Niels Orens + echofarmer (live)
Line-up
Niels Orens + echofarmer (live)
Niels Orens
Niels Orens (BE) is an electronic producer and live performer exploring the intersection of acoustic instrumentation and immersive electronic sound design. His music transforms organic textures into deeply atmospheric, emotionally resonant soundscapes that prioritize tension, spatial depth, and sonic detail over traditional song structures. Orens crafts a sound that moves between fractured breakbeats, haunting low-end pressure, distorted textures and fragile melodic moments — balancing raw intensity with moments of quiet stillness. His work explores themes of alienation, loneliness and internal unrest, translating emotional detachment into immersive, slow-burning compositions that feel both physically immediate and deeply human.
His live performances extend the emotional and cinematic quality of his recordings through immersive audiovisual elements and precise sound design, offering an intimate glimpse into an evolving body of work that continues to push deeper into experimentation, texture and emotional clarity.
echofarmer
echofarmer (BE) is the alias of Brussels-based producer and musician Arne Nuyts. With a sound as suited for the club as for the couch, echofarmer crafts enchanting miniverses. Hyperdetailed percussion and deep subs fuse with vocal-like synths, acoustic instruments, and found sounds. Combining childlike joy with surgical precision, every live set is infectiously unique, all unified by echofarmer’s tactile approach to sound and relentless appetite for experimentation.
From teletubbie hyperjungle to bedroomstep and pillowcore, echofarmer blurs the line between dance floor and blanket fort.

Festival FAQ
ADE Festival tickets are sold individually by the festival event organizers, but you’ll also be able to purchase them through the ticket links on the event pages on our website here.
Not to worry! Make sure to contact the event (or their ticketing provider) you are visiting as soon as possible with as many details about your order; name, email address, amount of tickets, etc. Once they've recovered your order, the tickets can be resent to your email.
Need help to find your event's contact details? Message us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.
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 ADE Pro Pass grants you access to all ADE official festival events.
Be aware though that there are over 1,200 events during ADE that you can enter with the Pro Pass wristband and that ADE cannot guarantee access. There is a limited capacity that each venue can take into account for Pro Pass holders. This means for some of the more crowded events you have to arrive early. Once capacity is reached, we will go over in a full-for-now policy. The festival event organizer will decide when and if more people are allowed to go in.
The ADE Pro Pass is the perfect fit if you are planning on enjoying the combination of day and night events. If you want guaranteed access to a particular festival event, we advise you to get a single festival ticket instead.
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.
