Let's Get Sampling and Create your Global Dance Hit with CHRSTPHR & Cr2 Records

Speakers: CHRSTPHR (Artist), Owen Kiernan (Head of Digital, Cr2 Records), Rupert Ellis (Lead Educational Division, Cr2 Records), Bas de Vries (Educational Division, Cr2 Records)

Level: Intermediate


Join platinum-selling artist CHRSTPHR for a special sampling workshop at ADE Lab. With tracks like “The Voodoo Babe” and “Baiana,” and collaborations with Matt Sassari, Wh0, Quarterhead and Federico Scavo, CHRSTPHR has carved out a sound that connects with dancefloors all over the world.

To celebrate the release of his new sample pack, he is bringing those sounds straight to ADE Lab. In this session, CHRSTPHR will show you how he builds his tracks, walk you through the samples, and then invite you to dive in and start creating on the spot. It is your chance to get inside his workflow, pick up new techniques, and experiment with his sounds in your own way.

The Cr2 Records team will be around to answer questions, give feedback and share tips as you work!
And here is the exciting part: finish your demo at home and send it over to the dedicated Cr2 A&R team, exclusively available for the workshop attendees, who will stay available for a round of feedback on your created track. Two lucky producers will be selected to make use of the Cr2 guidance for a whole year, helping you develop your sound and provide any feedback on your projects.


Please note
: This session is designed as a hands-on workshop with limited capacity to enhance creativity and collaboration. Sign-up forms will be available at the Sign-up desk at Lab Patio, next to WestWeelde (Klönneplein 4, 1014 DD Amsterdam) on the day of the event.

Sign-ups open at 11:00 and will be on a first-come, first-served basis until all spots are filled.
