He was incredibly helpful and was eager to lend a hand or make sure that our day went accordingly, and there were no mishaps whatsoever! He listened to our needs and his creativeness helped bring life to our special day. There were mixes I thought I'd never hear in my life that just worked and he made great memories for us to remember. His partner, Michelle, brought a pop-up photo booth that allowed us to take photos, gifs, videos, and have the ability to customize it to our desires, and receive photos on the instant! The quality you receive when you hire these two is always a guarantee. This dynamic duo did a wonderful job and we are SO happy they were a part of our roster. Thank you DJ Sugar! I highly recommend your services!

Sugar was hired to DJ our wedding and be our wedding coordinator! While being both seems like tough…read morerolls to fill, he and Michelle were consistent, accurate and made our day flow beautifully! Not only did they help with communications with other vendors, but helped with decor and set up, while also answering any questions guests or vendors had with accuracy ensuring the venue looked and felt exactly how me and my husband planned! Sugar was also a KING for the dance floor, we had guests dancing with us until the very last song and seriously kept the vibes going! His pricing is totally fair for the amount of work that him and his partner put in, I can't recommend Sugar and Michelle enough!! :)

The entire experience put us in the place to do this creative work. We needed to track (Zach's also mixing, but that happens later) and had 5 days to get it done.

Their prices are very reasonable and they really went above and beyond the call of duty to help us with our event. I've had some trouble with both Hollywood Lights and Picture This in the past (My impression was that since I wasn't a big company spending a lot of money, I didn't matter much to their staff. Maybe others have had a better experience). Rose City Sound made me feel like I mattered and I would definitely do business with them again.

Every single person we dealt with - Eric, Ami and Stephen - were exceptionally positive, helpful and calm. Our event prep was disrupted by a snow storm and they flexed and supported us so we could focus on all the other things needing attention due to weather. They were a true joy to work with and their prices were exceptional compared to everyone else we spoke with. I will not only use them again and recommend them to others, but I made sure to get their cards to share with the manager of the venue we used. They were that good. Next level.

His great skill doesn't come cheap - about USD $75-$100/hour, less for a full session I'm sure. If you've got the money and time, he's worth every penny. Even if you're a "home studio whiz", it's worth the couple $100's to have Ryan master your CD before release - he is without a doubt the best mastering engineer on the west coast (think: Portland's Bob Ludwig.) Again, not cheap, but you get more than what you pay for, and it's relaxed, fun and friendly. Recommended!

KQAC is a broadcast station, FM in the area, and streaming. They are classical music…read more So Yelpers may ask, what is the purpose of KQAC All Classical today and what is the place of classical music today? Streaming is curated by AI/the algorithm. All Classical has shows curated by people, such as The Score. The Score - https://www.thescore.org/ - is about movie scores and the creator has special unique access to the composers. To relevance, babies and young children exposed to music are shown to have strong mathematical ability later. I visited their new studios downtown in the KOIN tower for a free Thursday afternoon guest musician live broadcast. They built a small concert hall. Thursday free concerts, register online in advance, have live musicians and an announcer introducing and narrating. The concerts are on-line for a listen for 2 weeks. I heard a piano concert, the player, described as "performer of near-superhuman technical prowess" by the NY times, knew a good friend whose father was a composer. In the same show, Storm Large, again friends of friends, sang some classical music, with a good back and forth with the announcer. The crowd ran older, as the schedule was mid-afternoon, but it would be a good day date and for elementary students on up who are interested in classical music and the particular show. That concert hall has a large LED 16 by 9 foot screen and holds 100 seated. It can be rented for concerts, recordings, dance performances, dinners, parties, workshops, conferences, and more. They have a full catering kitchen. They have a series of projects to stay relevant such as a young musician fellowship, working with local composers, and their International Children's Arts Network. They have a live camera from their old location showing the Willamette River - https://www.allclassical.org/tili-cam/ - with their music stream. And they have a good classical music calendar https://www.allclassical.org/events/ All Classical is available 24x7, has some unique programs, a gem of studios, is a gateway to the network of classical music in the region, and has weekly free concerts!

It's great to have a station dedicated entirely and exclusively to classical music. The hosts are…read morevery good--pleasant and entertaining to listen to. The biggest problem with the station, at least in the listener's opinion, is that the playlist is dominated by big, gushy, booming 19th-century symphonies. How many people actually enjoy them? To be sure, "symphonies" are for many the pinnacle of classical music. But I dare say that for many, and perhaps for most, symphonies are often predictable and uninteresting. When I turn on KQAC, I'd say at least 7 times out of 10, I turn it right back off b/c of yet another oceanic storm of sound being blasted over the airwaves. Solo pieces, chamber music, early choral music, or contemporary pieces should form a much larger part of the playlist.
