Ken was great! He met with us early and got all of our requests in prior to our wedding. When the day came he came early to make sure everything was good to go and took instruction well from our wedding coordinator. We had an outdoor/indoor wedding and speakers, mic, set up all went by with a breeze. The vibes, MC Skills and music were all there the night of our wedding. He felt our crowd and kept it going all night! If you need a DJ for anything DJ Kenfused is the way to go! Thank you again KEN! read more

Super professional , the set up was great , a little windy that night but once everyone got up too dance it felt amazing! Thank you!!! Everyone had an amazing time. read more

This year for my daughters 8th birthday , she requested a dance party! I researched possible ideas and thought it would be really cool to have a "house party" with an actual DJ! Even cooler, if I could find a local aspiring DJ to spin. I asked around locally on Benicia happenings and through friends and was was given the name of DJ KenFused, but was told that he had a young son who also DJ'd by the name DJ ProteJay. I talked with Ken and got the details about his son and knew we had to book the duo. Communication with Ken was a breeze, I was able to get the contract done electronically and drop a deposit check locally. I sent over a playlist.. probably later than I should have and it was never an issue for Ken. Party day arrived and Ken and Jayden set up earlier in the day and made sure our space would work. (I have a modest 1800sft home) I hosted 25, 8 year old girls in my living room and DJ ProteJay turned the party out!! I was so impressed by him ( he's only 12) and I was also really proud of him too.( The mom in me I guess) All our requested songs were played and mixed and the vibe was electric!! The girls had the best time and reported back to me " That was the most EPIC party ever!" Highly recommended and exceeded my all expectations. Only one problem.... HOW do I top this years party..... next year ! read more

Hired DjKen for my wedding reception at Roaring Camp on 1/26/19 and have nothing but great things to say. He was professional, timely , personable and great to work with. He had everything organized , was a fabulous MC and guests gave great feedback on the music and atmosphere throughout the night. Definitely worth the price , easy to work with and would hire again for any event . read more

Wrecked our wedding. For our ceremony, DJ Ken did not pay attention to our recessional cue, and we were awkwardly standing there before he caught my visual look of panic in front of all our guests and began playing the song. During our reception entrance, he COMPLETELY botched it. He forgot a groomsman, mispronounced a name, assigned "matron of honor" and "maid of honor" to the wrong individuals. This is despite a clear set of instructions we emailed him AND a prep call. If that wasn't enough, he didn't play any of the music on the Spotify list we painstakingly prepared for him, until we asked our planner to inform him. If you want your guests to remember your space cadet DJ, go with fake schmoozy DJ Kenfused, because he clearly was confused. read more

Ken was our DJ for our wedding. Ken got to the venue super early to make sure he had the proper setup at all the locations. Ken was amazing and played all the songs we wanted for the pre-ceremony, procession, recession, cocktail hour, father-daughter dance, mother-son dance and open dance. The open dance music was a mix of our selection and his selections which was perfect and kept our guests on the dance floor. I highly suggest Ken as a DJ specially for a wedding. read more

He was a amazing! I hired him for a double graduation party. Our guest were very happy with the music playlist. Ken was very accommodating and everything went very smoothly. read more

Ken was a consummate professional for my wedding that we hired him for. He handled everything end to end, from the technical challenges of our wedding venue (which were complex and variable due to COVID restrictions), handling song requests from guests, MC-ing, transitioning between events, and overall being very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend! read more

Book him now! Ken is seriously the man. He was our DJ for our wedding and not only were we completely satisfied, several of my guests have commented on how much fun he was! I emailed him a list of songs because music was important to us, especially for our ceremony we picked some different songs that most people don't hear at weddings but Ken had no issue giving us the day we envisioned and of course he threw his own flair. He is a great DJ that really does keep the party moving and really helped us keep our timing on track. read more

Boom! Ken was on time, prepared and was a great addition to our wedding. No mistakes, great music selection, and an overall nice guy. Very competitively priced, good equipment and had a plan. Thanks for helping to make our wedding special Ken. (This guy showed up at 3pm for a 6pm wedding....I mean, come on! Awesome!) read more

Ken is a true DJ. Hire him already!! My husband and I hired Ken for our wedding reception in Benicia. He came recommended and we couldn't be happier with how everything worked out. He totally got us, listened and executed! He has a great energy about him, it can be addicting =) His set-up, his talent, his knowledge, his professionalism, and his arsenal of music-clearly qualify him as a true DJ. He was easy to work with before, during and after the wedding. Our guests had a good time chatting with him, he worked well with our other vendors and he made our night so much fun and a breeze. He clearly has a passion for music and DJ'ing- give him a try and you won't be disappointed. Thanks again Ken! read more

One of my husband's groomsmen recommended DJ Ken to us for our wedding reception- and I'm so happy we chose to go with him. He has high energy, a great sense of humor, and is a very genuine nice guy. I really liked that he was prompt in getting back to us whenever we emailed or contacted him. He has a great voice for introductions, and is perfect for family-friendly events. He was careful not to play songs with cursing at our reception- and I'm sure my conservative parents from Texas appreciated that. I definitely recommend Ken to add some personality and energy to any event! read more

We worked with Ken for our wedding in June 2011 and had the most memorable time thanks to his professionalism, attention to detail, ability to set up at four different locations on the same property (ceremony, cocktail, reception, after party), mix music to create a stomping dance floor and his flexibility in managing 14 different sets of music thanks to a neurotic bride's way of planning her wedding :) His prices are competitive, he is a great Emcee, is very well experienced with mixing music (we had an international selection that needed to be mixed with top hits) and he delivered what we asked for. The end result? The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last and our guests were disappointed to hear the music fade when it came time to end the show. We'd hire him again in heartbeat! read more

Whenever I need a DJ, Ken is my go to guy! I just hired Ken for my wife's college reunion last week and everyone loved the job he did! I first met ken a few years ago when he DJ'ed for a friend's company Christmas party. His playlist was awesome and kept everyone dancing - not an easy task considering the variety of ages and tastes of those present. So impressed was I with ken that I hired him to do DJ at my wedding as well as a couple other events after that! Ken is reliable, amiable, and great at what he does - play great music! You won't regret hiring him! read more

We had found Ken here on yelp last year and decided to book him for our wedding this April. He was excellent at communicating and getting us what we needed through e-mail and phone. He showed up to set-up on time for our wedding with all his professional equipment and did an excellent job dressing the part as well. He has a great sense of humor and is a really nice guy. I would recommend him for ANY event, not just a wedding. He plays anything you want and does a great job at feeling the crowd. He takes care of himself and your event, very low stress. A+++ read more

DJ Kenfused did our wedding ceremony and reception. He was a great dj, played everything we wanted, our guests enjoyed him, and best of all, he did it with a great smile and kept the crowd involved. Prior to , he was very professional and did his best to contact us and see what we wanted, the options of events, he had it all. I'd recommend him for any kind of event, he will make yours a special day to remember. Thank you for making ours special! Lupita and Aldo the newlyweds! read more

Unfortunately, DJ KenFused is booked on the day of my wedding so I won't be able to use his services but I'm commenting on how professionally personable and helpful he is. He's relaxed with a great sense-sense-of-humor and clearly knows his stuff. Since he won't be able to work our wedding, he's kindly offered referrals. I would recommend any of my friends to him in a heartbeat. read more

We hired Ken for our wedding. Could not have been happier with him. Ken is amazing at what he does. He has a true passion for his job and that shows. Ken is extremely easy to work with and excellent with communication. His music library goes for days, any song you want, he's got. If he doesn't have it, he'll get it. Ken knew how to read the crowd and keep them involved the whole time. Ken had the crowd laughing and engaged. No flaws and had the night running smooth. To anyone who is looking for a wedding DJ, look no further, Ken is the man! read more

DJ Kenfused does it AGAIN!! Since we used him for our wedding a little over 2 years ago, I've been recommending him to anyone and everyone! And he NEVER fails to deliver!! Last night at my sisters wedding was no exception...he was amazing! At the last minute we had a surprise speech from the best man who wasn't even at the wedding but Ken was able to help make it all happen to surprise the bride and groom. He had all the aunties, uncles and grandmas up on the dance floor for HOURS!! If you are looking for the complete package, then look no further...this guy has everything covered!! read more

We hired Ken for our wedding this past weekend (8/29/15)!! We were so impressed and happy with him. He guided me me through everything starting months ago. I made changes a few times and asked lots of questions to which he answered promptly. He was very personable and professional, his music selection was great I my guests all loved him. If anyone asks me for a dj recommendation I will faithfully recommend Ken!! Thanks so much Elise & Joe read more

DJ Kenfused recently DJed my wedding on 05.05.2018. Long story short, he was great 5 stars!!! He played all of the songs I wanted for particular moments of the night (20 or so) correctly and on cue. You can give him a list of songs that you want, or you can tell him your favorite genres and let him loose. He hyped up the crowd for our reception grand entrance. He got our guests off their butts and dancing throughout the night. He was able to MC our table games to let the guests know who can take home the table centerpieces, and he also MCed the "shoe game." For both times he MCed, his fun and humorous personality shined through; the crowd loved him! He's great, I would recommend him to any of my friends getting married in the future. read more

Dj KenFused is phenomenal! I was looking for a DJ for my daughters' 21st Birthday... I booked with a DJ prior to finding DJ KenFused, this DJ canceled on me a week before the event. I then found DJ KenFused and he was able to do the event last minute and was flexible with working with our budget. He's very professional, fun and upbeat! He has great experience and is very attentive - he wanted to get to know my daughter and the type of music she likes instead of just playing a list of songs. He had all the great lighting and top quality equipment that worked for the space we had. It's very apparent he loves what he does, and I would hire him again in a heartbeat! read more

DJ KenFused made the night unforgettable. We held a private party at our University in Oakland, and this DJ really did a great job. From Hip-Hop to Electronica, the music was fantastic, the sound loud and clear, and the people was dancing until the end the event. Good thing about DJ KenFused is that he is really easy to work with, always available, and he just is a very nice guy. I recommend his services from all types of events! read more

From the very first conversation with DJKenFused I knew I wanted him for my wedding. It was a last minute add and a great one. He really played great music and we had a lot of fun with the dancing. My grandkids loved running around the large dance floor and the music gave the toddlers the prefect beats to wear them out. We celebrated my husbands parents who have been married for 65 years. It was priceless, and when other married couples came, it gave me a warm feeling that love was shared throughout the room. My wedding of 03/21/15 was a lot of fun, we had great food and music. Most people are remembering the food and party anyway. Our ceremony was priceless and prefect. Thank you Ken. read more

Unfortunately DJ Ken totally dropped the ball with us. The DJ is one of the most important parts of a wedding and Ken never returned my emails and became the most stressful part of my wedding planning. I loved every aspect of the wedding planning experience except for working with DJ Ken. In the end I had to cancel with DJ Ken and hired a band instead because I was so stressed out about not getting any responses and honestly had no idea of Ken would even show up on my wedding day. Hopefully he has picked up his game since but his ratings were completely inaccurate with the service I received and I felt that it was important to warn brides that this may be an issue. read more

WE LOVE KEN! YOU NEED HIM AT YOUR WEDDING. My husband and I got married this past June at San Francisco City Hall in the rotunda and Ken totally "turnt up" our wedding. Our guests actually kept saying, "Wow, the sound is so awesome!" I actually found DJ KenFused on Style Me Pretty about a year before our wedding date and he offers SUCH competitive pricing. What my husband and I love most is that he is honest, friendly but also professional. I emailed and called many other wedding DJs/companies in the Bay Area, but their price quotes were completely insane. These DJs/companies kept explaining to me that San Francisco City Hall was a complicated venue with weird acoustics, which was why everything would be expensive. After talking to Ken once on the phone, he assured me he would take care of it all (DJ, MC, audio, equipment etc.) and to not worry. Ken made the wedding planning process so easy and stress free! He was very responsive with my wedding coordinator and never missed an email. The sound quality during our ceremony and reception was perfect; no glitches whatsoever. The music selection for dinner was light and romantic and the dance floor was packed all night. Without a doubt, he definitely made our wedding one our guests will always remember! Thanks Ken! read more

Don't be thrown off by the name "Kenfused", he actually knows what he's doing. =b Being a DJ myself, I knew exactly what I was looking for our wedding. We wanted someone that could rock a crowd but could also rock the mic and keep our guests engaged. But most importantly, I wanted someone that was experienced with weddings. At one point during our ceremony, the officiant's wireless mic (which the officiant provided) started giving out. Ken, cool as a cat and ninja-like snuck up to the front of the ceremony and handed the officiant one of his mics. It was loud and clear and smooth sailing after that. This was a very subtle move by Ken, but to me, I recognized it as a move that only experienced DJs would have done. You'd be surprised how many weddings I've seen where the couple's vows were hampered by mic interference and the DJ didn't do anything about it. Ken's experience was also displayed in how he was perfectly setup and early for the ceremony, cocktail room, and reception (all in different rooms). Ken's experience comes from being part of the SF Bay Area's long-standing and rich DJ culture; one that I've idolized when I first started out with my first set of turntables. If you're looking for a DJ that CAN mix and rock a crowd, that CAN work a crowd with a mic, that KNOWS his music, and that is EXPERIENCED in weddings (not all club DJ's translate well to wedding DJs!) then Kens the man! read more

Ken was awesome as the DJ and MC for our wedding!! The music was great, everyone was dancing and having fun all night. Ken was professional, friendly, fun, and calm. He even helped out other vendors who were having technical difficulty to make sure everything went smoothly. Thank you Ken for helping our big day go so well and making it such a fun day to look back on! read more

DJ KenFused WAS AMAZING! Ken did my Totally 80's Prom and captured the era perfectly. I wanted a party where everyone danced the night away. And that is what he delivered, my favorite part was hearing people say they needed to use the restroom, but were afraid they would miss the next song! Ken was very easy to work with and kept up communication after booking, showed up on time and hosted a great party. I would recommend him to anyone hosting any event. Can't wait to host our next party and you better believe KEN will be in attendance!!! read more

Benicia, eh? Man, it took me a LONG time to find his yelp page, but finally I succeeded! Basically, Ken is awesome. Really awesome. So awesome that I'm trying to figure out events where I can hire him again to DJ. Is it too much to DJ at a baby shower? hm. Anyways, now. I'm. gonna. blow. you. away. First of all, a friend of mine got married on June 21st, 2008. It was about one year before my wedding and I was overwhelmed with who to choose as a DJ. When I asked her for any recommendations, she immediately said "You HAVE to hire DJ Ken Anolin. He is SO FUNNY. He is SO GOOD". I'll never forget that she had these huge eyes and big smile when she said this to me. I was sold right there. See, the thing is. I'm a picky person. Like, very picky perfectionist failure-is-not-an-option kind of person. And being that, it was going to be my wedding. Oh man. Had to be perfect. My wedding was Oct. 3, 2009. Anyways, from beginning to end, Ken is professional, responsible, hilarious and SO creative (with song choice). I mean, this is the kind of person you want in every type of business. My husband was instantly sold when Ken suggested to play a particular sports "theme song" for the garter toss. Its a very manly melody, but I don't want to say (because of Ken's competitors might be reading this). After Ken's suggestion, my husband calls me later and says "we HAVE to book him. He made such a great suggestion for the garter toss song". Ken answered all my emails so quickly. He answered all my neurotic questions. He reassured me that everything was going to be fine. He was so patient in waiting for my exceptionally long list of songs (hey man, my husband is even pickier with songs than I am!). He also arrived 2+ hours before the dinner reception time and finished set up quickly. I was so happy to see him planning everything ahead. He already had music playing while guests started to arrive. He followed my dinner reception itinerary, which gave the estimated time of when to announce which event. Of course, he has the laptop-to-system hookup for the slideshow music. If you need a host/emcee, look no further. Ken is a very funny and engaging emcee. You can tell that he enjoys being a DJ. Everyone had such a great time. Lets just say that the music got our guests pumped up SO much that my photographer was able to catch many upon many amusing photos of our wedding guests tearing up the dance floor. Thats how good Ken is. Where your photographer can get those "blackmail" hilarious photos because that one usually quiet groomsmen decides to freak all the ladies on the dance floor. Thanks Ken. Thats all you, man. Well, maybe a little champagne was involved too. lol. Can you believe it? A wedding vendor completely free of any stress! Believe me, during the wedding planning, Ken made things so much easier for me because he is SO responsible and professional. And you know what. I'm not even finished! Guess what? I referred him to my other friend for her wedding and she booked him too! Her wedding (June 2009) was a complicated one because it was at Villa Montalvo. If you've ever been to a wedding there, you'll soon find out the complicated nature of multiple rooms that all need music. Somehow, Ken was able to organize a network of linked multiple speakers in multiple rooms, all playing music simultaneously. And these multiple rooms have tons of stairs and other obstacles in between the ceremony's garden area, the appetizer fountain area and the dinner reception patio area. Thats really going above and beyond. Ken is a genius and it still amazes me how he was able to handle that wedding. And this friend is the type of friend who would complain if she was unhappy. She didn't complain. She was very pleased. So there you go. 3 weddings done by Ken. All well done. 3 happy brides. Thanks Ken! You're a lifesaver. read more

Ken was very fun, easy to work with, and on top of everything. He got the details of our wedding right and made an awesome mix that kept everyone dancing. read more

Kenfused DJed at our wedding, and he was exactly what we were looking for in a DJ. He was professional in addition to being a great emcee, and was able to accommodate our last-minute requests and changes to the schedule. He was also a very skilled and experienced DJ, using actual turntables which is becoming less common with newer DJs. Everyone loved the music he played, and he took requests as well. I'd recommend him to anyone I know who's getting married or needed a DJ for any other reason. read more

Ken did our wedding in August 2011. I absolutely love his energy. He came highly recommended from my Aunt after he did their company Christmas party in the city. When I met him over the phone, I was sold after the first two statements he made: 1. He told me this is your party...I am here to cater to you and your guests so whatever you want to hear I will play it. (he came through on this :)) 2. I happen to be a huge Disney freak and I wanted to have Disney music played at my wedding...Ken told me, let me look at my wife's CDs...I think she has that song. :) I can never thank Ken enough for the great work he did at my wedding. He MC'ed the entire event and was able to keep us on track with time. During the planning process he came out to meet us and make sure he had all the details. During our introductions I wanted a song played from the show Fantasmic in Disneyland....which the only audio I could find was on YouTube. Not only was Ken able to play this and introduce our party, he looped and edit the song because our bridal party was so big and I wanted to come out at a certain part....he made it happen. I also had a laundry list of Latin music we wanted to play and he accepted this with open arms. He knew how to play to all age groups and get everyone on the dance floor. When it came to song choices for the bouquet toss and garter toss we didn't want the same music everyone else plays (Single Ladies - Beyonce) so Ken hooked us up with something different. This is what I enjoyed about working with him...we were able to collaborate together and he provided his expertise on what works and what does not. For the most part, anything I wanted he would make it happen. I never had to worry about Ken, by the time I got to the reception his equipment was already set up and playing for the crowd. The only thing I was disappointed about was that we couldn't make the night longer because we had so much fun dancing. If you are looking for a DJ, better yet, if you are looking for someone who will "Make it Happen" and exceed your expectations then call Ken. :) read more

KEN IS AMAZING! He dj'd my sisters wedding and mine. He always knows how to feel the crowd out! He definitely had the entire dance floor filled up! Thank you Ken! Always a pleasure to work with you and see you! read more

Ken did an amazing job at our wedding. He played almost every song in our long list of requests. He was very personable to our guests and made it an absolutely fun and memorable night! He spun the old school and new music which was the vibe we were going for at our reception along with the mix of music genres! We highly recommend DJ Ken based on our experience!!! read more

For our wedding reception DJ KenFused kept our guests into it! The crowd loved him! He played everything from salsa to oldies. During the business aspect DJ Ken is very professional and reliable. Definitely one of the best in the business. read more

Kenfused is the best. He was able to get all the songs we requested from him and was not offended when we asked him to be our human jukebox for the cocktail hour and dinner part of our wedding. When it came to the dancing portion we trusted him to do his thing and told him to keep the dance floor packed, and he came through huge. We can't thank him enough for his services. Our site was a very demanding outdoor venue and Ken made sure everything went off without a hitch. He is the man and very professional, would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thanks so much Ken for helping make our wedding day the one we imagined. read more

We're so fortunate to have found Ken. We ended up booking in him about two weeks prior to our wedding and it was perhaps the best decision we could have made. In hindsight, I couldn't imagine not having him there. He ended up providing music and sound at both the ceremony and the reception, which were at 2 separate locations in Sonoma. Both young and old alike loved him, as he played both hits and classics in that perfect intertwined way that only a seasoned DJ can do. He's the consummate professional and artist. read more

DJ KenFused recently did our Sons Bar Mitzvah and he was amazing!!!! He got ALL the young people dancing and a lot of the adults. Everybody had a fantastic time and is still talking about it. He was super friendly and professional throughout the whole process. I would recommend him without hesitation, with DJ KenFused you will not have to worry about getting the party started and keep it going. read more

Meets the ideals of professionalism on every level. We hired him for my daughters baptism and first birthday. Not only is he very kind, but approachable. I was running up to him the entire event saying "can you play this song?!?" He didn't mind one bit considering I'm sure he had a playlist set. Also, he helped create some fun games for the kids including "a floss dance competition." We left the music selection for dinner to his discretion- glad we did bc he had the PERFECT mix of songs. We really enjoyed having him at our event and it was almost like having a family member DJ for us! He was super personable and fun! I wouldn't hesitate one second to hire him again! Very, very impressed!! Also, be sure to check out his son who also spins- he has some great talent! Unfortunately, he came down with a bad fever so he wasn't able to make it! Guess we will just have to have them back for another party! Thanks DJ KEN!!!!!!!! read more
