Secret Artists in Residence

After premiering at Best Kept Secret Festival last year and a sophomore edition at ADE Festival 2022, ‘Secret Artists in Residence’ is set to host an exclusive event for ADE Pro visitors this year. In a temporary music studio built at Felix Meritis, the concept is home to unusual artistic collaborations and live jam sessions with a roster including Steve Rachmad, Alberta Balsam, Mathew Jonson, Sarah Neutkens and others.

The first topics and themes for this year’s conference have been confirmed, tackling the Strategies, Opportunities and Responsibilities that define the global electronic music industry.
