Asian and Western DJs on one stage
Exchange Asia has existed since 2018 and builds a bridge between the dance scene in Asia and that in the West. At Black Market, this is about more than music. Between 10 and 12 DJs play for 45 minutes each. No filler tracks, no long pauses. Only artists who have something to say with their set.
Networking in a different way
An on-location Exchange Board helps you connect with the right person in the room. This way, you exchange not only music but also contacts, ideas, and opportunities. The format is deliberately accessible: no dress code, no sponsor logos at the booth, and no entrance fee for artists.
A permanent spot at ADE
Exchange Asia has built up a loyal group of visitors over eight years. The same faces return every year in October and bring new people with them. Black Market is therefore more than a showcase: it is a place where the scene runs its own economy, outside the official conference halls.
