ADE 2025 at Paradiso: full lineup revealed

ADE Wednesday opens with Argentina’s most wanted duo, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso. Lifelong friends and fearless innovators, they fuse jazz chords, gospel vocals, live instrumentation, and electronic fire into something utterly their own. Expect a set driven by curiosity and eccentricity, which defies all expectations.

As the night deepens, a different kind of light rises, this time, straight from Los Angeles. TOKiMONSTA, the Grammy-nominated producer and sonic shapeshifter, brings her signature mix of genre-blurring heat to Amsterdam. Her set glows with West Coast warmth, fusing smooth beats, electronic funk, and dreamy grooves into something effortlessly magnetic.

Just when you think the night’s peaked, WORSHIP storms in, brought to you by High Tea, Amsterdam’s own drum & bass label. Expect high-intensity, genre-bending energy and enough sonic diversity to shake the walls.

As if that weren’t enough, AVAION takes over the floor with sounds that make you dance or drift away. The producer, instrumentalist, and songwriter blends future and deep house with acoustic textures, fusing electronic beats, organic elements, and soulful vocals. Be ready for melodies that hit as hard on the dancefloor as they do in the heart. Paradiso becomes a shifting playground where rhythm takes control. There’s no doubt: this night will carry a distinctive sound, bold, unpredictable, and bound to leave you wanting more.

ADE Thursday kicks off with Pongo, the electrifying Angolan-Portuguese artist fusing pop, dancehall, and the high-voltage rhythms of kuduro. Her sound is fierce and impossible to resist, the perfect spark to ignite the night.

Keeping the energy high, Skelertakes the stage next. As the creator of the Hardwave subgenre, he’s been instrumental in launching Wave into the wider EDM universe, blending cinematic emotion with heavy bass and hypnotic intensity.

As the night hits full stride, KETTAMA takes control. Known for his high-impact sets and no-frills approach to house, Ireland’s sledgehammer DJ of the moment isn’t here to wind things down; he’s here to seal the deal.

On ADE Friday, we welcome Takuya Nakamura, the Tokyo-born multi-instrumentalist known for his boundary-pushing soundscapes. A master of both acoustic and electronic instruments, he’s a true force in the global jungle scene. Fusing elements of minimal techno, jazz, and soul, he invites you into a space where structure dissolves and sound becomes sensation.

And to guide you deep into the night, just right, 4am Kru keeps the energy high till morning light. This London-based duo has been tearing through the UK jungle scene post-lockdown with their explosive live shows. Channeling a raw spirit, their sets hit that sweet spot between old-school chaos and future-facing fire.

The energy flows straight into one of the closest-knit collectives behind the decks, a symbiotic collaboration as Jeff Mills presents Tomorrow Comes The Harvest. Together with keyboardist Jean Phi Dary & percussionist Prabhu Edouard, the trio uses music as a pathway beyond the limits of consciousness. Improvisation is their tool for exploring the unknown, crossing sonic boundaries, and breaking rhythmic expectations on ADE Friday.

And right when you feel grounded, the rhythm pulls you somewhere new. Tribes steps in to close the night with heat and intent. With pulsating sounds from across the African diaspora, this is more than a celebration; it’s a ritual in motion. Expect deep grooves, unity through movement, and a dance floor you won’t forget.

On ADE Saturday & Sunday, as the rhythms of Friday settle, a new current rises. Rotterdam’s own Speedy J presents STOOR Live, raw electronics and live visuals shaped in real time. No rehearsals, no second takes, and nothing quite like it again.
