The renowned Belgian musician Stromae, famous for international hits like “Alors on danse,” has left an indelible mark on the world of live concerts with his Multitude Tour 2022/23. Known for offering unique stage experiences, Stromae has taken stage production to another level by incorporating ten KUKA robots into his show, resulting in an impressive and futuristic spectacle.
In his recent Instagram post, the artist revealed that the robots were the “stars” of the show, highlighting that they were the main inspiration behind the innovative stage setup. These robots, suspended in the air and strategically placed on the stage, not only complement the music but also become fundamental actors, offering choreographed movements that blend with giant visual screens, creating an immersive and unique atmosphere. The robotic choreography and music integrate perfectly, taking attendees to an unprecedented sensory experience.
The show has been acclaimed for its originality and the technical perfection with which it has been carried out. The tour has captivated audiences across various continents, from North America to Europe, with performances at some of the world’s most iconic venues, such as Madison Square Garden in New York and the Coachella Festival in California, where all tickets sold out quickly. The mix of music, emotion, and robotics has left an indelible mark on attendees, who have witnessed one of the most avant-garde experiences in the music industry.
However, not everything was easy in the logistics of the tour. The integration of industrial robots in a live concert presented numerous challenges, especially due to the need to assemble and disassemble the robots in a few hours to move them to the next city. To ensure the success of this complex task, KUKA, the company in charge of the robots, provided exceptional technical support, with its global service network available at all times to ensure the robots operated smoothly, regardless of location or time of day.
Unfortunately, Stromae was forced to cancel the last dates of the tour due to health reasons, leaving many fans wanting more. However, to cheer up his loyal audience, the artist has released a concert film, which can be seen for the first time on YouTube. This special Christmas gift offers a unique opportunity to relive the show full of emotions and technology, combining the best of live music and technological innovation. Stromae’s followers, and lovers of music and robotics, will be able to enjoy this visually impressive and emotionally moving journey.
This release is not only a tribute to his fans but also to the technological advances that have allowed live music to reach new frontiers. Without a doubt, the Multitude Tour is a milestone that will be recorded in concert history as one of the most avant-garde and memorable of the decade.
