I AM HARDSTYLE
CLF IS HARDSTYLE Dutch-based lighting brand deploys a plethora of lighting fixtures for I AM HARDSTYLE, a one-day electronic hardstyle festival in Mannheim, Germany.
The brainchild of hardstyle champion Brennan Heart and ratified promoters Musical Madness, the celebration of the electronic dance genre implored over 10,000 revellers to show their true colours and truly party hard. The team at 4Light Showprojects was tasked with the brief of designing a brand-new concept for the German rendition of I Am Hardstyle production, which marked the start of the year for the one-day electronic hardstyle festival. 4Light Showprojects Technical Manager, Ronnie Santegoeds, discussed the concept. “The briefing was to make a design that could scale from 5,000 to 15,000 visitors.”

Descending on the hardstyle vanguard of Mannheim for the third time, I Am Hardstyle raised the Maimarkthalle roof once again. Santegoeds commented: “Maimarkthallen was a venue without an in-house rig or technical equipment, so all of the material used in the design was made available at Rent-All and local AV rental companies, which meant we didn’t need to ship or freight equipment.” The venue typically hosts trade shows, conferences, club nights and music festivals all year round. However, the exhibition space presented a litany of challenges. “Because of the limited roof capacity and positions, we brought in Eurotruss TT/XT/ST trussing to create a prerig, landed them on
Aorun, an ultra-bright beam fixture which combines high output, fast movements and an extensive feature package. The fixture utilises a 330W HRI light source which produces heavy mid-air effects through the special designed 169mm lens. The fixture has an eight and sixteen facet prism on-board. These prisms can be combined for even wider effects. Additionally, the gobo wheel offers three animation ranges, creating unique beam effects. A softening frost completes the effect package of the Aorun.
