Electronic Music Sleeping Concert during ADE 2019

During this year’s Amsterdam Dance Event 2019, I was invited to perform alongside Equal Yoga at the ADE Zen Space, a curated chill-out zone at De Waalse Kerk for electronic music lovers and party goers to spend some down time.

On Thursday October 17, there was a sleeping concert by Circle of Live, an initiative of Sebastian Mullaert which is an improvised electronic music jam of 8 hours from 23:00-7:00. Lucky for the sleepers, the ticket included breakfast!

The original idea is that a selected number of electronic music artists on Mullaert’s record label are invited to come take part in this improvised jam. There is no specific schedule so the beauty is that the improvisation takes on a different journey depending on which artist joins or leaves. The concert during ADE was only with Sebastian Mullaert and Johanna Knutsson.

The audience were asked to bring their own sleeping arrangements such as sleeping bag, pillow and camping mats. Big inflatable mattresses are not allowed!
