about
We start 2024 with a look back to look forward, fusing history with the future.

There is an undeniable growth in a new generation of electronic music fans, DJs, and promoters. When listening to mixes from House, Techno, DNB, and UKG DJs over the last couple of years, we have been noticing quite a few remixes, remakes, and new tracks with individual elements/samples of music from the foundational years of early 90s electronic music. It is easy to hear the elements of trance, hardstyle/hardcore, hard house, breakbeat, jungle, and the general early rave sound coming through and making a comeback.

We want to touch on this and have a night that journeys through the history that led us to what we currently know as Drum and Bass. We have invited 3 well respected DJs, which have a long and deep knowledge of the roots of electronic music, early rave scene, and what has lead us to the Jungle & Drum and Bass sound that we know today.

Expect a night of classic Drum and Bass, Breaks, Breakbeat, Oldskool, Hardcore, Rave Sounds, and everything in between.

  • OMA is proudly one of Hong Kong's only dedicated club for underground house, Techno, Trance ,bass & break music , which boast more watts per square foot than any other venue you can imagine. The rough cosiness in a petite but yet bombastic environment with a massive screen playing to your mind with crystal-clear (HD) psychedelic graphic patterns over few drinks is one of a kind experience not many clubs can offer. The same spot has played host for over 12 years to a large and ever-loyal clientele and new customers alike in various guises,namely, Phi-b's, Yumla & then Midnight & Co. OMA was born in 2014 to carry on the fine traditions it has inherited and had taken fun to the next level. It continued the no fuss, underground madness, where music and ONLY music matters with the best local and overseas DJs gracing the booth and letting the music to do the rest of the talking. In the 6th year under this badge, OMA had invested heavily in upgrading the decoration (whilst maintaining the original New York and Detroit underground music loft culture) and in June 2019 we have further installed expensive new music systems & hardware to supplement the improved decoration. Precision Devices drivers (as used in Funktion-1 speakers) and best Lab Gruppen amplifiers and award winning mixers (Xone-96 & Midas Venice F16) were added to the booth stable together with dbx 4800 crossovers to up the music a few more notches. Come and feel the difference...you won’t regret your visit and maybe addicted to the sounds!
