Amsterdam Dance Event 2022 Party Guide

Since the 1990s, Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) has transcended and transformed into an influential and educational gathering for electronic music. The event has hosted a variety of powerful musical genres and subcultures that continue to range from the experimental to mainstream. As a powerful medium, ADE strongly showcases all developments within the electronic music industry, and these developments have all impacted dance culture to this day on a global scale.

You can also look forward to a growing list of parties that ADE will be creating as well — such as Audio Obscura taking over the RAW Factory with underground legends Adriatique, Âme, Anetha, Blawan, and many others. Speedy J will also be presenting STOOR LIVE alongside Dasha Rush, ROD, Rødhåd, and Surgeon. Lastly, Pan-Pot returns for another night with Loveland at Warehouse Houthavens.

All event dates will take place October 19-23, 2022.

DGTL

On Friday, Berlin sensation Ben BĂśhmer provides one of the hottest tickets in town. One to watch since his 2019 debut album Breathing, BĂśhmer’s music is the perfect representation of that euphoric feeling once the sun goes down during a summertime festival. Hosting slam-down performances at this year’s Amsterdam edition, fans can expect more of the same euphoric feelings for ADE’s Friday night, with sultry sessions from the likes of Floating Points, Fatima Yamaha, and Jayda G — who already proved her skills as a dancing instructor during last year’s gig at DGTL ADE 2021.

October 22nd

DGTL

Saturday and the festival feels kick up even further, as DGTL gears up for its gargantuan final day. After a massive debut at DGTL ADE 2021, The Blessed Madonna makes her much-lauded return, this time bringing her We Still Believe concept to Amsterdam. With sets from Job Jobse, Seth Troxler, HAAi & Romy, and an exciting back-to-back with Derrick Carter and Marea herself, the energy levels at NDSM Docklands will reach a boiling crescendo, perfectly poised for a monstrous climax as DGTL closes out the weekend with its darkest programming yet. Dax J, KI/KI, and Paula Temple form an iconic, heavy-hitting techno line-up that should shake ADE to its foundations and bring the crowd to its knees.

Tickets for DGTL ADE 2022 are on sale now at the link below, and all info on the line-up, programming, and times can be found at ade.dgtl.nl.

Speedy J Presents STOOR Live

On Saturday, October 22, Speedy J and the STOOR crew return to Paradiso for a second chapter. STOOR live is a fully improvised hardware jam between changing musicians, led by techno great Speedy J.

Stage design, light, and a team of video artists are directed by spatial designer Karl Klomp — especially for STOOR, he designed a stage and video design that bridges the gap between audience and artist fades. By means of robotic cameras and video hardware hacks on an LED video object, image and sound become a symbiosis of unbridled electronics.
