"We're very excited," says Low. "This is a great opportunity to deliver incredible sound for Argentina's entertainment industry, bringing more than 30 years of expertise in live events and sound system installations." Baeza reinforces Funktion-One's philosophy: "Our main goal is for people to enjoy music and for artists to transmit their message in the best possible way. We don't just sell speakers, we create exceptional experiences. Every project is approached individually, with the highest standards of quality and service." Zaina expressed gratitude for the trust placed in the local team: "We're proud that Tony Andrews and the Funktion-One team in the UK have entrusted us with representing such a respected global brand from Mendoza." Looking ahead, Fernandez highlights the ambitious plans for Argentina: "We'll support Funktion-One's growth with a nationwide rental network, installations in clubs and venues, and strategic partnerships that will expand the family across the region." The night culminated with a performance by revered DJ and producer Richie Hawtin, who shared his appreciation for the brand: "Funktion-One has been part of the explosion of electronic music and techno since the beginning. Its sound has a unique clarity, with bass you can truly feel."
