a damp canvas and create a colourful artwork. On the other hand, Kacper Ziemianin’s ‘LightSeq’ installation creates sound by manipulating light, connecting the visual and sonic realms. These approaches open up many possibilities and can inspire new ways of working with sound, some of which will be presented at the ADE Sound Lab. Also of note, the ‘Self Pollinating Light Organ’ is played by manipulating a light-emitting pendulum, and Sober Industries presents an interactive, projection-mapped drum computer, triggering both sound and visual projections onto a geometric wall-sculpture. There’s also the ‘Game of Life Sequencer’ – a large physical interface that functions as a synthesiser module based on the principles of mathematician John Conway’s ‘Game of Life’.

103 ADE Conference

‘Modular Market’ and DIY synth-building workshops Modular synthesisers – currently enjoying a surge in relevance and popularity – are the focus of the ‘Modular Market’: the place to shop for all things synthrelated. Among the exciting new instruments to check out at the ADE Sound Lab Gear Hangout and Café is the groundbreaking Nerdsynth, which integrates a wide range of different sound chips and synthesiser designs to form both a synth and visualiser. Peter Edwards’ impressive and efficient OMSynth will also be demonstrated.

Ableton presents workshops and master classes by the people behind artists like Kölsch (DK) and Dubfire (US). Leading gear brands Roland and Moog are present as well. Moog’s Chris Howe leads the build-yourown-synth workshop, ‘Moog Werkstatt’, which is free to register for, however, taking your synthisiser home will cost €200. Alternatively, Ginko Synthese presents cheap and easy-to-build DIY modular kits.

Performances and ADE MusicTalks ADE Sound Lab hosts a series of live performances by Dutch artist/songwriter Chagall, who uses the ‘mi:mu’ glove to control sound, vocal effects and visual projections. ‘My Brain, Your Brain’ translates brain activity into sounds and images. In the ‘Modular Battles’, artists will face each other in two improvised synth-offs, featuring Richard Devine (US) and Noisia’s Thijs de Vlieger (NL) on October 15, and Sjamsoedin (NL) and Colin Benders (NL) on October 17. ADE Sound Lab also presents the premiere of ‘Detroit Swindle & the Programme’ – an audiovisual live performance built around K.A.T. (Kinesis and Audio Translator), an interactive optical instrument created by visual artist Nick Verstand.

The ADE MusicTalks include Q&A’s with Jeff Mills, Henrik Schwarz, Machinedrum, Paul Hartnoll (Orbital), Boris Blank (Yello) and Joris Voorn. ADE Sound Lab is a free program, except for the ADE MusicTalks series and live performances, which are open exclusively to ADE Card holders and conference delegates.

Taking place on Saturday (October 17) at Felix Meritis, ADE Next aims to help and inform aspiring musicians and future music industry professionals in a relaxed and informal setting. It’s also an excellent opportunity to network your way into the business.

ADE Next offers unmissable opportunities to meet and share in the knowledge of seasoned music industry professionals. Of particular interest is the chance for aspiring producers to receive expert feedback on their demo at ‘Demopitch’, the ‘Inside Top Lines’ panel and Dave Clarke’s famous ‘Demolition’ panel.

cordings celebrates its 5th anniversary with founder Hardwell and his team. In addition, successful artists such as Bakermat, Young Marco, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Lucien Foort and Michel de Heij contribute to the panels and forum discussions that explain various areas of the music business.

The business of music A series of panel discussions outline the ins, outs, dos and don’ts of presenting your music to an audience. In ‘Kickstart Your Career’, professionals relate their horror stories and how they coped with hitches.

The neighbouring rights organisation Sena presents ‘Hurray, a Hit, Now What?’: a panel that tackles how to cope with all the madness that accompanies your career suddenly taking off. ‘Ýour Music is a Serious Business. Act Like it!’ explores the entrepreneurial aspect of a DJ/producer’s career, covering contracts, copyright and company construction.

Studio sessions As well as educating on the business side of things, ADE Next also directs attention towards music production and the studio setting. The ‘In the Studio’ sessions, presented in association with Interface Magazine, are a series of hands-on workshops offering an opportunity to learn from experienced professionals in an intimate studio setting. Those ready to answer your questions include GLOWINTHEDARK, Boaz van de Beatz, DJ Memê and De Sluwe Vos. ADE Next: Saturday, October 17 @ Felix Meritis. Tickets €15.

Big Shots Text Shinta Lempers Image ( This page ) Peter van Hal

Big Shots: 20 ADE artists through the eyes of Krijn van Noordwijk Every attentive inhabitant of the Dutch capital recalls them, and every fall they’re almost impossible to overlook as they grace the entire concrete jungle of Amsterdam. The campaign photographs of the ADE are nearly as iconic as the state’s Golden Coach. Who is the man peeking through the viewfinder, waiting to magnify the right facial expression?

Who is the guy enticing a vain DJ to take his shirt off, revealing the personality behind the act? A young-at-heart father of two who makes splendid espressos and builds his own guitars, it turns out.

The house is tucked away under the trees of the beloved Vondelpark, a somersault away from the Overtoom – the broad street that connects the city’s Central District with the West Side. Krijn opens the door with a bright smile. Inside, he offers to make an espresso – his specialty. We finish the coffee upstairs on the roof terrace, where the very last of the summer sunshine salutes us and his wife.

Krijn van Noordwijk has been photographing the artists who perform at ADE since 2007: “It started as an accident. I took a photo of a friend of mine, Cablejuice, and when I met with Maslow (Britta Möller and Alex Slagter) I told them I’d like to shoot more DJ’s. We then came up with the idea to start shooting artists during ADE. Maslow had been working for ADE since 1995 and they were just about to kick-start the new logo and identity. Alex gave Richard Zijlma a call and he loved the idea immediately. He told us, ‘If we can use the photos for our campaign, we have a deal!’” And that’s how it came about that the portrait photographer, with his keen eye for capturing the artist’s soul, became the campaign shooter for the Amsterdam Dance Event. “It’s perfect for me because I make free work with ADE and the designers, and sometimes it ends up in the campaign. I don’t have to do a lot of concessions.”

In 2008, Krijn bundled the most beautiful photos into a book named ‘DJ’: “For me the series was finished then, but ADE wanted me to continue, so I did. And there will be a lot more photos in the future.” Another passion of Krijn’s, making videos, may well intertwine with his portraiture as he experiments with moving images for the next campaign. This year, Krijn takes up residency in his pop-up studio at the familiar Felix Meritis again, where he pulls the artists in. Sometimes he only has five minutes: “A lot happens in the first minutes so I have to be really quick. But I know how to photograph someone instantly. I am a very hard-boiled photographer!”

ARTHUR BAKER For the first official ADE photoshoot in 2006, Krijn, Alex and Britta were allocated a staircase in Felix Meritis. There wasn’t yet a list of artists to be photographed and none of the delegates knew who they were. Arthur Baker was at ADE and the three were determined to capture him in their improvised studio. Though reluctant at first, the New York producer totally opened up after seeing Krijn’s work. In the meantime, Krijn came up with the idea to photograph him bare-chested. Eventually Baker was so full of enthusiasm that not only did he let Krijn photograph him without a shirt, but told all the other artists about the studio too.

109

XXX Text XXX Image

HARDWELL The following year, the ‘staircase booth’ was upgraded to a photo studio in the attic of Felix Meritis. The place was shared with the ADE Next conference so there couldn’t be any shoots on the Saturday. Hardwell – 19 years old at the time – was still relatively unknown but had already caught Alex’s attention. This particular shoot was postponed several times as the young DJ was caught up networking at the conference. Now, eight years later, Hardwell has taken the world by storm, but is still that benevolent guy, relaxed and normal.

DJ KRUST This photo was taken more recently; in 2014. The story behind it has everything to do with Krijn’s admiration for the DJ. Upon welcoming Krust to his booth, he looked at the artist’s hair and wondered if it was supposed to be a blockhead. After the shoot, Krijn manipulated the hairstyle accordingly and sent it to the unsuspecting Krust. Funnily enough, the DJ immediately went to his hairdressers with the photo, saying that’s how his hairdo should look!

111

RICHIE HAWTIN In 2008 Krijn, Britta and Alex had cobbled together their photo studio near the entrance of the dance music festival Extrema Outdoor. After a failed attempt to shoot Richie Hawtin before his show, the DJ promised to return the second he was done playing. When the moment finally came, Extrema’s Marieke Smits came to announce that the shoot was off as Hawtin had to hurry to his next performance. The helicopter was already running but Hawtin, packed and ready to go, chose to ignore the festival crew. Krijn knew how to position him within three seconds. After another ten, Smits had lost her patience and dragged Hawtin away.

The hand in the photo is a silent testimony of that.

112

XXX Text XXX Image

QUESTLOVE Another act to have gained Krijn’s adoration is The Roots. This shoot took place at Lowlands in 2008. After The Roots performed, Questlove and Black Thought were to come to a specially assigned dressing room for the shoot. There was no sign of them but, in the meantime, Nomi Ruiz – vocalist for Hercules and Love Affair – just happened to show up...

NOMI RUIZ ...As Krijn and Alex were photographing Ruiz, the door burst open with a bang and the room shook. There stood Questlove. Ruiz – having been scared half to death – had suddenly disappeared. Krijn, a bit nervous, began to explain the shoot when Questlove cut him off by raising his hand and giving him a penetrating look, simply saying, somewhat enigmatically, “We assume.”

114

XXX Text XXX Image

DIMITRI In 2007 Dimitri announced he was withdrawing from his DJ’ing career to work at a care farm.

He played his last gig at Valtifest, and the photo studio was located in a dark and mouldy concrete burrow underneath a slipway. Surrounded by a large and colourful entourage, he approached the studio noticeably tired, but also relieved. It was a charged moment, captured by Krijn in a photograph that was frequently used in the DJ’s farewell press releases.

Today Dimitri is back behind the decks, but the moment has remained with the photo’s creators ever since.

115

ACTION BRONSON At Rotterdam Beats in 2011, Krijn and Alex stayed at the same hotel as the American rapper and chef Action Bronson. The two headed to the artist’s floor, where the scent of cannabis acted as a compass to his room. He was sitting there like a king, on a chair way too small to fit his corpulent body. The room had become a kind of horizontal chimney, somehow ignored by the smoke alarms. Next to him stood a side table topped with a mountain of weed. He was wearing nothing more than a T-shirt and boxer shorts, looking the antithesis to hip-hop’s golden chains, proud machismo and designer clothing.

116

SURGEON ADE’s photography tag-team had been invited to shoot at the Mysteryland dance music festival several times. They always set up shop next to the artist entrance, which turned the studio into an allegorical hoop net. In 2008 it was Surgeon’s turn to be captured by Krijn: “We always take good care of the artists, offering them high-quality drinks and bites.”

Surgeon and his Polish girlfriend were surprised when a bottle of Wyborowa – which literally translates as ‘excellent’ – was pulled out of a cooling box, and the meeting resulted in a super cosy, if slightly tipsy, afternoon!

117

CARL COX Carl Cox had long graced the photographer and designers’ wish-list. The place of execution was to be Rotterdam hotel The Manhattan. In the lobby, Carl’s managers came up to Krijn and Alex, stating that they only had 10 minutes for the shoot. Upstairs Carl was waiting in a meeting room. Seemingly ignorant of the time limit, he leafed through Krijn’s portfolio until someone knocked on the door. Carl ignored it and the team began positioning lights for the shoot. A telephone rang, Carl picked it up, and some mumbling could be heard. “Then,” says Alex, “He raised his voice and shouted, ‘What do you mean the plane is waiting? It’s my own damn plane!’ He excused himself and calmly returned to his position, gazing into an illuminated ADE cube. The photo was used for the ADE campaign a year later.

NILE RODGERS At ADE 2013, Tommie Sunshine hosted a panel with Nile Rodgers. The ADE photo team knew Sunshine personally and had asked him to bring the American music legend along for a shoot. Krijn, who builds guitars at home in his free time, saw their mutual love for the instrument as the perfect opportunity to chit-chat with his hero. Staring at Rodgers’ guitar, Alex remembered how attached the man was to it; how he’d never lose sight of it, never mind let someone else play it. At that moment Krijn asked Rodgers if he could try it out, and before Alex knew it, Krijn was playing Rodgers’ cherished ‘Hitmaker’ without an amplifier. It was a pure and loving moment.

FLAVOR FLAV Public Enemy were performing at the Amsterdam pop venue Paradiso. It was the winter of 2013. Before this photo was taken, Flavor Flav was hungry, cranky and determined to wear a white cap for the shoot; a wish that led Alex and him to the second hand shop Zipper, where they found one for €2.50. Then Alex arranged a chicken sandwich from a local butcher shop brimming with elderly people in pale-coloured clothes: “And there I stood, next to me Flavor Flav, gold-chained, with sunglasses, gold teeth and a watch larger than a wall clock. But he was happy as a child from that moment on!”

120

XXX Text XXX Image

TOMMIE SUNSHINE Alex had studied the line-up at 2007’s TodaysArt festival and didn’t recognise many of the listed artists. The name Tommie Sunshine intrigued him though, and a photo on the internet – sunglasses, long hair – even more so. The Brooklyn musician appeared in a marvellous suit, his face covered by a pair of huge sunglasses from his own brand. He would never take those glasses off, certainly not for a photo. Krijn being Krijn, he wanted to depict Sunshine as a friendly Jesus figure – without the sunglasses of course. Somehow he managed to do so.

121

XXX Text XXX Image

MODESELEKTOR This photo isn’t Krijn’s favourite from all those he took of German band Modeselektor, but it does remind him of his first encounter with them. It was in 2007 at the interdisciplinary festival STRP. The guys looked exhausted, but were willing to pose and very cheerful. Commenting on their shirts, it became clear why the artists looked so tired: Sebastian Szary had just become a father and Gernot Bronsert was due to become one at any minute, prepared to leave the festival at a moment’s notice, show or no show. The shirts are a nod to the absurd situation of fathers on tour.

122

XXX Text XXX Image

KEVIN SAUNDERSON The same year Krijn shot Arthur Baker, he and his art directors, Alex and Britta, also met Detroit DJ and producer Kevin Saunderson – a tall, easygoing guy. During the photoshoot, the music legend suddenly donned the earphones of his smartphone to call his cleaning lady back in the States. Why? He planned to fly home in time to accompany his mother to church that coming Sunday. The question was if his charwoman could get his suit and a white shirt ready. Simply adorable.

123

XXX Text XXX Image

SEBASTIEN TELLIER This photo was taken after a show at the Melkweg pop venue in late 2012. The show was a steaming mix of do-it-yourself makeshift props, half-baked blinking lights and an overly active smoke machine. Drunk on vodka and shoeless, Sebastian Tellier executed a severely stretched version of his track ‘La Ritournelle’. After the show, Tellier left the stage, headed directly into the photo studio, looked into the lens and that was it.

124

XXX Text XXX Image

PAUL KALKBRENNER At the Welcome to the Future dance festival in 2007, the day’s wish-list included Speedy J, Chris Liebing and Paul Kalkbrenner. When Britta left the studio to mobilise the latter, she returned with more than the expected one or two friends. No, the DJ was accompanied by an entourage of about 20 people! It turned out that they were shooting scenes for the film ‘Berlin Calling’ and they thought the situation might make good movie material. It didn’t make the final cut, but stage manager Nikki Schuurs did appear in the film as she was flanking Kalkbrenner on stage.

125

XXX Text XXX Image

MAD MIKE BANKS If you bump into Underground Resistance and Juan Atkins, you do your utmost best to get them in front of the camera; there’s no doubt about that. It was at STRP 2007, and although shooting Atkins went effortlessly, UR’s Mad Mike Banks was a different story. Alex decided to forget about the shoot and just sit down with him for a coffee. After an hour of sincere conversation, complete with showing each other pictures of their kids, Alex asked him if he still wasn’t feeling the photo thing. Banks rose up, walked up to Krijn in his booth and said, “You get one click.” Krijn obediently took a single shot and answered with a confident ‘done’, leaving the techno pioneer speechless.

126

DR LEKTROLUV Sometimes serendipity makes a situation so hilarious that it enters into personal legend.

At 2008’s Mysteryland festival, Dr Lektroluv was invited to Krijn’s pop-up photo studio.

Alex and Krijn picked him up at the main stage in a golf cart. The masked DJ was wearing a new suit, having exchanged his trademark doctor’s coat for a slightly cooler silver jacket.

Richard Zijlma had also dropped by and, after the shoot, he, Alex, the Doctor, and some friends hopped into a van. They were dropped off in a forest near the festival and proceeded to get hopelessly lost. Lektroluv, still masked and occasionally murmuring stuff, left the others crying with laughter.

MR. OIZO Krijn met another of his heroes, Mr. Oizo, during the STRP festival in 2007. Mr. Oizo literally translates as ‘Mr. Bird’, a detail that evoked the idea (“We thought it was funny”) of incorporating a feather into the shoot. They met in an elevator; Mr. Oizo – that day never without a cigarette in the corner of his mouth – and Alex, who felt increasingly uncomfortable. Oizo must have been tired. There was hardly any communication and his lack of enthusiasm was even more obvious than the language barrier. During the shoot, the French producer accepted the feather with a sigh and inserted it somewhere in his hair: “It was one of the hardest attempts at shooting someone who gave zero fucks at that moment!”

Visit the Urbanears Hideout at The View on October 15, 16 and 17 to see these photos exhibited at the Krijn van Noordwijk Staircase Expo!
