THIS WAS ADE 2024: AWAKENINGS x KI/KI x JÄGERMEISTER

Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is celebrated as a central hub for electronic music, where fans, artists and industry figures come together in a city that comes alive with sound. Every year, hundreds of events compete for attention across Amsterdam, and this year there was one, Awakenings x KI/KI x Jägermeister, that stood out for two reasons: its production magic and the fact that it was free. EDMHouseNetwork was there to witness this spectacular event, and here is what we have to say about it.

It was clear that Awakenings had outdone themselves from the moment you stepped into the Gashouder. With a visual setup dominated by a moving mirror that cast beams of light, a 2.5 km network of LED lights, and a 360-square-meter LED screen, the venue itself became a canvas of lightning. Due to the nearly 100 moving hoists repositioned lights throughout the night, the visuals felt alive, breathing with each beat. The result was a setting that embraced you, and connected you to the music and those around you.

The nights music was primarily driven by KI/KI, whose styles blurs the edges between euphoric trance and pounding techno. Known for weaving intense, high-energy tracks that shift like a tidal wave, KI/KI kept the crowd moving and often leaned into unexpected transitions that brought waves of euphoria. Thanks to the state-of-the-art D&B Audiotechnik sound system that filled every inch of the Gashouder, KI/KI’s drops came through in a unmatched, sharp, powerful clarity.

The DJ booth was positioned close to the crowd, which created an amplified feeling of connection between KI/KI and the audience, that not only got to experience her music but became a part of the atmosphere that she created. As the night progressed, each element – the light, sound and energy from the crowd – blended into a holistic experience that touch both mind, body and soul. The complex production wasn’t just visual but kinetic, and brought a dynamic layer to the night, making it fell like each transition in the set was an event on its own.

Awakenings x KI/KI x Jägermeister was a testament to how high-calibre production can elevate a musical event into a full-body experience. It wasn’t just another show, but an exhibition of masterful production and artistry that solidified Awakenings status as a true industry leader. An achievement that proves Awakenings unyielding commitment to the music community, and passion for creating heart-driven experiences that go far beyond the ordinary.

For those who missed this special event, Awakenings offers fans another chance to dive into their world-class production during their anticipated NYE celebrations at Gashouder, between 28-31 of December. The lineups and tickets can be found here, and if you’re planning on ringing the New Year with an unforgettable experience, one of the four different Awakenings NYE events is something that we full-heartedly recommend.
