For Performers

We offer 20-minute slots for anyone making electronic music and ready to play live. Bring your gear - laptop, synth, sampler, groovebox, modular, etc. - just prepare a mono or stereo mix before you arrive, and make sure you bring ¼" jack leads to connect to our DI boxes.

As we're currently unfunded and need to cover costs to make the event sustainable, we need to ask performers for £5 too. We hope you understand. If you bring groupies with you we'll waive your admission. We're trying to build a sustainable event, and once we have proof of viability we'll be able to apply for support.

Interested in synths and learning more?

Since 2018 Aldershot has been home to another unrelated event called MODCAF, or the Modular Cafe, also taking place at the West End Centre. Taking place on the 3rd Thursday of the month, they have performances, tech talks, and lots of time for geeking out on the music making equipment people have brought. It's a great place to meet people, see what others are using, and offers a safe space for people to learn and take their first steps into performing live electronic music.
