About
Music is an essential element of any event, making it a resounding success. Whether it's a wedding, a private or corporate function or a 100th birthday party, my aim is to create the right mood and atmosphere to ensure your celebration is unforgettable.

The secret of a stunning wedding, a successful corporate event or an enjoyable birthday party is unequivocal - MUSIC, with each event having its own unique charm. Your event is tailored specifically to your needs, creating the perfect "Moment to Remember". Every occasion is unique, so I don't use standard playlists.

With over 25 years of experience and more than 30,000 songs in my musical arsenal, I am confident I can cater to every event, ranging from 25 to 250 people. Weddings, corporate events, reunion parties or themed events - you name it, I have covered it! To further broaden my musical knowledge and cue lists, I am also subscribed to Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube Music.

Some of the unique wedding themes that I DJ'd in 2021 include a 1980's power rock/power ballad reception, a dance-floor packed with no overplayed, overused songs, a swing-themed affair with a mix of old-fashioned Glenn Miller/Andrews Sister and NewWave Techno Swing, a no-song released before 1990's theme, a no-slow-songs theme, and lastly, a heavy metal extravaganza!

I have also entertained during other occasions such as a 50th class reunion, a 75th birthday party, an 18-year-old Marvel themed party and a 1950's style "Happy Days Are Here Again" bash to celebrate the lifting of Covid restrictions.

I am eager to hear about what plans you have in mind for your special day. My main objective is to create smiles and keep the dance floor alive. If you're not searching for a DJ who plays ear-pounding bass mixes, then I am the throwback DJ for you, who believes you are the star of your event. Whether it's an emcee for your corporate event, or your wedding celebrations, I am not the cheesy "are you ready to rumble" type.

John was the DJ I chose for my birthday celebration. Right from the beginning, he made certain he had all the songs I requested for, even the ones that are not usually played at parties. Our communication before the event was excellent. He arrived at the venue ahead of me and had everything set up, including moving tables to create the dance floor. He played a variety of music that everyone enjoyed, from country and swing to salsa, waltzes, and even the Hora. He was gracious about guest requests for songs. Everyone had a fantastic time, which even prompted our bartender to ask about John for their future events. I wish I could choose the other two options, Value and Punctuality, because John was excellent in all aspects. If I needed a DJ again, I would undoubtedly hire John without hesitation. Thank you for making my party memorable, John!

Working with John was an absolute delight! Our wedding had 60 attendees, and he ensured that our day was free of stress and that the dance floor was filled all night by gauging the audience. We are extremely grateful for everything John did to make our wedding the most unforgettable night of our lives. Thank you, we couldn't be more content!

John, along with his son, exuded warmth and geniality. He exhibited remarkable responsiveness, accommodating a significant last-minute change in ceremony technology due to the officiant contracting Covid-19 merely two days prior to the wedding. John ingeniously arranged for the projection of an audio/video of a pre-recorded speech. During the reception, he suggested games that were very well received. Attendees even asked him for the playlist. His approach to music was refreshing, as he refrained from excessive talking and awkward song transitions. Instead, he let people dance and played songs in their entirety. If you are in search of a straightforward and easy-to-work-with DJ, John is your guy.

He played uninterrupted music for eight hours straight which greatly aided in the planning process. He did an outstanding job with the announcements and was adaptable to changes. Additionally, he was personable and easy to work with, truly an awesome individual!
