Margate Electronics is a quarterly curated event, with a musical direction that explores the space between club music and experimental electronic sound. Hardware-focused, concept-driven performances that push creative sonic boundaries.
The autumn edition is about repetitive rhythms, acid basslines, electro, live synths and drum machines. Dance floor focused live sets. As always, expect the experimental, the adventurous, and the innovative.
