“If you put out quality music, you’re always going to be in a good place.” Romeo Santos told an interviewer.

The show was the only London stop in Santos’ Vol. 3 World Tour. Adding to the dynamic vibe that resonated throughout the arena was a collection of 84 CHAUVET Professional fixtures.Read More »Bigabox Productions Reflects Romeo Santos Magic at O2 with CHAUVET Professional and DMX Productions

GLP JDC Lines Bring Fisher’s Cardiff Castle EDM Extravaganza to Life

Experienced Lighting Designer Anthony Hazelden has made the journey from classic theatre to high-octane dance raves effortlessly, his generic stage lighting of yesteryear now replaced by next generation hybrid LED strobes, including GLP’s new JDC Line 1000. For a recent EDM concert within Cardiff Castle he not only provided a cutting-edge floor package for headliner Fisher, for whom he was LD, but the generic house rig for the support acts.
