The all Electronic Music Open Mic (EMOM) returns to Huddersfield after way too long!
This night is aimed at giving local artists a supportive space in which to play live and experiment, and socialise with like minded people.
Seeking all forms of electronic/experimental music including: ambient, soundtrack, dance, techno, noise, electropop, drone, glitch, experimental hip-hop, field recordings, electrojazz, chiptune, looping, synthwave, trance, live coding, sound design, etc.
Get out of your home studio or bedroom, and come out to a fun, supportive night with other enthusiastic tech heads, dabblers and music fans. You don’t need to be an established artist with a full repertoire. This is for anyone who wants to try their hand at playing live in a safe, motivating environment. Phone apps, gadgets, drum machines, loop stations, groove boxes, DJ controllers, sequencers, samplers, modular synths, computers, digital boxes, loose change and a contact mic .. and everything in between … All welcome!
Come out and meet other music makers, producers and creative types from all walks of music making. There should be plenty of time to talk gear, production techniques and a whole range of inspiring ideas.
Event will run from roughly 7.30pm-11.00pm.
Slots are up to 15 minutes (including set-up and play). The pre-booked slots (6 in total) have all gone but we do have additional walk-in slots available on the night. First come first served, but we strive to get a slot for everyone who wants one and if you don’t get to play there’s always next time.
There is a main stage, full live-music speaker system, and a sound engineer that will handle mixing to the main PA. We will have a table for you to setup on, and another one to the side, for the next performer to prep/dismantle their gear.
Sorry, no acoustic guitar based singer-song writers, unless they are being used to generate soundscapes or some other style of music in keeping with the night (e.g. through pedals, FX units etc.)
