We hired ASE DJ to run sound for a birthday party that we were performing…read more Prior to the event I specified through email several times that the group would need 3 cordless microphones to perform. This was a big deal because each member sings and choreography is also involved in our show. He reassured me that he would have 3 cordless microphones along with the other necessary equipment for the show. He also provided a form for me to check off on the items needed and I certainly checked the 3 cordless mics along with the other items needed. When we arrived for our agreed soundcheck time, Tim was nowhere to be found until about 20 minutes later. He then hands me only 2 microphones! When I reminded him we needed another mic he looked surprised as if he forgot. He said he would go and get it BUT in the same breath asked about receiving payment! Sound check went ok with the 2 microphones we had but when the show started one of the microphones wasn't working and when I looked behind us to get Tim's attention, he was not at his post! In fact he was off chatting with someone at the party. In a panic I had to leave the stage area to get his attention about the microphone not working. He checks it and then argues that it was working when it clearly had no sound coming out of it! He then raised the volume on the dead mic but it still wasn't producing enough sound. So we had to keep swapping microphones during our performance. It was very stressful. As a sound person, your main job is to make sure the SOUND is up to par and that obviously wasn't Tim's concern. Overall his demeanor was cavalier and he didn't seem to care at all about what we needed from him. To top it off he was paid generously for the job he didn't do so well. I have never experienced such unprofessionalism from a sound person/DJ in all my life!

We hired a Special Event DJ for our wedding this July, and it was worth every penny. This is a…read morewell-run business. They fit you with a DJ that will work best for your wedding and your vibe. Communication was great. Tim, the owner, answered all of my questions (there was a lot, he actually complimented me on them) in the beginning, and was very professional. Their online portal is a little confusing and I would have preferred to get the forms and download them and fill them out that way, but I found out a little too late. Anyway, they did sound for both our ceremony and reception. Huge shout out and props to CODY, our DJ, who I would recommend to ANYONE and EVERYONE! I swear he was more than a DJ - it felt like he was our night of event coordinator and thank God because my ADHD brain was NOT going to get anything done in the moment (too happy? Too much wine...). Cody was really fantastic. I didn't know we needed a pre-party phone call because I'm pretty laid back, but it ended up being such a great choice! We got to know Cody (who you'll just want to be friends with after your wedding), but he also got some things cleared up and made sure he knew what songs to play when, how to say our weird family names, and what kind of vibe we were going for. Night of - I underestimated some of our guests. I thought it was going to be very low key, but thankfully Cody and a few of our more extroverted friends got people on the dance floor. Thanks Cody, for not making too much fun of us slow dancing the chicken dance to "Groovy Kind of Love." It's a New Girl reference. We're obnoxious super-fans.... Not the kind that has t-shirts and wall decor, but who just spends half the day speaking to one another in New Girl quotes. Anyway, I could go on and on, but in short - hire them for your wedding.
