- Mandragora has signed with Berlin-based Metropole Talent for worldwide live music and touring representation, with agent Raphael Stier leading the deal.
- The signing excludes Belgium and France, where Allo Floride Agency (AFA) continues to handle regional bookings; Kidding Aside remains in place as his management company.
- The deal arrives on the heels of Mandragora's March 2026 single "Jugo de Diamantes," released via D.Y.O.R Atelier under exclusive license to All Night Long, extending a prolific release run that includes the 2024 Beatport chart-topper "Moonlight" with Beltran.
- Metropole recently added Hamburg melodic house and techno standout Magdalena to its roster, signaling a deliberate push into globally touring electronic artists.
Mandragora, the Chihuahua, Mexico-born DJ and producer who has been a force in the global electronic music scene since 2012, has signed with Metropole Talent for worldwide live music and touring representation. Agent Raphael Stier will handle bookings under the new deal.
The signing excludes France and Belgium, where Allo Floride Agency (AFA) retains regional representation. Kidding Aside continues as his management company.
Mandragora is widely credited with pioneering the “futureprog” genre, a blend of classic Goa trance, raw minimal sound design, and vibrant Latin American influences.
His 2024 collaboration “Moonlight” with Beltran sat atop Beatport’s minimal/deep tech chart for over six months, and fan favorites like “Sem Chão,” “Codeine,” and “Shiva Style” have cemented his standing worldwide. He released his latest single, “Jugo de Diamantes,” in March 2026 via D.Y.O.R Atelier under exclusive license to All Night Long.
On the festival circuit, Mandragora has headlined stages at Tomorrowland and Ultra Music Festival, and recently performed an all-night set at Cabaret Aléatoire in Marseille.
The move to Metropole, which recently signed Magdalena for worldwide booking and management, positions him alongside a carefully curated roster of globally touring electronic artists.
Takeaways
Mandragora has spent over a decade building one of electronic music’s most distinctive sounds from an unlikely starting point (the desert city of Chihuahua, Mexico) and this signing reflects that the industry is now paying full global attention.
Partnering with Metropole Talent, a Berlin agency actively expanding its roster of touring electronic artists, is a calculated move. Keeping Allo Floride Agency (AFA) for France and Belgium, arguably his strongest markets based on his touring history, shows this isn’t a full handover; it’s a strategic infrastructure upgrade for the rest of the world.
With “Jugo de Diamantes” fresh out and a catalog that includes a six-month Beatport #1, Mandragora heads into this new chapter with serious commercial momentum behind him.
With “futureprog” gaining mainstream festival footing, could Mandragora’s Metropole deal accelerate the genre’s visibility in markets like North America and Asia? As Latin American artists continue to reshape global electronic music, what does Mandragora’s signing say about where the industry sees the genre’s next growth frontier?
