A/V live performances that showcase the duality between electronic soundscapes and visual art

Tati au Miel - Rêverie (Live Performance)

Tati au Miel, a multi-disciplinary artist born and raised in Montreal, presents Rêverie, a new live performance that invites ADE Pro Pass Holders into a state of daydreaming or being lost in thought. This guiding concept encourages reflections on the duality between the physical and virtual, the organic and artificial, and the enigmatic dimensions of life.

The exclusive performance at ADE Pro features an interplay of live instrumentation, including bells, flutes, sensors, distorted vocals, and electronic soundscapes. Tati's performance, titled ‘Rêverie,’ is an immersive live audiovisual performance presented by the leading festival for live electronic music, MUTEK Montréal, the Amsterdam-based platform for digital art and experimental music, FIBER Festival.

10 Years of shesaid.so Mixer: Aluna b2b Storm Mollison DJ set

Over the past decade, shesaid.so has supported women and gender-nonconforming individuals at various stages of their careers. Today, the community has grown to more than 20,000 members and nearly 20 chapters worldwide, with a mission to connect and support its members through events, mentoring programs, business opportunities, and educational content. To celebrate, shesaid.so is hosting a mixer and networking session at ADE Pro powered by Ballantine’s True Music Fund, with a special b2b between Aluna and Storm Mollison of Noir Fever.

machìna x Roelof Knol Interactive A/V performance: 'Action'

machìna plays a live dance music performance centred around a singular drum machine at ADE Pro, with music from her latest release 'Action'. ‘Action’, is an ongoing series inspired by creating dance music from essential sources of rhythm and sound. The abstraction of simple techno beats and the processed overlaying of musical percussions is at the core of this exploration into the depth and complexity of techno.

Visual artist Roelof Knol adds an extra dimension to the performance, inviting the audience to expand their auditory experience and immerse themselves in a captivating audio-visual journey. He will create a real-time light performance defined by bold, minimalist aesthetics. This collaboration will allow for an interactive, analogue approach to showcasing the sound creation process, fostering a new connection between music, visuals, and the present moment.

At the heart of ADE Pro

Felix Meritis has been at the core of ADE Pro for years. This year will be even more special.


Lumus Instruments Presents: Polynode


Enjoy one of many live intense, immersive minute spectacles presented by Lumus Instruments at Felix Meritis.

The interconnectedness between our bodies, minds and advanced digital systems is constantly evolving and producing new realities that we as humans do not have full access to. We exist within a complex superstructure of interconnected systems, most of which are beyond the limits of our perception.

With the POLYNODE series, Lumus Instruments makes these systems tangible. These large technological bodies use virtual nodes within an audio- visual sequence that express themselves through light and sound. Starting from simple patterns and a single computational network, the behaviour grows into more complex ones that put us into a state of flow while observating.

Polynode will run throughout all four days of ADE Pro, from ADE Wednesday to ADE Saturday.


Secret Artists in Residence Live Performance

One of last year's highlight was the culmination of the Secret Artists in Residence program at ADE Pro, which led to a live performance where Colin Benders, Lady Starlight, and Steve Rachmad aka STERAC. This year, new artists take residence in the attic of Felix Meritis, will they get the space and time to create, jam, and inspire. Join us for an exclusive opportunity to witness these talented artists in action. Get up close and personal with their artistic process and gain a deeper appreciation for their craft.

This year's performance wil undoubtedly be as exciting as last year's, so make sure to be at Felix Meritis throughout the ADE week and at the closing of the Pro Conference.

The Secret Artists in Residence during the ADE Pro week: Andert Tysma, Sie Medway Smith, Luna Ludmila, Kaap, Loradeniz, Maarten Vos, Serti, VNTM, KINK, Raredub, Wallis, SHE/HER, Annebel, Rosa, Indosusan, Estroe, machìna, Iris Rijskamp, Hekkla, and Small Solar System Body.

Crossovers at ADE Pro - immersive experiences

"We've been expanding the ADE Arts & Culture program over the past three years, with the goal to make art easily accessible for more groups of people. For it's fourth consecutive year, it's only logical that the cross-overs between electronic music and other art forms also find its way into the ADE Pro Conference. ADE Pro Pass Holders can now immerse themselves in audio/visual performances during the full week of the Conference, next to networking, learning, and sharing knowledge." – Jan-Willem van de Ven, Director of Amsterdam Dance Event

The Pros

Duncan Stutterheim On Entrepreneurship and Innovation in the Entertainment Industry

The world of entertainment is constantly evolving, and co-founder of ID&T Duncan Stutterheim is known for his forward-thinking approach in this dynamic industry. He discusses how creativity and innovation are the driving forces behind success in any business, large or small. Duncan illustrates the importance of taking risks and thinking outside the box.

At the ADE Pro Conference, Stutterheim provides valuable insights on topics such as disruptive innovation’, the power of community building, and the significance of a strong company culture. These themes are not only relevant to the entertainment sector but also offer valuable lessons for entrepreneurs and professionals across all industries.


In Conversation with KI/KI

One of the most in demand artists of today joins ADE Pro for an up-close conversation with DJ Mag. KI/KI will exclusively open up about how she keeps a balance between main stages and more intimate venues and ‘underground’ community events on ADE Wednesday. It’s fair to say she’s pushed trance’s revival forward and has had a big impact on the genre’s popularity, a topic which will be explored by the Dutch artist and DJ Mag. They'll also dive into her recent string of live shows and her music production. And of course, this session will dive into her announcement of the free event she will be doing on ADE Wednesday in the Gashouder in Amsterdam-West, which is her way of ‘giving back to the community that has supported her on her journey’. Pro Pass Holders can join this party as well as people who signed up via this link.

10 Years On: Celebrating the Legacy of ‘The Godfather of House’ Frankie Knuckles

The Blessed Madonna, Cinthie, Tedd Patterson, and Founder, President & Executive Director of the Frankie Knuckles Foundation, Frederick Dunson talk you through the legacy of Frankie Knuckles in a conversation with Maria May.

The Frankie Knuckles Foundation and Defected Records come together to commemorate 10 Years since the passing of Frankie Knuckles regarded by many as the architect of the global House sound. Frankie’s musical influence is profound and relevant to a whole new generation of producers and DJs. His legacy lives on with the Frankie Knuckles Foundation. Here we examine Frankie’s contribution to house music and the importance of heritage in dance music today by the DJs and people that were there.
