Solotech invests in Robe BMFLs and MegaPointes

Canadian and North American based rental and technical production specialist Solotech has purchased over 100 x Robe BMFLs and 26 x MegaPointes in its latest investment in the Czech moving light brand, adding to an already extensive stock of Robe Spikies and Pointes.

The sales started in December 2016 in preparation for The Weeknd’s ‘Starboy’ tour, where LD Sooner Routhier specified BMFL Spots and WashBeams and Spikies. It continued with Chance the Rapper, whose LD Michael Apostolos specified BMFL Spots, BMFL WashBeams, LEDWash 1200s and CycFX 8s for Chance’s US tour in 2017.

Lady Gaga’s ‘Joanne’ tour was also serviced worldwide by Solotech, with creative director and lighting designer LeRoy Bennett choosing to use over 200 Robe moving lights. Solotech was also among the first to invest in Robe’s MegaPointe fixture, the first batch of which are deployed on Celine Dion’s ‘Celine’ Las Vegas show staged at the Colosseum, Caesar’s Palace. Long term LD Yves Aucoin has integrated 24 MegaPointes into the set.
