Can you cut me a good deal?     >>      Always!

We always strive to meet our clients highest expectations. That includes providing the best prices for all of our services including but not limited to Professional DJ Service, MC, Lighting, Visual FX, Photography, and Video Recording.

How do you feel about working with a Live Band?     >>      Love it!

It would be our honor to work with a band. We have done it before and will will gladly do it again. Throwing in Jingles and Samples to get the crowd going. Adding in Live Sample FX of the singer. Additionally, we can connect our sound system to yours or vice versa and sit with you through the sound test to optimize the sound quality.

What's the benefit of hiring you?

As opposed to not hiring a DJ at all.:

If you get a home sound system, you risk blowing up the speakers and end the party prematurely.

Without a DJ, you won't be able to play requests on the fly, be able to read the crowd, and play the right music to fit the entire crowd.

A DJ can let you preview the music before playing it to make sure it's the right song.

A DJ will transition music tracks with proper mixing so the crowd can keep on dancing. A DJ has more music than you do!

A DJ knows what he/she is doing!!

As opposed to hiring another DJ:

We will NOT charge you to meet with us.. no matter how long the meeting lasts.

Our rates are as low as they can go for Professional service.

We suggest a playlist based on the timeline and you confirm it, change it, or build your own.

We arrive and finish setup at least one hour before the contracted start time.

Payments can be made in any of the following formats (Check, Cash, Credit Card).

Setup looks professional.

Microphone and Microphone Stand are always included with every DJ service.

Last minute changes are always welcomed and properly implemented.

Our music database contains every track ever listed as top 100 tracks in the Billboard top charts dating all the way back to 1950's.

Our music database contains music from just about every region of the world.

If the total fee of service is less than 1k, there is no deposit required.

You get 30 days to cancel the contract free and clear.

You get a 4 page contract specifying everything. You are protected.

Our one of a kind Visual FX Combo Pack: a combination of dj lighting, video fx, photo montage, spot light, and more.

Video recording in Full HD (1080p) at no extra charge.

Photography at no extra charge.

As opposed to hiring a Live Band:

With a DJ, Frank Sinatra will sound like Frank Sinatra, Dean Marin will sound like Dean Martin. Every song will sound the way it should.

With a band, every song will sound about the same. Same singer, same band, same instruments, same everything.

DJ service is always much less than that of a Band. Setup time for DJ service is significantly less than a band.

With a DJ, setup location can be just about anywhere (floor, booth, stage). With a band, setup must be on a big stage.

With a DJ, there is no need for a special form of power outlet. With a band, you will need much electrical power.

A band will not give you huge discounts on other DJ related services such as Video Montage.
