ADE 2013: Kompakt celebrate their 20 year anniversary with a series of events throughout ADE 2013

Cologne based label Kompakt will celebrate their 20 year anniversary with a series of events throughout the conference.

Kompakt’s 20 years of innovation may exceed that of Amsterdam Dance’s Event’s 18 years of prominence, but in no way lambasts it, for they merely compliment each other, working hand –in-hand to inspire the entire, global music community. With ADE celebrating 25 years of dance music in the Netherlands, it feels fitting that the Cologne based label will celebrate their anniversary with a series of events throughout the conference.

Directly in the middle of Amsterdam’s Red Light District at the Oz. Studio, you’ll be able to find the team behind Germany’s leading electronic imprint behind the counter at their very own pop-up store. Having taken the project all across Europe, the label has teamed up with Electronic Beats to provide a face-to-face front where you can meet the label’s key founders, purchase exclusive content and watch intimate, in-store performances.

There is a touch of irony that owners Wolfgang Voigt, Michael Mayer, Reinhard Voigt and Jürgen Paape should want to celebrate such a momentous occasion by taking a record shop on tour, considering the label ‘s humble beginnings as the Delirium Record store, that eventually went on to become the Kompakt label we know today.

On Saturday night, Kompakt will do they do best, by taking over NDSM Shipyard to throw an all-night techno-extravaganza with label lynchpins Gui Boratto, Michael Mayer, Pachanga Boys, Kölsch, Saschienne, Coma, Elekfantz and Okinawa 69.
