Línea Estratégica Reflects Dynamism of Karol G's Bichota Show with Chauvet Professional Color STRIKE M

Karol G performance

Latin Grammy winner Karol G fearlessly blends a mix of genres in her rhythmic sound, treating fans to generous helpings of reggaeton, trap, sertaneja, and a host of other influences. However, there is one common denominator that runs through all of the Medellín born singer's songs, regardless of the source they spring from -- passion!

Karol G concerts are intense, impossible-to-stay-in-your-seat affairs, with no lulls in the action, as she unfurls her unbridled energy, jumping from one musical peak to the next. Reflecting this explosiveness in light requires a bold, fast-moving design, which is precisely what the team at Línea Estratégica delivered for the star with help from a massive collection of the new IP65-rated Chauvet Professional Color STRIKE M.

Conrado Santamaría, CEO of the Línea Estratégica, added 120 of the versatile fixtures to his inventory soon after they became available in Colombia, purchasing them from distributor YAMAKI. His vision was to use the motorized strobe/wash lights to add an extra level of impact to shows. He hasn't been disappointed, as the fixtures have already worked their magic at concerts by the likes of Rubén Blades, Fito Páez, the Morat group, and Myley Cirus.

Andrés Felipe, LD for the Karol G show, provided vivid examples of the mind blowing looks that can be created with the Color STRIKE M, which features two blazingly bright white light tube elements surround by a bright pixel-mappable face of RGB LEDs.

Taking advantage of the fixture's 180° tilt and intense output, Felipe unleashed a torrent of blow-your-head-back strobing effects that moved in sync with Karol G's searing sound. The variety of looks created by the strobe elements was virtually endless, thanks to their 28 pixel-mappable zones.

Joining the white tube elements in animating the concert with vibrant looks were the new fixture's color mixing LED faces, which themselves feature 14 pixel mappable zones. Coordinating the bursts of vivid color blasts with the relentless strobe effects, creating a panorama that could be felt as well as seen.

Even the most seasoned concert-goer could not help but be delightfully surprised by these stunning looks. But that was what Conrado Santamaría had expected all along. He chose the new IP65-rated strobe to "conquer Colombia" with a new level of concert looks. Based on the Karol G show, he is off to a great start.
