Amsterdam Dance Event mini documentary Dance Is A Rave Olution

Amsterdam Dance Event published a mini-documentary before the 2022 meeting: Dance Is A Rave-Olution. Mini-documentary features footage from ADE 2021 and anecdotes from various artists including Honey Dijon, Octo Octa, Hyperactivist, Colin Benders and Luke Slater.

Amsterdam Dance Event has released a mini-documentary reflecting the spirit of club culture before the highly anticipated 2022 event next fall.

The images that make the audience move, include snapshots from the Amsterdam Dance Event’s meeting, which was held between 13-17 October last year. At ADE 2021, where more than 250 events took place in more than 90 venues across the city, the focus was on parties as workshops and conference programs with physical participation were cancelled.

In the video, which is the pre-celebration of the return of the usual conference and event program of Amsterdam Dance Event, the voice-overs arranged in the style of storytelling accompany the footage, strikingly highlighting the unforgettable memories that permeate our lives with the club culture, the reinforcing effect of this culture on social bonds, and the irresistible unifying power of music. Among the artists we come across in the narrations are names such as Honey Dijon, Octo Octa, Hyperactivist, Colin Benders and Luke Slater.

This year’s meeting of Amsterdam Dance Event will take place between 19-13 October. You can watch the video directed by Anna Bogomolova below.

The Noorderparkbad is an outdoor swimming pool in Amsterdam North, located on the edge of the Noorderpark. The swimming pool includes both an indoor part (indoor pool) and an outdoor area with swimming pools (outdoor pool). After forty years, the Noorderparkbad is the successor to the Floraparkbad, which stood next to it, and is the most sustainable swimming pool in our country. The swimming pool has won several prizes in the field of architecture, including the jury and public prize of the Amsterdam Architecture Prize in 2016.

In contrast to most outdoor pools, the Noorderparkbad also offers outdoor swimming in winter. The water is normally heated to a temperature of 18 to 21 degrees Celsius. During night frost, the bath can be just below that temperature, especially in the morning. That’s nice to wake up to!

The ‘5D Porn Cinema’, which will give people an interesting experience in Amsterdam’s famous Red Light District, has been opened. For details and more, follow to our content…

5-dimensional porn cinema was opened in the famous Red Light District (Red Light District) in Amsterdam.

What happens in the movie will progress in a way that viewers can feel while sitting in their seats. Seats will vibrate, pressurized water will be given, and if there is a wind effect in the movie, this will be reflected to the audience.

Customers will be able to hear, feel and see.

What the owner of the cinema wants to do is take the experience to the next level, instead of people just sitting at home and watching porn alone.

While the image is projected to the screen in 3D, the seats will move, and the audience will feel like they are inside the movie with special effects.

In order to better convey the action going on on stage to the audience, the seats are designed to sway and vibrate.

The film to be screened tells the sexy and funny story of a man visiting Amsterdam.

Natalie, owner of the 5D Porn Cinema, where the movie produced in collaboration with porn star Kim Holland will be screened, says: ‘The movie is about the sexy and funny story of a man who visits Amsterdam’s Red Light District. For example, the man visits one of Amsterdam’s famous bars and makes love in a bubble bath. But the movie is extremely humorous. So it’s not just about sex.’

Those who want to experience this interesting experience pay 12.50 euros for a single ticket.

Natalie says the show isn’t just for tourists, but people can come and have a lot of fun with their partners: ‘Come with your partner, laugh, try something new.’
