Nadia Ali
It is sometimes hard to believe that the Grammy nomination for Nadia Alis Fantasy (Morgan Page Remix) is only one of many milestones marking her musical achievements. Nadias career exploded as a member of iiO with the massive 2001 hit, Rapture. Quickly leaping to #2 on the UK Singles chart, Rapture would propel Nadia into the spotlight and serve as a shadow of things to come. Now armed with a solid decade of commercial success and an almost feverish evolution of artistic expansion Something tells us that Nadia Ali is just warming up. To date, Nadias career as singer/songwriter has attracted a massive international following resulting from a masterful exploitation of captivating vocals and dance music. Nadia has attributed this unmistakable style to the overarching influence of her eastern ancestry, as well as the diverse cultural climate of her upbringing in Queens, New York.
Beginning in 2001, Nadias lush vocal style would take the world by storm, becoming a globally recognized trademark in the dance music industry, and keeping her in nonstop demand by the hottest innovative DJs worldwide. Recent and notable collaborations include: Schiller, Sultan & Ned Shepard, Chris Reece, Tocadisco, Serge Devant and Starkillers. In the mean time, Nadias recent team up with Armin Van Buuren, (ranked the # 1 DJ in the world for 4 consecutive years), has been generating a white-hot buzz. Jointly, Nadia and Armin shaped the brand-new dance track: Feels So Good and are currently carrying out a rigorous tour schedule on the "Armin Only Mirage" tour. Armin Only is an entirely sold-out world tour, filling arenas with tens of thousands of fans nightly.
Nadia Ali has continually proven her value with a growing list of global hits and chart-toppers that has expanded progressively over the years. These include: Rapture, At The End, Kiss You, and a #1 US Billboard Dance Chart hit with Is It Love in 2006. Nadias solo album Embers was released in 2009 and Fantasy soon followed, serving as a prologue to Queen of Clubs Trilogy: Best of Nadia Ali Remixed. In 2010, Nadia was nominated for Best Progressive/Tech House Track for Love Story at the International Dance Music Awards at the Winter Music Conference. She then neatly closed out the year 2010 with a Grammy nomination for her song Fantasy, under the Best Re-mixed Recording category. While Nadia has cultivated a score of industry accolades, 2010 marked the first occasion in which her work would receive the great honor and validation of a Grammy Nomination. If we are to learn anything from the pattern developing here, it could quite possibly be that Nadia Ali simply possesses both the clever intellect and raw talent required to amass this kind of staying power and that this past decade has only been the beginning.

Adam Beyer
Adam Beyer became dedicated to the fascinating world of rhythm early on. After playing the drums as a teenager his obsession turned to the decks. In 1990 he bought his first set of turntables and started spinning a wide range of hiphop, hiphouse, acid and techno at local parties and clubs.
Beyer soon learned how to blend his sets in a thoughtfull and highly focused way, a talent that has now developed into his trademark style. In 92 Fellow school friend Peter Benisch introduced Beyer to the sampler, a year later they got their first record deal with New York based Direct Drive. After finishing school in 1995, Beyer started work at the Planet Rhythm record store while releasing some tracks under a variety of names and continually djing all over Scandinavia.
Adam Beyer sites Drumcodes 1 (Planet Rhythm 1995) as the first record to define his style; hard, percussive and loop oriented. This 12" names Beyer's future label and was soon followed by his critically acclaimed debut album Decoded (Planet Rhythm 1996). His need to create the perfect dj tool gave rise to the launch of the Drumcode label allowing him total musical freedom. The label"s strong concept and high production levels meant it enjoyed immediate success. After six releases Beyer launched his second label Code Red focusing on a slightly softer side of techno. Code Red finished with its 10th and final release Stand Down (Code Red 1999) which was a compilation of remixes from various international artists.

Tibetaans Boeddhistische WijsheidOpenbare les met bekende Tibetaanse lama Zijne Eminentie Dzogchen Rinpoche
Hoewel we gelukkig willen zijn, maken we ons zorgen om geld, onze gezondheid en onze naasten, waardoor we gestresst raken en onze problemen alleen maar groter worden.
Omdat we niet begrijpen wat onze problemen veroorzaakt en wat de gevolgen van onze daden zijn, handelen we zonder het zicht en blijven we verward en onzeker.
Wanneer we leren om met wijsheid onze zorgen onder ogen te zien, kunnen we vol vertrouwen leven zonder bang te zijn.
Tijdens deze openbare les zal Dzogchen Rinpoche uitleggen hoe we zowel de oorzaken van lijden als die van vrede kunnen herkennen, zodat we kunnen kiezen voor een leven zonder zorgen.
