  14-16\n\nBelgium’s alternative scene hits OT301 to launch the intense A
 ADE weekend. On Thursday\, October 22nd\, TUKAN and Aili & Orson join forc
 es for a high-energy live act showcase. Having built an impressive track r
 ecord across Europe’s top stages and festivals\, both acts are set to de
 liver. Charlie Avalon (Amsterdam) and Umbra (Brussels) set the tone on ope
 ning and closing duties with fine selector dj sets. \n\nArtists:\n\nTUKAN
 \nSubverting conventional expectations has always been at the top of TUKAN
 ’s agenda. Having barely broken onto the Belgian music scene\, the Bruss
 els quartet has rapidly built a reputation as a brilliant live act\, overf
 lowing with ideas and displaying a striking command of this mix of styles.
  How does it all work? The beats dance between pulsating retrofuturism and
  an alternative approach to dance\, while the instrumentation moves effort
 lessly between rock combo and indietronica bedroom project\; TUKAN also in
 corporates techno and jazz in perfectly measured accents. Anyone arriving 
 with specific stylistic expectations gets a lesson: this band always manag
 es to sound different\, yet remain utterly unique. Even after their debut 
 Atoll (2022)\, the press was full of praise\, and a world tour of over 200
  shows sold out in no time. The TUKAN sound was born\, polished\, and esta
 blished. Now they are back with their follow-up Human Drift (2025)\, celeb
 rating the joy of dance and ecstasy\, synergy and energy according to ever
 y trick in the book. Fasten your seatbelts. \n\nAili & Orson\nAili & Orson
  is a Belgian-Japanese electro-pop duo consisting of Aili Maruyama and Ors
 on Wouters. Forged in the Belgian alternative club scene and rooted in the
  nuances of Japanese culture\, the duo seamlessly bridges two distinct wor
 lds. The result is a minimalist and colorful sonic universe where language
  barriers dissolve into pure\, infectious energy. Now\, they are ready to 
 unveil their next chapter with their second album\, set for release in ear
 ly 2027.\nFormed after a chance meeting in 2019\, their instant musical ch
 emistry led to a playful and spontaneous approach to songwriting\, blendin
 g electronic beats\, samples\, and Aili's unique Japanese vocals. Their fi
 rst release\, 2021’s Dansu EP\, received widespread acclaim\, spending 8
  weeks at the top of Radio 1's VOX list in Belgium. This initial success q
 uickly rippled across borders\, catching the attention of Tokyo's creative
  label TOKA\, who partnered with the duo to release a special Japanese edi
 tion of the debut EP Dansu.\nTheir first full-length album\, Nandakke? (Es
 kimo Recordings)\, pushed them onto the global stage. The record went stra
 ight to #1 on KCRW’s Top 30 Album Chart in the US\, picked up heavy dayt
 ime rotation on KEXP\, BBC Radio 6 Music\, and Nova France\, and racked up
  loads of streams across tastemaker playlists like Metropolis and Pollen.
 \nLive\, Aili & Orson are a structured\, high-energy storm. Beyond their o
 wn sold-out headline dates across Europe and Japan\, they spent late 2024 
 supporting L'Impératrice on tour\, packing out iconic rooms like L’Olym
 pia in Paris\, Melkweg in Amsterdam\, and the Roundhouse in London.\nWith 
 their signature cross-cultural playfulness and boundless energy\, the duo 
 continues to define a sonic universe entirely of their own.\n\ncharlie ava
 lon\ncharlie avalon approaches djing with a simple philosophy: if it works
  on the dance floor\, it belongs in the mix. their sets pull from an era w
 hen dance music was rougher\, sweatier\, and more DIY\, blending dirty ele
 ctro\, pulsing synths\, and bass-heavy beats with an unpredictable edge. w
 ith their club night INDIESLEAZE\, they tap into that raw\, high-energy at
 mosphere\, moving between sleazy pop\, distorted house\, and left-field cl
 ub sounds. it’s a sound that has taken them from underground clubs in am
 sterdam\,  london\, antwerp and ghent to festival stages at best kept secr
 et\, lowlands\, down the rabbit hole\, and into the great wide open. along
  the way\, they’ve shared the stage with 2manydjs\, the dare\, lynks\, a
 nd other artists who thrive on pushing dance floors into uncharted territo
 ry. wherever they play\, the goal remains the same: keep things unpredicta
 ble\, keep the energy high\, and never let the night settle.\n\nUmbra\nJul
 ien Gathy alias Umbra is a Brussels based dj\, producer & Magma Collective
  co-founder & resident.  His sets are known for their eclectic and dynamic
  sound\, blending different styles and genres seamlessly to create a uniqu
 e atmosphere that always gets the crowd moving. Expect leftfield house\, b
 eats\, breaks\, indie dance and everything in between. Umbra is a usual su
 spect of majors venues in Belgium such as C12\, La Cabane\, Fuse\, Listen 
 festival etc…\nHis last release on Hardfist\, "Tints of UFOria" is a cel
 estial sonic exploration of euphoria in all its forms\, from profound\, sh
 adowy depths to heart-pounding excitement and has been supported by major 
 artists such as Chloé\, Matisa\, Roe Deers\, DC Salas\, Lauer\, Barbara B
