Courtesy Essential Mix 2019

Let's talk about Courtesy. She'll make you have a good time, guaranteed. I fell across her on a Sunday Breakfast Club during ADE 2019. I ended up stuck in the upper room listening to this lady I didn't even know about before. So on my return from Amsterdam I spent some time on her and then I learnt about what is going on Copenhagen, crazy stuff.

Courtesy also runs her own label Kulor which was briefly discussed in RA's end of the year feature on electronic music trends in 2019. Kulor and their mini compilation 001 serves as an example that music is shaping blending and evolving - techno being no exception. Schacke's music was added as an example.

This year, we attended the Exclusive Invite-Only ‘RAW RAVE‘ at the iconic Rijksmuseum Bike Passage for G-Star RAW’s 30th Anniversary Bash during Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE).

TITIA

The G-Star RAW’s 30th Anniversary Rave at the RIJKS, with performances from TITIA, Boys Noize and , the Rijksmuseum was jam packed with industry insiders, movers & shakers, designers and models.

In honor of the 30-year anniversary of G-Star RAW, the iconic Passage under the Rijksmuseum was taken over by RAW RAVE on Thursday 17 October. Music performances by De Staat, Boys Noize and TITIA transformed the evening into a unique musical experience with an energetic mix of rave, breakbeat, acid and electro music.

1500 fans danced the night away under the iconic Rijksmuseum bicycle Passage outfitted strobe lights. A lucky number of G-Star fans obtained access through an online raffle where approximately 6,000 consumers participated in.

With this live event, G-Star RAW marked the start of a three-year collaboration with Amsterdam Dance Event, a club festival with more than 400,000 guests and more than 2,500 artists.

The three-decade anniversary would not be complete without a striking G-Star collection, simply registered “30-Y Collection.” All pieces are inspired by pieces that have been associated with the denim brand since it was founded in 1989 and now have a place within the infamous “G-Star Archive.”

Highlights: Aside from getting to see Boys Noize and TITIA tear the RIJKS up — bumping into the Boisset Brothers, who flew in from Spain to make a special appearance for the night.

TITA & Boys Noize

For some time now, it’s been on our bucket-list to party at the Rijksmuseum during ADE, being able to fulfill it with Boys Noize and TITIA performing, is icing on the cake.

A special shout-out to G-STAR RAW for an incredible night, see you next ADE!
