Robe Rocks the House in Slovenia with DJ ChuckieWhen the Playboy White Invasion dance event hit Ljubljana's Gospodarsko Razstavisce, 6,000 dance enthusiasts raised the roof and appreciated Dutch mixmaster DJ Chuckie and others including Arty, Thomas Gold, and R.I.O -- all illuminated by a Robe moving light rig. The rig was supplied by locally-based rental company Intralite and designed by their Primoz Kosir. Trussing was installed over the main stage which featured the DJ booth and all performers, with more over the audience, providing lighting positions. The Robe moving lights included 16 ROBIN 600 Beams,12 ColorSpot 1200E ATs, 16 ColorWash 575 AT zooms, eight ColorSpot 575 ATs, and eight ColorWash 575 XTs. Kosir placed the Robin 600 Beams and some ColorWashes on the main stage, with 12 of the 600 Beams rigged to vertical trusses behind the DJ booth. The rest of the fixtures were scattered around on the different audience trusses. The Robin 600 Beams were used to achieve long tight 'sword' like beams of light which penetrated right down the other end of the venue. The ColorWashes were used generally to wash the stage, while the ColorSpots added some aerial effects. The lightshow was also operated for the event by Kosir using an Avolites Pearl Expert and a Touch Wing, running Titan software. Intralite, owned by Ales Pirman, is a leading Slovenian lighting rental players, and has been a keen Robe user for many years. They also enjoy stellar service and support from Robe's Slovenian distributors, MK Light Sound.
