Audio Obscura-Joseph Capriati
Joseph Capriati

A leading player in the electronic music world, Audio Obscura is renowned for stretching limits by presenting cutting-edge music in far-off, magnificent, and often inaccessible settings. Once-in-a- lifetime events that highlight the uniting power of music will result. Based in Amsterdam, Audio Obscura has helped to shape the city’s cultural heritage through events at famous places like the Concertgebouw, Central Station, De Loft (ADAM Tower), the bicycle path beneath the Rijksmuseum, and most recently, the city’s Ring motorway (A10), providing the Highway Rave for Amsterdams official 750th anniversary party. 

Riding high on the buzz surrounding their highly awaited Highway Rave, a one-off celebration of Amsterdam’s 750th anniversary on the city’s ring-road, Audio Obscura is happy to debut its 2025 Amsterdam Dance Event programme. Audio Obscura returns to the legendary RAWFACTORY, at G-Stars Amsterdam offices, from October 23-25 for three spectacular concerts with some of the most renowned names in electronic music.

To celebrate this moment in true Audio Obscura style, a visually striking recap video capturing the Highway Rave, as the city’s Ring (A10) motorway transformed into a euphoric open-air dancefloor, is available to watch here. The footage captures the scale, energy and ambition of an event that had the entire city talking.

October 23 – in collaboration with Hangar

ADE 2025 kicks off by joining forces with Belgian tastemakers Hangar, known for their boundary-pushing programming and striking visual identity. Expect a bold cross-border collision of atmospheres with high energy inside the RAWFACTORY.

October 24 – in collaboration with Joseph Capriati and Metamorfosi

On Friday, Audio Obscura welcomes Metamorfosi — a project rooted in transcendence and evolution. Their ADE day & night debut at RAWFACTORY will blur the line between immersive experience and club ritual, layered in shadow and sound.

October 25 – in collaboration with Innervisions

Following last year’s sold-out ADE show, Audio Obscura reunites with the iconic Innervisions for a highly anticipated return to RAWFACTORY. With a proven chemistry and overwhelming demand in 2024, this event promises to be one of the standout moments of the entire week.

With wide-reaching media attention and city-wide energy ahead of us, this announcement marks just the beginning of what is to come from Audio Obscura over ADE 2025. Full artist line-ups to follow later.

Nas

Nas, Ownership Over Clout, And The Blueprint For Generational Wealth

Shon Murdock

In hip-hop, wealth has often been measured in visible success, diamond chains, foreign cars, and sold-out arenas. But real power has always lived somewhere quieter, in ownership. Few artists have embodied that evolution more strategically than Nas, a lyricist who turned street poetry into boardroom leverage and transformed rap earnings into generational equity. From the […]

Solarstone And Susie Ledge Release New Single-“Haunt Me”

Tim Stark

Bold prediction perhaps, but we’ll say it anyway: “Haunt Me”‘s a one-and-done — the kind of record that locks you in on first listen and plays on loop in the mind, long after the speakers have gone quiet. In that instant catch, there’s a certain irony too, as, for the first time in his career, […]

Christian Burns Releases Darker Days (Original & Avenue One Mixes)

Tim Stark

From the forward-looking, Jan-hopeful lean of his most recent single “Fall To You,” Christian Burns moves onto the slightly less sanguine sounding “Darker Days.” After all, every lighter yin must result in some shadowy yang, right?? Well not necessarily, as “sounding” is very much the operative word here, as once again Christian delivers the electronic […]

Ciaran McAuley Announces New Album “Finding Me”

Tim Stark

Ironically perhaps, owes its existence to a period of profound creative doubt on Ciaran McAuley’s behalf. After years of forward momentum, the Irish artist found himself questioning not only his own direction, but his relationship with music itself. At that crossroads, rather than forcing (what now only had the appearance of) progress, he chose to […]
