Workshop with Alice and Oscar

Workshop with Alice and Oscar

Alice from Mercurial Tones and Oscar from Underdog have put together a full-day workshop on techno production for ADE.

They'll be covering everything from track structure and sound design to creative workflows and social media tips.

It doesn't matter if you're just starting out or if you've been making tracks for years - the idea is for everyone to learn something new and get inspired.

It's also a great chance to meet other people in the scene and exchange ideas.

You can sign up for just the morning session, the afternoon one, or stick around for the whole day.

It's up to you and what fits your schedule best.

Morning session: (2 hours) - (TECHNO ARCHITECTURE)

•⁠ ⁠Hooks in techno - 20m

•⁠ ⁠Fixing a track on the go - 1h


Afternoon session: (3,5 hours) - (TECHNO CRAFT)

•⁠ ⁠Creative workflows — theory & mindmapping - 1h

•⁠ ⁠Sample flipping session? — everyone produces on their own laptop - 1,5h

•⁠ ⁠Bonus: Industry Guest - 30 m

•⁠ ⁠General Q&A - 30m


IMPORTANT: Please bring your own headphones if you are attending the afternoon session.

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.
