The Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is one of the most important weeks in the global electronic music calendar. More than just parties and panels, it’s where the entire industry comes together: artists collaborate, new technology launches, labels discover talent, and students network with professionals shaping dance music’s future. This year, pointblank showed exactly how well-connected our community is within that ecosystem.
DJ Shorty
Our lecturer, DJ Shorty, represented pointblank at the AlphaTheta x Apple Music DJ Workshop. He supported our partner AlphaTheta at the ADE Gear Test Lab and ran an Apple Music workshop as a DJ trainer, helping keen enthusiasts take their first steps behind the decks. As a lecturer, he brings that same real-world expertise back to our students, keeping their learning grounded in current industry practice.
Halina Rice
pointblank alumna Halina Rice made a strong impact at ADE with a series of masterclasses and immersive live events. Known for her ‘immersive first’ approach, she blends music, art, and technology to create stunning Audio-Visual performances. Her masterclass, ‘Creating Show & Sound’, gave a behind-the-scenes look at how she builds her shows from the first idea to the final stage, which was a real treat for anyone interested in immersive live music.
The next day, she returned with her ‘FULL CYCLE 360°’ concert, combining spatial audio, visuals, and light into a completely immersive experience. Alongside a Dolby Atmos listening session and panel discussions on the future of club sound, Halina showed exactly why she’s becoming one of the most exciting voices in electronic music performance.
