Groove Armada: A US Road Trip

Conference

Over its fifteen years of existence, ADE’s conference program has come to be recognized as the most important of its kind, making it the ultimate platform for critical dialogue and debate in the field of electronic music. The aim of ADE’s daytime activities is to provide the international electronic music industry with an extensive and all-embracing platform to do business, exchange knowledge and keep up to date on the latest developments and trends of the rapidly evolving global music industry.

How to Score a Hollywood Movie

Conference

This year we invite Andrea von Foerster of Firestarter Music - one of the most creative TV, advertising and film music supervisors around - to curate the fourth annual Composers’ Workshop. In previous years, the images that our participants have been asked to provide music for have come from the world of advertising, but this year we’ve chosen to ask them to find appropriate music for a 90-second film sequence which von Foerster will provide from her latest Hollywood project.

Topics & Speakers

ADE’s conference program features a wide range of the most important and current topics addressing the really big issues within the overlapping worlds that make up the electronic music scene. In the past fifteen years, ADE has featured experts in every topic imaginable, as well as business innovators and thought-leaders from across the globe in order to ensure that the daytime program offers something to everyone involved in the business of making and marketing music.
