Last year's ADE had quite the opening party, as Dutch melodic house duo Tinlicker treated the attendees to a truly unique performance with Metropole Orkest, a Dutch orchestra that has played with a wide variety of artists over many years. The orchestra wrote arrangements specifically for the songs in this set and practiced for months to put on this show. Nathan Nicholson, who is the vocalist on several Tinlicker tracks, also joined the production. The show was magical in person and the perfect way to kick off the week's festivities.

The show had excellent video production and the concert film was subsequently aired on Dutch TV and then posted online, but the videos are only on Dutch websites and not available on YouTube or any other video platform (see the links below). Interestingly, the final cut omits several songs - possibly for copyright reasons - so the track listing below won't exactly match up with the audio.

1. Tinlicker - Be Here And Now
