Festival season is always a busy time of year for Colour Sound Experiment, with an increasing number of headline acts on its books, it needed to rapidly scale-up its product portfolio, to include even bigger spots and popular lighting effects such as GLP impressions. Let down by its High Street lender, Colour Sound Experiment turned to Azule Finance, the specialist sound and lighting finance provider, to source a rapid and competitive quote.
Haydn Cruickshank, MD Colour Sound Experiment explained: "We needed to rapidly source finance in order to quickly scale-up our business operations. We've worked with Dizzee in the past, but this year his summer festival tour was on a bigger scale than ever before. He required a carefully tailored lighting solution that would add real impact to his sets on the major festival stages. Despite tight lending conditions, Azule's unique understanding of the lighting industry meant that they could quickly accommodate our finance request, allowing us to meet all of Dizzee's demands as well as cope with phenomenal demand over the festival season."
Gavin Scott, sales director, Azule Finance commented: "At Azule we specialise in lighting and sound finance for the live events and film industry. Our unique understanding of the true value of lighting technology meant that we could provide Colour Sound Experiment with a competitive quote in a matter of days. For example, unlike traditional lenders we understand that products like GLP impressions are in high demand and short supply, making them an excellent hire investment. These market insights put us in a very strong position to advise on the best financial solutions for businesses looking to expand in the lighting and sound industries."
In total, Colour Sound Experiment financed 26 Alpha Spot HPE1500 200-240V Spotlights, 56 B37DC (24*24) R1 LEDs, 20x Chroma-Q Color Force 72 RGBA LED, 20x Chroma-Q Border Light Lens for Color Force 72, 20x Chroma-Q Cyc Lens for Color Force 72, 3x GLP Impression RZ RGB 120 Tourpack, 6 x GLP Impression RZ RGB 120 Tourpack 4.
