Italy - Italian festival Ralf in Bikini took place on 25 April, offering 12 hours of techno, house and minimal music from Italian and international DJs, including Ralf, the event’s protagonist, at Cattolica’s Bikini Disco Dinner.
For the first time, the festival featured an Outline GTO loudspeaker system.
Emporio On Stage from Scandicci (Florence) was the rental company responsible for the sound design and the installation of the Outline systems, using GTO as the main rig and Mantas 28 systems for both the beach stage and the roofed zone.
Mauro Bianchi, owner of the White Events agency and co-organiser of Ralf in Bikini, stated: “I’d already had the pleasure of listening to the GTO at Rimini’s Music Inside Festival, in an indoor situation, and greatly appreciated its ‘elegant badness’.
At Ralf in Bikini, it was the first time I’d heard it outdoors, and I was even more satisfied: the sound performance and the impact on the public was beyond my expectations, to the point that we even received compliments from the clients – not just experts.
“We’ve already reconfirmed it for the 2020 edition of Ralf in Bikini, which will be the tenth and where we’ll be launching a stage dedicated exclusively to live music. I’ll try to use GTO whenever I can. For me it is currently the reference point.”
