Bowie Nights: Pitchblack Playback
Three Bowie albums you love – like you’ve never heard them before. To celebrate the July release of three remastered albums: Ziggy Stardust, Let’s Dance, and Earthling, Lightroom and Pitchblack Playback proudly present three listening parties which invite you to dive deep into the music, before resurfacing to enjoy David Bowie: You’re Not Alone with a newfound appreciation for the musical mastery behind Bowie’s most iconic songs.
Experience total darkness inside Lightroom and lose yourself in the music as the album played in full through Lightroom’s powerful spatial audio system, HOLOPLOT – as used in the Las Vegas sphere, and for which Lightroom is the only permanent UK installation.
Following the listening party, grab a drink and return to the space to enjoy David Bowie: You’re Not Alone – you just might find you see it in a whole new light…
