On September 11th, the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya hosted the Blackworks 7th Anniversary. This hard techno event brought twelve hours of electronic music—running from 5:00 PM to 5:00 AM—to the Montmeló paddock. The celebration also marked Blackworks’ debut at this venue, which is typically associated with major motor racing competitions.
For the occasion, the circuit’s paddock hosted a production specifically designed to complement the intense sound and visuals characteristic of Blackworks events. The outdoor space served as the stage for a marathon event where techno, hard techno, and industrial sounds defined the lineup.
The bill featured eleven national and international artists, including prominent names from the current electronic music scene. O.B.I., Nico Moreno, Skryption, Dexphase, Lucia Gea, Paolo Ferrara, HOLY PRIEST, I Hate Models, Raxeller, A.N.I., and Ben Techy were part of a program that kept the music playing throughout the afternoon and night.
Choosing the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya provided a unique setting for this type of event. The paddock—covering an area of approximately 48,000 square meters—stepped away from its usual automotive and motorcycle racing activities for a few hours to host a large-scale electronic music production.
Thanks to the trust placed in them by BW Music, the show’s production company, Fluge Audiovisuales was responsible for supplying the sound equipment. Below is a breakdown of the key equipment installed:
