Amsterdam Dance Event Marks 30th Anniversary with Major ADE Pro Speaker Reveal<\/h1>\n

As the Amsterdam Dance Event<\/strong> prepares to celebrate its milestone 30th anniversary this October, the organizers have unveiled a significant expansion to the ADE Pro<\/strong> conference schedule. This latest roster of industry heavyweights and creative visionaries joins an already star-studded lineup, setting the stage for a deep dive into the current state and future trajectory of the global electronic music landscape.<\/p>\n

Core Pillars of the 2026 Conference<\/h2>\n

The upcoming edition of ADE Pro is meticulously organized around three primary pillars designed to address the most pressing challenges in the industry: the evolution of independent music in an era of market consolidation, the complex interplay between the music sector and major technology firms, and the power of collective industry action. These themes serve as the foundation for a program that aims to bridge the gap between historical legacy and future innovation.<\/p>\n

These new speakers join previously announced luminaries, including the legendary Jean-Michel Jarre, who will serve as the Guest of Honour, alongside early confirmed participants like Mosimann, Novah, and LYZZA.<\/p>\n

Spotlight on Global Talent and Entrepreneurship<\/h2>\n

A major highlight of this year\u2019s programming is the regional focus on Brazil, the MENA region, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Representing the vibrant Brazilian scene, Mochakk<\/strong> and the Solarce Brothers<\/strong> are set to share their insights. Meanwhile, the “Artist as Entrepreneur” track will feature Josh Baker<\/strong>, who will explore the multifaceted role of the modern musician-balancing studio production with the demands of running labels, festivals, and educational initiatives.<\/p>\n

The program also sees a transition for artists like SPFDJ<\/strong>, who moves from the 2025 ADE Lab to the main Pro stage, while Mathame<\/strong> and Pegassi<\/strong> are slated to lead discussions on the intersection of cutting-edge technology and artistic expression.<\/p>\n

Legacy, Ethics, and Social Responsibility<\/h2>\n

The conference will also host a retrospective look at independent music culture. Pedro Winter (Busy P)<\/strong> of Ed Banger and Emmanuel de Buretel<\/strong> of Because Music will take the stage to discuss their twenty-year collaborative history, offering a masterclass on how independent labels can maintain cultural relevance in a shifting market.<\/p>\n

Ethical considerations remain at the forefront of the agenda. Paul Hartnoll<\/strong> of Orbital will participate in a critical session titled “The Ethics of the Sample: Collaboration, Consent and Credit Across Cultures.” This discussion arrives as the industry celebrates the 30th anniversary of Orbital\u2019s seminal work, In Sides<\/em>. Furthermore, the panel “The State of Emergency: Music Leaders at the Forefront of Change”-featuring Gideon Berger<\/strong>, Sarah Williams<\/strong>, and Matt Black<\/strong>-will examine how the music community can leverage its influence to drive social progress and collective solidarity.<\/p>\n

Event Logistics and Participation<\/h2>\n

The Amsterdam Dance Event<\/strong> is scheduled to take place from October 21-25, 2026. This 30th-anniversary edition serves as both a tribute to three decades of electronic music history and a strategic roadmap for the years to come. Attendees looking to participate in the full five-day conference and networking experience can secure their ADE Pro Pass<\/a><\/strong>, which is currently offered at Early Bird rates. With additional speakers and session details expected to drop in the coming months, the anticipation for this landmark event continues to build.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
