OM presents its brand-new concept: BLAST!

When night falls, OM – a concert venue in Ougrée, just outside Liège – transforms itself. BLAST is OM’s brand-new techno rendezvous: a regular concept where the venue becomes a real club, making you dance until the early hours of the morning.

For this very first edition, MANDRAGORA will take over the decks with some exceptional guest artists. The first of a long series… one you definitely don’t want to miss.

Don’t miss the kick-off – grab your tickets now!

MANDRAGORA

At the crossroads of worlds and originating from the Mexican rave scene, Mandragora explores various styles and shapes his own: the one that fuses Goa Trance with progressive house and techno, leading to the birth of Futureprog, a genre he pioneered.

He quickly made a name for himself thanks to this distinctive style, combining Latin American sounds with psychedelic textures. This fusion resonated beyond borders, particularly in Brazil, where his career took an international turn.

His live performances have taken him to some of the most prestigious stages across all continents, including iconic festivals like EDC Mexico, Dream Nation, FCKNYE, Transmission, Garorock, and more.

With 13 albums produced throughout his career and multiple collaborations (KVSH, +2M monthly listeners), this creative and avant-garde genius has established himself as one of the leading figures in the global electronic scene, alongside names like David Guetta, Apashe, Etienne de Crecy, Martin Solveig or Gordo. With over 500 millions streams across platforms and a community of more than a million fans worldwide, he continues to push the boundaries of musical creativity, marking a new chapter in 2025 with his latest project, Not For Resale.

Far from the Psytrance roots that earned him a name on the global stage and generated 60 million streams over the past year, Mandragora is now redefining his musical identity through a project of 9 tracks, each unveiling a new facet of the artist. Blending tech house, indie dance, and preserving the essence of psytrance groove, Not For Resale introduces introspective sounds. It’s an album designed as an open work, free to evolve, reflecting the eclectic DJ sets of Mandragora.

GUESTS

Over the past few years, Urumi has established herself as one of the most promising producers and DJs of her generation. Thanks to her diversity and versatility, she has managed to craft a unique universe—dark yet danceable—by skillfully blending French rap with electronic music.

After a successful residency in Berlin and, more recently, at Pacha Ibiza, she is now taking over dancefloors across France and Europe with a distinctive set mainly composed of edits and remixes. This approach has opened the doors to prestigious festivals such as We Love Green, Primavera Sound, Solidays, Les Plages Électroniques, and Les Eurockéennes.

With the acclaimed release of her project RAP2RAVE, she has become the new princess of Frapcore, remixing artists such as Zola, Ateyaba, and La Fève.

JOHN GILLIOT

Brussels-based John Gilliot is a DJ and producer mixing hard trance and techno with a strong focus on groove and energy.

He started out in hard techno, but over time, his sound evolved—moving towards something more playful, more dynamic. For him, the most important thing is simple: having fun.

John has already played twice at Fuse and performed all over Belgium, bringing his high-energy sets to clubs and raves across the country. His sets are packed with rolling basslines, punchy kicks, and uplifting melodies—creating those moments where the dancefloor feels completely alive.

His productions tap into that same energy, blending rave nostalgia with a fresh, modern edge.
