Serving the San Francisco Bay Area New Music Community

Sun, Nov 9 2025 8:00 PM


On Sunday, Nov. 9th, the San Francisco Electronic Music Festival presents S’hells Gate, a three-piece outfit comprising members Jonathan Carr, Matt Brownell, and Cat Lauigan, who fuse elements of arpeggiated electronics, experimental poetry / processed trance vocals, oscillating hypnotic drones, and industrial dub rhythms. Lauren Sarah Hayes follows, exploring instability, vulnerability, and unpredictability through improvisation with her hybrid analogue-digital live electronics performance system, a form of embodied machine intelligence. With punk/metal roots, DADABOTS close the festival using machine-learning as an extreme way to make sound and eliminate humans from music.

Cost: $20-$50
