Building The Bridge

"Building the Bridge" is where China’s next-generation electronic music meets the global stage. For one night at ADE, step into a space where deep basslines, bold aesthetics, and fresh creative energy collide. This is more than a showcase, it’s a cultural shift in motion. From the underground clubs of Shanghai to the experimental hubs of Chengdu, a wave of artists is redefining what electronic music means in Asia. Now, they’re bringing that movement to Amsterdam.

Whether you're a label head, a booker, a tastemaker, or simply a fan looking for what’s next, this is your invitation to witness a scene on the rise: raw, unexpected, and full of momentum. Don’t miss the moment when East meets West and something entirely new begins.
