Joe was definitely a big highlight from our wedding back in October! To this day, we get a lot of compliments of how great the songs were, how smooth it was, and our guests were on the dance floor all night long. read more

BEST. DJ. EVER. Do not hesitate to book Joe, he truly is incredible! He takes the time to get to know you as a couple and your vision for the wedding. He absolutely nailed every aspect and we had the best day ever. We got so many compliments from guests about how fantastic our DJ was and how it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. The dance floor never slowed down. Joe made our Bay Area wedding dreams come true! read more

We knew that the DJ was one of the most important components of our wedding since we wanted to throw a party for our friends and family. We decided to work with Joe after meeting with him and learning about his various experiences as a DJ and his knowledge about setting the stage and throwing the perfect party for important events. Everything from the wedding ceremony to the cocktail hour to the party that went past midnight, we were so happy we chose to work with Joe. We met with Joe several times to discuss our music choices and genres and trusted him to work off our preferred choices - and we were beyond pleased with the results! Our party was a mix of EDM, hip hop / rap and dance songs. We also had very good vibes during cocktail/hour and dinner. Joe is very organized and you can definitely count on him to come through at your wedding! read more

Joe was our DJ for our wedding last month and he crushed it! We had multiple meetings prior that really made us feel like he put in the effort to understand what kind of vibes we were wanting for the dance floor. Everything was perfect! read more

Joe & Jay did an awesome job, definitely took our wedding to the next level! :) We've been to other weddings where NLE was the entertainment and we were already impressed before booking them. It was very easy to communicate with Joe thru text or phone calls. It made it more personal texting or talking with him directly. When we first talked with Joe, we had no idea what we wanted but Joe was able to give us ideas on what we should decide on and expect. Through more texts and calls, we decided on what we wanted or had ideas on what we wanted. We appreciated meeting with Joe to discuss our vision and the details of their services. He took time to get to know us and thought of ways to tie it in to our program which we loved. We booked their signature package which included the DJ & MC services, venue up-lighting in wedding colors, dancing in the clouds and a monogram. We really enjoyed our Love Story Presentation and the Interactive Games. Our guests were really in to it and had a lot of fun. We highly recommend booking Next Level Entertainment! read more

Came across Joe's event thru a Facebook live event and just clicked to see what it was all about. The first song got my booty up off the couch and I just started dancing the night away. My hubby was like what's gotten in to you and I was like babe these are my james! Mixes were odd the chart! I can't wait to jam with him again next weekend! #IpartiedwithJoeCortez! Had an awesome time! Mahalo! read more

Where do I start with these guys? I am still in complete utter shock (jaw dropping) at how A-frickin-MAZING Next Level Entertainment were at my wedding. Many of my guests have been constantly complimenting how fun the entertainment was. It kept them on their toes wanting more. The first time I seen Joe & Jay was at a friend's wedding (I wasn't engaged at that time), and I already knew I wanted both of them if I were to get married. When that time came, I called Joe right away to book him. At our first meeting, I didn't know what I really wanted, but Joe came up with creative ideas. Then throughout the planning, he was always encouraging to do fun/unique things. He was also not difficult to get in contact with when you needed help with something. What amazed me the most was not only had he worked with the bride and the groom, he also worked with both of my matron & maid of honors, without us knowing, with their music speech. It was such a surprise! I also loved how Jay told our love story, too! It was more than we expected. SO PERFECT! Overall, you tell them what you want, and they will go beyond your expectations. I don't know how these guys do it! They are hands down the best of the best! read more

I've known Joe for decades and he surpasses everyone's expectations each and everytime he does an event. Joe has evolved tremendously throughout the years, earning every award and all accolades. He's an extremely humble individual that has worked tirelessly to get to where he is. He knows what he's doing. If you need an awesome DJ that knows not only music, but people, you need to contact Joe, most definitely! read more

My husband and I got married 3 weeks ago and our guests are still raving about how awesome our program and emcee was. Joe definitely took our wedding to the next level! We booked with Joe not knowing what to expect -- we didn't know exactly what/how we wanted our reception to be like but he was able to guide us through the entire way. Joe was easy to communicate with via phone calls and texts, aside from our monthly, in-person meetings. Our wedding was personalized from start to finish and we loved every minute of it -- especially the interactive games. Joe, thank you so much for everything. Emerson and I can't thank you enough for making our wedding day amazing. We are blessed to have had you and would not recommend anyone else! If you are looking for entertainment, look no further. Next Level is so worth it & Joe and his team makes everything so easy. Thank you! read more

Joe Cortez is the best! Been enjoying his Live DJing on social media and so thankful to have come across it. He mixes the 80's and 90's like no other and is super interactive. Hoping to hire him for an Oahu event! read more

Saw his live piece on facebook after being tagged by a friend during this COVID situation. Wish I could see this guy live in action...maybe one day. I'm sure with the live experience, real-time sound, lighting and ambiance I'd gave a more accurate review so this it's just based on my online experience on an android device. Anyhow, three stars for now until that "live" experience comes around. His jamz made feel like I was having a few drinks at the clubs. Nostalgic for sure. Thanks for the show. Will update this review when the "live" opportunity comes around. read more

Love all the jams he plays..My kind of music!!! Yeah Baby!

Maui DJ Joe Cortez knows his stuff! I've been following his virtual parties weekly on Facebook during this crazy time of quarantine and he sure knows how to keep the party going! From Thursday 80s Ladies Nights to Old School, Disco or Freestyle Fridays and Saturdays... he plays all the best jams and keeps the right vibes flowing smoothly from one song to the next, something not a lot of DJs do well. Sometimes a DJ will play a random song, kill the vibe and clear the dance floor... Not Joe. Joe is also friendly, funny, welcoming, and just entertaining. Never a dull moment. I highly recommend Next Level Entertainment for any event. You'd be in good hands with Joe Cortez. read more

Always a fun time with DJ Joe Cortez as he plays all the favorite jams that we can listen, sing along and dance to! I live in CA and my friend shared one of his FB live shows while we stay at home during this global pandemic. DJ Joe has a very likeable on-air personality and engages the audience so that a good time is had by all! I look forward to the weekends (Thu, Fri & Sat) to watch DJ Joe Cortez on FB Live. He puts a smile on my face during this crazy time we live in right now. read more

Just happened upon this guy on Facebook playing some awesome jams. Love the music and mixes and all around vibe. Also love his voice!

Saw n met joe/jay (nle808) thru a friend's wedding for the first time n was impressed with their performance and how they handled the party. Looked at reviews and search more about them n got even more impressed. Booked for my son's 1st birthday and they definitely delivered as what they advertised! Sit back relax and they'll do the work for you! They are flexible with any changes before and during the party. Easy to communicate via text/call or their system called honeybook. Saw them via wedding party and used them for my son's 1st birthday party. I would highly recommend to others and definitely used them again! read more

Joe Cortez and Next Level Entertainment have been our family's go-to resource for all of our special events from the dozens of weddings (we have a big ohana!) and special birthday lu'au's to our kids grad parties and more.

Their pricing is fair, their crew is nothing but professional, and they treat their craft like it's a passion - not just a job. Most recently, Joe has been hosting nearly nightly online FB mix sessions and bringing some much needed entertainment and encouragement to thousands of folks around the world through music.

DJ Joe Cortez has add life to our day-to-day routine during this time of shelter in place. Being in quarantine is not so bad, especially when we have DJ Joe playing through our speakers at home. We sometimes turn it into a family event, because my little ones also love dancing to his music. DJ Joe is open to requests, plays the best mixes with the cleanest and smoothest transitions, and keeps his energy high from beginning to end! Before the pandemic, I was also able to attend a wedding and 1st birthday party, with sounds provided by DJ Joe and Next Level Entertainment. He kept everyone entertained the entire night and it was obvious that Joe really enjoyed it as much as the crowd did! I highly recommend DJ Joe Cortez and Next Level Entertainment for your next event! read more

I love this DJ!! He has added some good vibes and good feels to our weekends. My family and I will tune in while we're having dinner or driving in the car because we love the old skool era. Remembering so many good times and what club we were in when you hear Stevie B or Cover Girls. That era was the best. They just don't make music like that anymore. Thank you for bringing some old skool and ladies nights into our lives during these tough times. Music touches everyone and heals your soul. Take Care and keep safe everyone! read more

Joe was happening tonight! All the jams and mixes from back in the day. I threw down my bag, hooked him up to a Bluetooth speaker and had a awesome Friday night jam party at my house. Don't search any further. He's da one!!!! read more

Next Level Ent. Brought livelihood into a very dark time for my daughter and I. We live in a town with four stop ligts and not many wheelchair accessible activities. I have been using a wheelchair for 30 years and haven't set, "foot," in a club in any of these years. Joe Cortez has freely shared his gift of D.J.' ing during the COVID pademic via a virtual night club and through him I've been able to share my love of music and dancing to old school jams with my daughter. My daughter, who is nearly 6 years old has met a side of her Mommy she didnt know exists and she loves it. I've had a kind of fun that I had thought was gone forever. As I am married and not drinking anymore, why would I go to a club? Joe has been able to bring me back to place that I had thought was gone forever. In deepest gratitude. Susannah Rice-Kamanu read more

If you are planning a wedding or any type of party I HIGHLY recommend NEXT LEVEL ENTERTAINMENT 100%. You will not be disappointed by your decision on picking these guys.

But the meetings we had with Joe made us feel better as he would reassure us that the party will be a blast. Again THANK YOU GUYS from the bottom of our hearts. Aloha, Matt and Monette read more
