New York, NY (Top40 Charts) LG Electronics USA has partnered with AFROPUNK, the integrated media platform and global events company, to provide unique consumer experiences that celebrate music and high-quality sound featuring LG's latest flagship portable Bluetooth speakers.
LG and AFROPUNK are bridging the connection between passion for music and why great sound matters by collaborating for concerts in New York City and Chicago, providing an opportunity for consumers to literally get "hands-on" in an immersive audio experience.
"There's more to sound than sound," said Michelle Fernandez, head of home entertainment consumer marketing for LG Electronics . "Our partnership with AFROPUNK is about giving music lovers a multisensory experience, inviting listeners to hear, see and touch sounds like never before. Enhanced with Meridian Audio, LG's new PK Series of speakers offer an unrivaled listening experience."
The centerpiece of the program is a unique and immersive interactive zone featuring 30 LG PK7 speakers that will enable visitors to choreograph their own sound experience by touching sensors. What's more, LG and AFROPUNK are kicking off the collaboration with artist Twin Shadow to create an experiential installation at the iconic
National Sawdust venue in Brooklyn. The June 21 installation will feature an oversized version of the motorcycle helmet from Twin Shadow's caer album cover outfitted with LG's PK Series speakers.
LG's PK Series speakers feature premium Meridian Audio technology, demonstrating LG's commitment to creating high-quality audio systems that deliver an outstanding entertainment experience for consumers.
