HE.SHE.THEY. This ADE we are proud to welcome back the inclusive and free-thinking concept, the positive force that is HE.SHE.THEY. Noticing the absence of nights that truly reflected the diversity and representation that were historically at the heart of the roots of house, disco and techno, a few like-minded creatives came together to bring HE.SHE.THEY to life. “A place without prejudice for people to be people”, running nights “irrespective of age, race, sex, gender, ability, religion, background or sexual preference.” About the artists DJ Bone Think of Detroit Techno and DJ Bone might not be high on your list of luminaries because he is 100% independent and does things on his terms and on his terms only. Those who recognize Bone know him for his uncompromising and innovative ways. It’s no accident that two letters always precede Bone’s name whenever he’s on the bill. First and foremost, Bone is a DJ-in the truest sense. When he spins, it’s as if the turntables and the mixer become a physical extension of his body. He employs every possible technique in the disc jockey arsenal masterfully: blending, scratching, backspinning, no monitors or headphones; unrivalled in his use of the fader switch and he incorporates them all into every set. From his standing room only residency performances to after-hours spots, he rocks every show as if it’s his last. LSDXOXO LSDXOXO is an artist from Philadelphia who made a name for himself in New York City as a DJ and producer, quickly becoming an essential figure at GHE20GOTH1K. He is known for destroying dance floors across the underground club scene with his energetic DJ sets, amassing attention for the way that he manipulates mainstream sounds by craftily layering pop tracks and vocal samples between Baltimore club, ghetto house, hardcore, electro and techno. Now residing in Berlin and running his own club night Floorgasm, LSDXOXO is synonymous with the new wave of techno artists reclaiming Black queer spaces and injecting some much-needed fun and camp into the genre. -- (Text and image) https://shelteramsterdam.nl/
