ADE 2017 The Preview
This is part III.
Daring English readers find the unreadable Dutch part I over here.
Part II, Thursday the 19th you can read in English right here.
Coming up, the big Friday! Read on.
For those of you new here, welcome! Yesterday I explained some of the why of the Nachtsnuiver blog. Right now I'm still writing about last night, join us on WhatsApp because it wouldn've have turned out as great as it did without you! You can join Nachtsnuiver ADE on WhatsApp to find last minute open parties (hello Young Marco b2b Palms Trax at Lux last night) or better.
See you around and welcome to Nachtsnuiver! Cheers!
PS, when writing this guide the mentioned price points of tickets were readily available. This can change at any minute. No guarantees. Don't sleep!

Friday 20 October - Day
Jackmaster b2b Optimo
Starting early is not an issue today. Personal favorite Kamma is joined by her friend Hellie Berry to heat things up before Jackmaster and Optimo have a go at it b2b!
07:00 Audio Obscura at The Loft 22,50
Urbanears Hideout
Here's hoping that the sweetest cushioned corner of ADE will be back this year. Swedish snacks, djs, a Clone record shop, and did I mention the view?
Last year:
Today's event
12 PM - 1:30 PM Tom Trago and David Vunk will talk anniversaries and look back on their careers while accompanied by live music from a true personal favorite, Palmbomen II.
Music by
1:30 PM - 2:30 Frangie live
2:30 PM -4:00 La Fleur
12:00 Urbanears Hideout FREE
Mary Go Wild Basement Raves
Unfortunately nowadays the whole world knows about this basement. So the 'you have to be early', is a bit more stringent than it was when Mary first hosted this. Still, a good daytime techno rave. What's not to like. Thursday has/had Drumcode selling limited edition t-shirts.
14:00 Basement Raves @ Mary Go Wild FREE
Kompakt Pop Up Store
Yes I admit this is another biggy. The Kompakt label is more than well known in town. They've hosted many warehouse editions before. Instead of dancin' with thousands of people and spending a lot of cash, you can try your luck to dance with a few buds and a beer in their pop up store. Imagine walking around the Red Light District around 2pm. It's a great idea to just try to get a wristband. With these wristbands, you get access to the dj showcases, daily at 6pm.
14:00 Kompakt Pop Up Store at Red Light District FREE
Thuishaven
As you can see this is quite the afternoon event. Although there is also a part that starts at 23:00, sold out way in advance. I'm not very fond of this location in particular, but the line up today is obviously spectacular.
14:00 ADE Friday at Thuishaven 22,-
Slowmotion Club meets Brandon
My love for Michie and Lola knows zero boundaries. Come, hug & dance together! Question is who will play today really because I know Michie and Lola did so yesterday already.
15:00 Slowmotion Club meets Café Brandon FREE
Bordello A Parigi
Recordstore Bordello A Parigi hosts instores daily since yesterday. Today will see the likes of David Vunk, DJ Normal 4, Gilb'R, Oceanic, Sierk Zee, Terr, The Hacker and Woody.
15:00 Bordello A Parigi instores FREE
HIGGS Livestream
Today HIGGS has invited Crème Organization to host the livestream, you can sign up to find yourself on the guest list. DJ Overdose, dj TLR, Fabio Monesi, dj Haus and Lake Haze will be present.
16:00 HIGGS Livestream at Radion FREE w/RSVP
Daily Paper x KLEAR store
Sponsored drinks, custom hoodies, what's not to love.
19:00 KLEAR store at Daily Paper FREE w/RSVP
Friday 20 October - Night
Het Weekend
The School, never the place to follow many of the unwritten ADE rules, changes it up completely this year. One big weekender. 62 hours (or more, who knows) of madness coming your way! That's actually not true. It's not madness at all. There will be beautiful concerts, surprising b2b's (looking at you here, Avalon & Aurora) and with all floors active like a carrousel you can just hang in The Muzieklokaal by day, the basement at night and so on. Once you're out though...there are no stamps.
19:30 Het Weekend in De School ca. 20,-
Safe Grill
Young Marco has invited Gilb'R, Private Eyes (Interstellar Funk), 751 b2b Woody, Ben Penn, Darling, Max Abysmal, A Good Christian to play for your Friday night pleasure at Sexyland.

22:00 Southport Weekender at MADAM 22,-
Pan-Amafropeans
Esa and friends at OT301. Meeting him on the secret dancefloor last night just added to the pleasure of ADE 2017, he told me he will play at 1:30 if I remember correctly.
22:00 Pan-Amafropeans at OT301 15,-
Framework
It's a mystery to me. The fact that you can still buy tickets, even weekender ones for this party (running two consecutive nights). So let me put some emphasis on the fact that this is one of the easiest recommendations I'll do for the week. Go see Elena. (By the way, she will play with Nina Kraviz at Red Light Radio from 7-10pm).
22:00 Framework at Cinetol 14,- / or 20,- if you want to do Saturday too
Rave Land
Thursday you will find out where this party will be. DJs Ron van de Kerkhof, Philipp Otterbach, Woody, Bredt, Sidney and DJ Kevin. Lights by the amazing Nikki Hock.
23:00 Rave Land at Secret Location 10,-
KODO
NOBU, So, Satoshi Otsuki visiting Amsterdam. Very small space in the Melkweg has a free party where the Tokyo Dance Music Event will be held.
23:00 KODO at Melkweg FREE with RSVP that closed
Everlasting BAR Love
BAR might be the best Rotterdam has to offer these days, as I found out just a few weeks ago. More on that soon (in Dutch). The people who run the Rotterdam based club are coming over for some fun at Noorderlicht tonight. On offer Trevor Jackson, Orpheu the Wizard and Oberman.
23:00 Everlasting BAR Love at Noorderlicht 15,-
