FAQS + POLICIES

HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE?
Pricing varies, depending on the type of event or project. But you can trust that I will be fair and actively seek to work within your budget, whenever possible. The minimum spend for my services is $200.

IF I REQUEST YOU FOR AN EVENT, WHAT INFO DO YOU NEED FROM ME?
If you request me for an event, please provide answers to the following questions in the "COMMENTS" area of the Contact Form.
  1. How did you hear about me?
  2. What type of event (Wedding? Birthday? Corporate? Other?)
  3. What is the date and time of your event?
  4. What type of music do you require?
  5. Where is your event (Venue? City? Neighborhood?)
  6. What is you budget for the event?
  7. How many guests do you expect?
  8. Is your event indoors or outdoors?
  9. Does your venue provide sound equipment (CD Players, Turntables, Speakers, Mixer)?

AREN'T YOU A MOBILE DJ?
Yes and No. I prefer to perform at public venues (hotels, lounges, restaurants, etc.) rented by the client -- you know, nice, indoor/outdoor venues that maintain their own sound system and have the appropriate connections for DJs. That way, I can simply plug & play and show up with my music and equipment, ready to rock the party.  I am not the typical mobile DJ, who transports turntables, video monitors, speakers, lights, smoke machines, etc. I am much more simple and streamlined. My clients pay for my music consultation and PERFORMANCE only; not the time and labor involved with moving equipment and setting it up and breaking it down.

WHAT'S YOUR STYLE? WHAT TYPE OF MUSIC DO YOU PLAY?
The simple answer is "anything and everything." I guess that means I'm what is called a "open format DJ" -- one that plays a variety of musical styles. However, I can focus on a specific music format, though, if requested.

WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR A CLIENT LOOKING TO HIRE YOU?
Simply, "Trust the DJ." I work in advance with every client to become aware of their specific music needs. I adapt to those needs and use them as a foundation. From there, trust me to effectively inject my own musical instincts to deliver the best experience. Client needs are highest priority, always.

WILL YOU ACT AS EMCEE DURING OUR EVENT?
Yes, I am happy to make all announcements and make sure that the event stays on track according to your time line. However, I prefer to avoid being a "personality" at your event. This means I avoid telling jokes, leading line dances, or leading weird call-and-response chants.

DO YOU REQUIRE A CONTRACT AND A DEPO$IT?

Yes and yes. The deposit is 25% with the balance due in advance of the event.

DO YOU HAVE AGE REQUIREMENTS?

Yes. I prefer to perform for persons 21 and over.
