When pioneering electronic artist Four Tet returned to Alexandra Palace, the creative brief was as deceptively simple as it was ambitious: create a vast, communal dancefloor experience anchored not by a performer, but by light, symmetry and feeling.

Working alongside Production Manager Matt Barker and Lighting Designer Ed Warren, we were delighted to supply the complete lighting and rigging package for the two headline sold-out shows.

Rather than centring attention on the DJ, the production placed the audience at the heart of the experience. At the heart of the show was a striking 58m line of CHAUVET Professional COLORado PXL Curve 12s fixtures, suspended on Kinesys automation system. The automated truss could descend to just above the audience’s heads before tilting into dramatic angled formations, creating a constantly evolving architectural feature throughout the performance.
Supporting the central truss were four straight runs loaded with Ayrton Rivales and GLP JDC1s, simple tools deployed with precision to transform the venue.

We oversaw the deployment of 48 rigging points for the audio infrastructure and cable management. Three trucks’ worth of truss were prepared in pre-rig, stacked and transported ready to be rolled out. On site, the team ensured perfect symmetry among the lighting fixtures using laser measurements.

The scale of the installation required meticulous planning and efficient logistics. Three trucks of truss were pre-built and transported ready for deployment, while ten cable bridges for lighting and four dedicated audio cable bridges ensured the infrastructure remained discreet above the densely packed audience.

Throughout the installation, the LCR team used laser measurements to achieve perfect symmetry across every truss and fixture, ensuring the clean geometric design translated exactly as intended.

Speaking on his collaboration with us, Ed said:

“I work directly with LCR Senior Account Manager Rob Watson, who brings a huge amount of care, detail and consistency to every project. From prep to plots to onsite support, the whole team is solid – reliable gear, meticulous work and a genuinely collaborative attitude.”
