Adam Ten
Adam Ten has spent over a decade shaping the underground scene in Tel Aviv, and if you’ve caught one of his sets, you know he doesn’t play it safe. He’s built a reputation as a genuinely instinctive DJ — no pre-planned setlists, just crate-digging for both fresh cuts and forgotten gems and letting the night take him wherever it wants. As he put it himself, “I have never prepared the mixes before. I just follow my instincts.” That approach is exactly why his all-night sets have become something of a draw in their own right, blending genres fluidly instead of sticking to one lane.
He put that same philosophy into label form with Maccabi House, which he founded to spotlight rising Israeli talent without chasing trends. Beyond just releasing music, Adam mentors the artists on the roster directly, helping shape their production and arrangement — a hands-on approach that’s rare for a label boss with his own touring schedule to manage.
His own catalog has hit hard too. “Spring Girl” pulled in a million plays on Beatport in under a month, and his sound has earned support from an absurdly stacked list of artists — Diplo, Solomun, Michael Bibi, Damian Lazarus, Dixon, Tale Of Us, DJ Tennis, Camelphat, Black Coffee, and Adriatique among them. In December 2023, that momentum landed him representation with WME, one of the biggest talent agencies in the business.
On the stage side, Adam Ten has racked up a serious résumé — Burning Man sets on the Mayan Warrior and Robot Heart art cars, a Hï Ibiza debut alongside Black Coffee and Damian Lazarus, plus stops at Printworks and Fabric in London, Pacha Ibiza, Brooklyn Mirage in New York, and Space Miami. He’s also linked up with Mita Gami for a collaborative EP through Crosstown Rebels and brought the Maccabi House brand stateside with a Los Angeles show in 2025. Between his own releases and what he’s building for Israel’s next generation of producers through Maccabi House, Adam Ten is one of the more thoughtful figures in melodic house right now.
