Foreword

Gearing Up For A New Home

As ADE’s growth escalated, it was only inevitable that we would have to add some new permanent abodes to the programme. It is with great pleasure to announce that we have housed various aspects from Gear and MusicTalks at the De Brakke Grond and Compagnietheater; two venues expertly suited to Playground’s needs. These central and established venues will play host to a plethora of high-calibre music-tech firms and MusicTalks. I’m especially looking forward to hearing Hans Zimmer talk about his career in Hollywood, as well as experiencing the new 4DSound system.

Playground 2014 will also be home to a new and improved Art Route, a contemporary selection of music films, a series of excellent pop-up stores and exhibitions throughout Amsterdam and more concerts and showcases than you can imagine. Playground is the part of ADE for you to become really immersed in; so kick back, and make yourself at home.

ADE 2014 8 ADE 2014 9 ADE 2014 10 ADE Playground Extends the ADE Vibe

ADE Playground is a daytime event that extends the spirit of the club nights into daytime hours, spread- ing the ADE vibe all over the city of Amsterdam. In addition to ADE’s 2000+ performances, ADE Play- ground offers a (largely) free-access daytime programme of dance-related exhibitions, music-related movies and documentaries, DJ showcases, gear master classes and public Q&As at various notable locations in the city’s downtown area and beyond.

Open to conference participants as well, ADE Playground aims to spread the congenial and informal atmosphere of the ADE Conference to the city streets, bridging the mental and spatial gap between the dance professionals at ADE’s daytime hubs, Felix Meritis, the Dylan Hotel and the various sub-conference centres, and the audience that makes ADE’s club nights such a success. ADE Play- ground breaks down into five themes: Art, Movies, Gear. MusicTalks and Pop-Up.

A fair share of the ADE Playground activities are free- entry, however, some are only open to ADE Card holders. For more information about the ADE Card, see the Festi- val & Playground section of the ADE website.

Here are some ADE Playground highlights, but for the full programme and detailed info, see the Playground section of the ADE website.

ART Art is one of the pillars of ADE Playground. Following up the 2013 events, held at multiple galleries around Am- sterdam, a series of entry-free exhibitions will highlight various aspects of music and club culture.

Much of the discussion about Happa has (understandably) centred on his age. But strip away Tickets: Free entrance the child star hype and you’re left with a gifted producer who has an innate understanding of moving dance floors. Happa’s music is coloured by powerful industrial techno textures, but his rhythms and arrangements are influenced by UK bass music. “I do like a lot of aggres- sion in dance music,” he says. When Loefah played “Boss” on Rinse FM in 2012 it started a chain of events that kick-started Samir’s career. Mary Anne Hobbs was an immediate supporter, and she introduced Samir to Four Tet, who commissioned him to remix a track, “Jupi- ters,” for his label. Samir went on to release tracks and remixes through an impressive list of labels—Church, Bleep, Domino, R&S, Boomkat Editions—and last week he announced PT/5 Records, a label he’s starting alongside Al Gill whose first release has remixes from Truss and Shifted. As we discovered on the road with Samir in Leeds, Milan and London, the backdrop to all of this has been pretty normal. Samir lives with his family and at- tends a music college in Leeds (his teacher didn’t know much about Samir’s modest fame). We also heard about Samir’s struggle with Crohn’s disease, a debilitating ill- ness that looms over his life but afforded him the time at home to develop his brutal signature sound.
