Flare Rayzrs Brighten the EDM Mix In a spectacular New Year's kick-off, Insomniac Events produced two blockbuster EDM festivals at the National Orange Show Fairgrounds in San Bernardino, California, with wondrous stage designs by SJ Lighting. More than 70,000 fans attended Audiotistic and Countdown NYE, shows that featured the biggest names in dance music performing from a large DJ booth highlighted with 12 Solaris Flare Rayzr LED fixtures. "The Flare Rayzr blades were so bright, they were overpowering even at the back of the venue," says stage designer Stephen Lieberman, president of SJ Lighting. "We used the 1m models to detail the DJ booth, making it the focal point of each show. With a 25mm semi-transparent LED screen in front, the Flares were so strong, we had to throttle them back a bit because the blow-through on the screen was so intense." Lieberman adds, "The Rayzr's flexibility allowed us to tailor the look for each artist -- and there were a lot of them. Many asked specifically about the fixtures and how to get their hands on them. In terms of output, color rendering, and overall performance, these fixtures crushed it." SJ Lighting, of Westlake Village, California, specializes in lighting and production design for festivals, nightclubs, and concerts. From festival stages like Lollapalooza, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Coachella, to mood-setting rigs in prestigious Los Angeles and Las Vegas nightclubs, Lieberman has been called an intuitive, holistic designer, who understands both the systems he's designing, and the people for whom he's designing.
