Night of short sets by aspiring electronic music makers, spoken word artists and budding comedians, with a social club for digital aficionados.
The Tuppenny hosts another Swindon Electronic Music Open Mic (EMOM) on Thursday 5 November, starting at 7:00pm. It's a night run by the venue for back-bedroom electronic music makers to play a short set to a sympathetic audience, so if you've been tinkering with a laptop or a synth in your spare room and haven't had a reason to take it out of the house, this is exactly where it fits.
Beyond the music, it works as a social club for passionate amateurs. People turn up to talk tech, swap ideas and forge friendships with fellow digital aficionados, so it's as much about the gear and the process as it is about the finished tracks. The bill isn't for headliners but for aspiring performers, spoken word artists and budding comedians, and the night is noted for being sonically unexpected — you'll hear a fair bit of stuff that doesn't fit into any one easy category.
