Onedot Supports Dom Dolla's Montreal Performance with CHAUVET Professional Fixtures from Solotech

	"These powerful strips served to create bold looks behind the artist when the screen was off," says Guilmette.

Grammy nominated DJ, Dom Dola, who's enjoying a meteoric rise in popularity 2025, transformed the famed Montreal-based Parc Olympique stadium into a downtown dance club, shaking its rafters with his deep house grooves and driving beats. Moving with the music notes was an bold and direct light show marked by sharp patterns of beams and intense color combinations that worked with Dom Dolla's performance to get everyone on their feet.

Designed by Onedot working with Dom Dollas team, the show drew power from CHAUVET Professional COLORado PXL Bar 16, Color STRIKE M, and Maverick Storm 2 BeamWash fixtures supplied by Solotech.

Working from drawings by Louis-Xavier Bonneau of Onedot and input from Erik Nowosielski-Lamoureux, the show's design was meant to remain simple, powerful, and efficient. "The vision was to provide bold, clean looks that would support the energy of the performance without clutter or unnecessary complexity, allowing the designer to make maximum impact with minimal elements," notes Onedot's Jean-Sebastien Guilmette.

The show, which was operated by Dom Dolla's team, and the opening acts operated by Jerome Robitaille of Onedot was anchored by the PXL Bar 16 battens, which were positioned in two straight 40' lines, one above and one below the video wall. "These powerful strips served to create bold looks behind the artist when the screen was off," says Guilmette. "They produced strong contrasts and dramatic shadows, which are very much part of Dom Dolla's visual signature. The battens also gave us flexibility for eye-catching pixel-mapped effects when the video wall was active.

"We selected the COLORado PXL 16 battens because they are bright, powerful fixtures capable of both narrow beam effects and wide washes," continues Guilmette. "Their pixel control was excellent for dynamic chases and effects that complement electronic music performances. Additionally, the fixture is sleek and blends seamlessly into the rig, without compromising trim height -- an important factor for mobile stages where space is limited."

The Maverick Storm 2 fixtures were relied on for key lighting. Being IP65-rated, they provided the production team with "peace of mind" at the outdoor venue. They also energized the show with their crips colors, while their wide zoom range allowed them to provide both strong front washes and tight, focused looks from front-of-house.

As for the Color STRIKE Ms, they were chosen as the giant dance party's strobe fixtures. "We spread them across the top of the rig and also positioned two rows of six fixtures each on the side trusses," says Guilmette. "This placement added depth and expanded the rig's visual possibilities, enabling a wide variety of strobe and blinder looks that could shift the energy of the performance in an instant."
