Can you believe it? In less than two weeks: 2.500 electronic artists, 600 speakers with more than 1.000 events across 200 venues...All in Amsterdam...and one of my favourite artists not playing? D*****MN!

Sure, lots and lots of other cool DJs playing; So I should be able to get some proper sounds into my ears! :) Its about time to dive into the HUMONGOUS schedule and make myself a plan to get the most out of these 5 days and nights.

Orrrrrr?

I could also behave like other years: Go with the flow! Wherever it takes me! Usually with great results!

Kinda a constant factor in these flows are the Warehouse on Fridaynight en De School on Sunday (day and night) with the first days and in between a variety of different venues, events and whatever the flow passes.

Check the lineup of Warehouse on Friday....Pffff....

Craig Richards (GB) / Edward (DE) / Ferro (NL) / Francesco Del Garda (IT) / Raresh (RO) / Reiss (NL) / Ricardo Villalobos (CL) / Sonja Moonear (CH) / Steve Rachmad (NL) / Voigtmann (GB)

At least 4 super cool artists and for sure 2 to 3 pretty good artists!

And the one for De School on Friday till Sunday... non-stop more than 60 hours... Eat your heart out Berghain! hahahaha ...those who know Berghain, know why I laugh :)

Owwww, for those who still don't know what event I'm talking about here: It is the Amsterdam Dance Event. Interested? Click Me. Want to see the Program? Click Me.

In the mean time listen to some of the greatest discoveries on Techno front, I made last years. Colombian by birth; Spain as home base; Pure Techno at heart... Adrian Lopez.

The set recording I share for you below, gave me not only the right amount of energy I need for today, but also gave me much more than that! ...These butterflies in my body, to want to experience one of these great nights in an underground club, with the right atmosphere, with the true music lovers, with quality techno, without all the commercial stuff... Owww Boy, that combination will be difficult to find :(

I think it'll be about time to plan my next trip to Berlin, for a weekend of Berghain, where all - the butterflies are about - will be found!

^{Disclaimer: Berghain seems to become a bit more commercial with the new wristbands and re-enter fee, but that aside and plan to tell you about this in another article}
