Basements & Underground

Sunday, 10 October 2021
Thumping basslines pounding through your bones, flashing lights that blind you, losing all your friends and making new ones; the only place where sweat and love go hand in hand. If you’re not afraid of the dark, and ready to get your basement-game going, we’ve got just the selection of events for you.

AURA invites PAX-ROMANA | ADE
Radion is known for hosting Breakfast Club at ADE every year, a concept that used to be exclusively for the very early birds among us. Since we're all early ravers this year, Radion hosts more daytime events than just the quickly sold-out Breakfast Club editions, like AURA invites PAX-ROMANA to kick off their ADE program. The latter is debuting indoors, while AURA hosts the Main Room of Radion, a venue that historically was the academic centre of dentistry in The Netherlands.

Cuttin Headz x Boogeyman
Shelter is quite the literal take on the category of this rough guide and embodies the safe haven feeling clubbers often look for. On ADE Friday, Shelter's got NYC born Martinez Brothers' label, Cuttin Headz, on the bill. They are presenting Boogeyman, a sub-label fronted by Jesse Calosso. Don't forget to bring your earplugs for this one, as their house/tech-house will fill up the room.

BRET & Friends
Hosting events every ADE day this year, BRET welcomes you during the day in their signature red container-built night club. Snappy hi-hats, sharp basslines and pounding kicks: BRET & Friends on Friday is a good way to get to know them better. Names like Bastienne, Mahabe and Marie Montextier, are friendly faces that will be playing Friday afternoon, with a line-up that is still expanding.


Draaimolen x Herrensauna
Draaimolen Festival is known to organize events where electronic music and visual art meet. Draaimolen has invited Berlin collective Herrensauna for an ADE crossover event, that sold out very quickly. The two strike down on ADE Saturday at De Werf, an industrial location that's new to ADE. People who like pounding, melodic techno, and rough beats, can indulge themselves in careless dancing all day, as Draaimolen is comitted to keep the dancefloor a place for dancing and just living the moment, without interruption.
