Touching Bass x Cape St. Francis

Touching Bass x Cape St. Francis

Touching Bass and Cape St. Francis join forces to take over the
Rush Hour Store during ADE on October 19th. Two mainstays as
labels, club nights and curators in their respective cities,
they'll strengthen that Amsterdam via London connection with their
extended family laying down special live sets and spontaneuous
b2b's throughout the day.

D'Monk will bless us with a analogue-heavy live set to celebrate
the release of his debut EP Shine, dropping via Touching Bass just
in time for the event.

To mark the occasion we also have limited TB x CSF merch designed
by Pointless Illustrations exclusively available on the day, as
well as upfront white labels.

Run by Errol and Alex Rita, Touching Bass has quietly become one
of the UK’s most essential movements—building a community through
a record label, club nights, an NTS Radio show, and a concert
series, all with a focus on deep, soulful selections and real
connection.

Cape St. Francis continue to push boundaries and breakdown genre's
in clubs throughout Amsterdam, curating forward thinking line-ups
with a focus on the future whilst paying homage to tradition.
Their residents will dig deep into their record shelves and may
even pull out some forthcoming test presses for a taste of what's
to come on the label.

It's not often two platforms come together in such an intimate and
incredible sounding spot so be sure to get down early, secure that
spot and enjoy the music.

Most festival events have an age limit of 18+ (and sometimes even 21+ or 23+). These are Dutch governmental rules which state that below the age of 18 you are not allowed to enter a club.

Please double-check the promoter's or venue's website to be sure you can access the event!

Yes, the Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events. Even if a festival event is sold out, you can still access the event with your ADE Pro Pass wristband. During ADE there are over 500 festival events and hundreds more cultural and conference events you can enter with the wristband. One thing to keep in mind is that there is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for ADE Pro wristband holders. This means that, for some of the more crowded events, you have to arrive early to ensure attendance. Once capacity is reached, ADE Pro holders will be let into the event on a one in-one-out basis.

We dance together, so please be mindful of yourself and each other. We expect an open attitude from our visitors towards other guests, regardless of their origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion and age. If you see or experience any unwanted attention, harassment or behavior of any kind that makes you uncomfortable, please speak out and notify staff.

Please keep in mind: we love being your annual host, therefore, we would like to ask you to enjoy yourself responsibly.
