LONDON – Lighting and visuals rental company Colour Sound Experiment has invested £350,000 in the latest Robe moving lights to increase its stock and service its busy work schedule. Forty LEDWash 600s, 40 LEDWash 300s and 35 MMX Spots, all from Robe’s Robin range, have joined Colour Sound’s rental inventory, which now features more than 250 Robe moving heads, as well as a few hundred more from other brands.

Colour Sound’s Haydn Cruikshank said, “These particular Robe fixtures are appearing with increasing frequency on band and LD specs, so we need to have them on board,” adding that they are “light, bright and excellent value.”

Robe UK in Northampton delivered the lights.

Colour Sound has been investing steadily in Robe for about five years. “The fixtures have proved reliable and well-engineered and all the original ones are still going strong” says  Cruickshank, “And believe me, they have undergone some serious hammerings on some events!”

The company has also been making a consistent investment in LED technology in that period, which is becoming increasingly popular as many shows and events are making a commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. 

Colour Sound is one of the busiest UK rental companies with a mix of work in concert touring, music, EDM events, festivals and high profile corporate sectors.

The new Robes went into immediate action on a variety of events including Field Day / As One In The Park and Run To The Sun festivals; the 2013 Annual Vodafone Conference in Birmingham; Hospitality at Brixton Academy and on tour with Major Lazer, as the company kick-started its busiest summer to date.
