Benefits of Hiring a Professional DJ
Sound Quality
High Quality Audio Experience
We will bring professional level speakers and sound equipment. We will also set up the speakers in the space to bring out the best possible listening experience for all Guests. This is easier said then done because of building and floor layouts.
The Playlist
Large Music Collection
Everyone thinks they're a DJ because they can put together a playlist on a streaming service. However, DJ'ing is both art and science. It's important to read the room and tell a story using music, transitions, and surprises. Your Guests will enjoy the party more just from the fact that there is a dedicated and professional DJ picking the next song that plays.
Experience and Expertise
It's all about knowing
Knowing what to do,
Knowing when to do it,
Knowing How to do it.
Knowing Why to do it.
There is a right time and place to play party bangers. Everyone thinks it's right now, but the DJ knows that tension, anticipation, and build-up are the keys to a good party vibe.
Guest Experience
Give people something to remember
When your Guests show up to a party or event and they see that you hired a DJ, they will immediately feel special.
Adaptability
Time for plan B
You planned ahead and you expect everything to go as planned, until it doesn't. The good thing is that usually no one will notice, especially if you have a DJ who can use music to intentionally keep people pre-occupied until you are are ready to move on to the next activity.
Peace of Mind
Hire a Team
Throwing a party or hosting an event is a lot of work. There are many details to manage and it can become overwhelming. When you hire us as your DJ, you'll have one less thing on your plate to deal with on event day.
Hire a DJ that is the perfect mix of professionalism, skill, empathy, and positivity.

DJ Versus Spotify: Who Wins

However, we are going to give you a few bullets points to think about when considering whether to hire a DJ or depend on Spotify (or whatever other platform the cool kids are using nowadays).
