Creators of the facet-design Marks & Spencer café , London firm Kiwi & Pom recently teamed up with another British establishment, collaborating with London's renowned karaoke bar Lucky Voice to create the Party Pod.
Tagged as the world's most sophisticated and portable karaoke experience, they designed the aptly named Party Pod for paramount user experience. A toy-like unit houses the computer used to store the songs, as well as the audio equipment needed to connect to the microphone, speaker and TV. The Party Pod’s technical configurations synch monthly song updates directly from a computer into the machine’s system and an integrated touch-screen interface makes for a modern yet friendly song selection process.
For those who prefer not to own a karaoke machine, hiring the Lucky Voice Pop-Up Party experience delivers a bespoke Lucky Voice touchscreen unit containing thousands of songs, a plasma screen to display the lyrics and a sleek Bose sound system with two wireless mics to your door. The only kicker? The system is only available to hire in London. For information and rates visit the Lucky Voice website.
