The next session of @bloopgroopdublin will be taking place on Sunday, 25th October from 5:00pm to 10:00pm in Bay 1 at The Digital Hub.

ℹ Bloop Groop is an evening for electronic musicians & producers of all levels - from the mildly curious to professionals - to hang out, test out kit and make music, culminating in a structured collaborative jam where everyone gets involved.

There will be mixing desks and monitors along with projectors and talented visual artists making complementary visuals to accompany the music.

Bloop Groop is about connecting, having fun, learning, trying stuff out and enjoying short performances from newcomers, those returning to performing. It's a low-stress, playful, inclusive, warm environment.

Bloop Groop #20 is brought to you by Caroline Swords and Gary Byrne.

Bloop Groop is a proud member of @flux_dublin and is kindly supported by The Digital Hub.

ℹ For tickets and further information on future events, check out @bloopgroopdublin's website.
