Production Document
Mixmode Tech Rider
DJ + Live Electric Guitar
This is a high-energy EDM show. Preferred setup for the strongest possible show.
Production is essential. Mixmode is an EDM performance built around drops. Lights, a large stage, and big effects (lasers, haze, strobes, CO2) are not decoration - they are part of the show. A strong PA plus active lighting and FX is the difference between a DJ set and a concert moment.
Flexible. If something is unavailable, send us your production specs and we can adapt.

Fewer high-impact elements used well > lots of mediocre production.
