Club-standard DJ equipment and downloaded audio files - absolutely no streaming or bootleg downloads
Lighting for dance floors and spaces meant to brighten and add color to blank canvas rooms, or for venues and event spaces with charm and character
Functionality and mobility - customizing audio and lighting for any environment, and years of experience in mobile audio and lighting applications

Absolutely! We can help facilitate taking requests from your guests and requests based on your insights in advance and we also come prepared with intergenerational and cross-cultural music selections and sets.
We read the room and interact in both our stage presence and artistic passion to be inclusive. We are LGBTQ+ Friendly, we encourage disability inclusion, and we uplift diversity, equity and inclusion in the music and services we provide.

We will always follow the lead of our clients and we typically encourage our clients to provide 15-20 “Must-Plays” to help inspire our sets and set the tone of the event.
We stay away from more controversial or divisive music and artists, but if you have specific songs you are just tired of hearing or would like to avoid for your own reasons, we will make sure that they are not included in our sets.
-
We love crowd participation and engagement and requests are a great way to react to the crowd in real-time. We do, however, take your vision and music tastes into consideration and can filter out or prioritize requests based on that.
Ask about ways we can get requests in advance to help with the music request process!

Required deposit is usually 20% of the total cost of the services provided, which is due upon signing of the contract. The remaining balance is due the day of your event.
We also have the ability to set up custom autopay plans for the clients who prefer to pay gradually over time instead of all at once.
