Hear what Thunderdome co-founder Irfan van Ewijk, Beatport’s Vice President of Music Services Terry Weerasinghe and fast rising acts Atmozfears, Audiotricz and Rebourne have to say!
HDE is the ADE conference that connects professionals involved in the harder styles of dance music and takes place at Melkweg on Thursday October 15. Tickets are available here.
Music Pro
Producers listen up! The 'Music Pro' panel is one you cannot miss. This panel is the ultimate masterclass covering the complete process of producing, publishing and releasing music. The panel will be led by Harmen Hemminga (Headliner Entertainment, NL), Bas Kaspers (Cloud 9 Music) and Terry Weerasinghe (Beatport, DE).
The Thunderdome story
You don't need us to tell that Thunderdome remains the most legendary hardcore brand of all time. Despite the fact that the events were discontinued two years ago, the hype around the CD compilations, merchandise and memories is bigger than ever. Co-founder Irfan van Ewijk (NL) will be revealing how the event's 20 year story started and looks back to the biggest moments in its rich history.
Future event experience
Are you more into technology? Then the 'Event Experience of the Future’ panel fits perfectly. Learn how fan experiences can be enhanced through digital solutions, which can not only make going to events easier and more comfortable, it can seriously improve the impact of the show and make it better and more personal. Our panelists will be looking at whether events will look different because of these opportunities, and asking if that's a good thing, or not.
Brand new melody
Even though hardstyle is not usually associated with sweeping, majestic tunes for the general audience, there is a big group of amazing artists producing euphoric, melody-drenched music. The 'Brand New Melody' panel will see Atmozfears (NL), Audiotricz and Rebourne voicing their opinions about melodic and raw hardstyle, as well as discussing their creative processes and much more! A panel that budding producers really shouldn't miss!
