Telepathic Instruments Pop-up - by Kevin Parker (Tame Impala) and friends | Friends x 750
From October 22–26, Telepathic Instruments takes over Filling Pieces in the heart of Amsterdam Dance Event for a five-day pop-up. After selling out twice in minutes, this rare opportunity invites producers, artists, songwriters—and the simply curious—to try Orchid for themselves.
Conceived over a decade ago by Kevin Parker (Tame Impala) as a personal songwriting tool, Orchid is a breakthrough instrument designed to help musicians find what’s on their mind. With its intuitive chord-generating interface, 3 synth engines and a wide array of patterns, patches and FX, Orchid takes care of complex chord maths so artists can feel out a song, wherever it may take them.
Orchid has already become one of the most talked-about new instruments in music technology, quietly shaping the sound and songwriting of musicians around the world, including Kid Cudi, Fred Again, Joy Anonymous and Sara Landry to name a few.
Meet the team and try Orchid at the Filling Pieces store from 11am - 7pm on October 22–26.

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.
ADE is proud partner of the Celebrate Safe campaign.
