In its most basic form, Open System is an event where electronic musicians bring their music along and we play it loud for them… but in reality, it’s so much more than that.
We asked our community what it meant to them and was staggered by the answers
What started out as a rejection of the clean, sterile, conformist nature of the world we live in today mutated into an event series where the brash and abrasive was celebrated and, two events in, has become somewhat of a movement thrusting itself forcibly into the musical landscape of Chelmsford.
EMOM’s back at Hot Box next week, for it’s bi-monthly stint, on Wednesday 15th and Resonance regulars will notice a few members of our community on the flyer. DA22A, Nick Smith (performing with Jo Morrison) and Bang Bang Beep Beep will be laying down the beats, rhythms and noises alongside a stellar collection of electronic artists.
7pm till Midnight
This is an open call to all the electronic music producers of Essex….
It doesn’t matter how much you may have spent on a set of studio headphones or monitors, nothing quite compares to hearing your music in a club on a loud soundsystem.
7pm till Midnight

What does Open System mean to you?
We love Open System. It’s been instrumental in building our incredible community into what it is today.
We could tell you why it’s amazing, but we thought it would be better to let our community explain instead.
Come find out for yourself at Open System on 2nd July
Oscillate Live: MetroGlow – 20th July 2023
Inspired by the works of the early electronic pioneers, his music is a nod to a by gone era whilst being set very firmly in the 21st century. Tinges of synthwave, Krautrock, electronica and trip hop are all present.
His prolific output has lead to radio plays across the world as well as a number of live performances in our City.
