FX Rentals encompasses DJ Festival
FX Rentals provided some sound equipment for London's first Encompass DJ festival, which took place around the bars of Shoreditch and Hoxton.
The three-day event featured around 100 international electronic music and visual performers including Goldie, DJ Food, Speedy J and Jazzanova.
FX supplied DJ packages to venues including Cargo, The Spitz, 93 Feet East, and The Vibe Bar. Among the large amount of equipment supplied were Technics SL1210 record decks, Pioneer DJM600 DJ mixers and CDJ1000 scratch CD players, Shure radio mic kits, Shure and AKG dynamic and condenser mics, Mackie mixers and speakers, plus a range of backline and outboard equipment.
"FX are well known to be the most reliable rental company around, and Encompass felt they were the obvious choice when using six venues over a three-day period," said festival organiser Jon Terry. "Their involvement meant we could relax knowing that our extensive equipment requirements were taken care of. In the end, despite last minute additions and the fact it took place over a bank holiday period, the bands had exactly what they needed. A representative from FX even went to visit one of the venues to confirm the requirements and personally went to pick up some equipment that was not ready for collection on time after the event. What more can you ask for?"
