Funktion-One Dance Stack®

The Funktion-One Dance Stack® is a state of the art loudspeaker system designed specifically for the club world. Other clubs that use Funktion-One include HEAVEN in London and CIELO in New York. Berlin’s legendary techno club, BERGHAIN, has Dance Stacks® like those in Connections.

  • 8 Mac 101s throwing bright narrow beams of colourful light as they move around.
  • 8 MX10s around the outside of the dance floor and a cluster of 6 in the centre.
  • 6 Volkslicht LED wash lights.
  • 2 Atomix strobes (just to throw you off guard).

At Connections we have full production shows, drag shows, lesbian mud wrestling and music acts which take place on our fully functional stage that comes complete with a dressing room, shower, rigging points with motorised chain blocks and a show curtain. The show curtain opens to reveal a back wall that has:

  • 16 LED Fusion bars to add even more sparkle to the room.
  • Another 8 Mac 101s on the floor casting beams of light to the ceiling.
  • 4 Mac 250s scanning the crowd the entire length of the room.
