Sound Of The Belgian Underground has earned its place as a cult favourite, offering a rare opportunity to experience a wide range of innovative artists in one night, all at an unbeatable price. This is the festival where you can discover tomorrow's talents before they blow up. The Wall of Fame includes acts none other than Loverman, Saliva, Hiele, Chibi Ichigo, David Numwamu and Victor De Roo. With curators Bader Shashit (Yalla Worldwide) and Laura Conant (MONTAGE) taking the reins for the 2025 edition, SOBU continues to push boundaries, creating a space for artists and fans alike to explore new sonic landscapes.
Laura Conant is a Brussels-based DJ, producer, designer, and developer whose work blends gender theory, technology, and sound. She co-founded MONTAGE, an experimental music label and event series focused on diversity and accessibility in electronic music. As a radio manager at LYL Brussels, Laura advocates for more inclusive line-ups. Her practice includes creating tools through coding to empower artists from the FLINTA* community. Since 2018, she’s also been part of Bye Bye Binary, a collective exploring gender-fluid typography and inclusive communication within the French language.
Bader Shashit is a DJ, music producer, and filmmaker based in Ghent, whose work blends his cultural heritage, immersed in the sounds of Libyan Bedouin rhythms and Syrian classical music, with a passion for community empowerment. As a multidisciplinary artist and social-cultural worker for Voem vzw, Shashit amplifies voices through projects like Yalla Worldwide, which seeks to democratise nightlife. His work is grounded in creating platforms for communities to connect and express themselves and is committed to fostering authenticity, representation, and mutual support.
