State-of-the-art venue
E1 is now well known on the world stage for its awe-inspiring, state-of-the-art AV & lighting system. It adds an extra dimension to party proceedings that is unlike any other you will have experienced. On top of that, all three E1 music rooms have custom-built, bespoke Funktion-One sound systems that have been designed, installed and maintained by Sound Services Ltd.
The tech on these is cutting edge with Evolution 6 Mid Highs and the revolutionary new linear transducer-powered BR132A Bass enclosures that mean every beat and hi-hat comes with peerless precision and low-end weight. The venue constantly tweaks and fine-tunes the setup and has added acoustic treatment of the full venue has continual upgrades of the lighting and updated visuals provided by Rebel Overlay.
The Warehouse and Black Studio
The Warehouse and Black Studio offer different atmospheres with their own programming but the DJ setups have been configured and optimised to provide with the very best technology. To be lost in the middle of the dance floor in either is as complete a musical experience as you could imagine.
The autumn-winter season has a renewed focus on E1 residents and London’s own local talent with soon-to-be-announced dedicated resident nights and is working towards ‘Get To Know: In the Warehouse’ which are sit-down sessions and interviews with key members of the E1 community. Add in the launch of the E1 Members WhatsApp community group which gives priority access to best-priced tickets, discounts, VIP drops, exclusives, competitions and much more, and you have a club that continues to innovate on all fronts.
There is plenty more to be announced from E1 though this first wave already offers a mouthwatering run of events.
