The top ADE samplers
House | Tuesday 20th October 2015 | Arren
Last week, in case you missed it, was the Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), where anybody who’s anybody descended to the Dutch city.
Amsterdam, already well known for it’s vibrant party culture, played host to the biggest gathering of dance music’s elites, lovers and workers. ADE is known for being the place where a lot of business in dance music is carried out, but with 300 events taking place across the city, it’s definitely a case of working hard but partying harder.
With all big gatherings of dance music’s leading characters many labels, big and small, release samplers – which is great if you couldn’t get there! Here is our top 5.
1. Material's ADE Sampler 2015
Mihalis Safras and Mark Broom’s tech house imprint bring a sampler with only the slickest cuts of tech house for Amsterdam. The sampler lives up to the labels ethos embracing all forms of tech house from the more relaxed style to the harder edge dance floor bangers.

The 303Lovers dropped into Amsterdam and they took with them a wicked sampler. The mini album package has a collection of tracks that blur the lines between genres. Whether you want a bass house bruiser, murky techno monster or a trippy acid track the 303Lovers have delivered.
