After an exhausting ADE Thursday I decided that Friday 20th October at ADE is going to focus mainly on Felix Meritis and The Dylan despite the fact that ADE Beats which was focusing on urban electronic music like hip hop was taking place with very important speakers and panels. The reason was that Friday schedule at the two main sites was packed with very interesting panels and discussions that offered many important insights on the future of electronic dance music industry.
