Martin Garrix and Timbaland, the production powerhouses behind some of the biggest dance and hip-hop hits of the past decade, are joining forces for an exclusive live discussion at the 2024 Amsterdam Dance Event, the world’s leading electronic music summit.
The two will take the stage together at the Amsterdam-based venue Felix Meritis for a special ADE Pro live discussion, the conference’s organizers announced today. They’re set to host a “creative conversation for music professionals and artists alike,” per a press release.
Garrix and Timbaland are longtime friends and collaborators. They joined forces to work on new music in 2019 before reuniting the following year to host a special roundtable, “The Evolution Of Our Sounds,” during the first-ever virtual edition of ADE due to the impact of the pandemic.
“I don’t know if you’ve ever worked with or seen Martin in the studio, but that guy’s a genius,” Timbaland said at the time.
Other ADE Pro headlining speakers revealed today include Grace Ladoja, the founder of Nigerian music platform and festival Our Homecoming; and the influential French DJ and house music producer Laurent Garnier, who will join the proprietors of London’s fabled fabric club to present a series of special mixes in celebration of its 25th anniversary.
Attendees of the 2024 ADE Pro program can also experience the conference’s new “matchmaking experience,” which connects them with representatives of major agencies like UTA and CAA as well as a slew of esteemed dance record labels, including Armada, Spinnin’ and Helix.
