Professionalism and Attention to detail second to none!

       

         Frequently Asked Questions.....

Is setup time included in your price?

Yes. We typically arrive a little more than an hour prior to your scheduled start time and will be set up before your first guest arrives. You never have to pay for setup or takedown time.  It's on our own time.

Top

Do you take breaks?

Our services are uninterrupted and non-stop. From our scheduled start time to our scheduled end time we will never pause to take a break. Much unlike bands that need to stop and rest, we can just keep playing straight through your event.

Top

Can we choose the music to be played at our event?

Keeping the dance floor packed is influenced by many factors, including the order and style in which the songs are played, the way songs are mixed together, and DJ interaction, not just which songs are played.

We've had customers that have chosen every song for the entire event and others that have left the music selection completely up to us. Our recommendation is to provide us with a list of "must play" songs and list of "play if possible" songs. This will leave plenty of room for requests from your guests and DJ selections. You may also stipulate that we not take requests from your guests.

Top

Are the live vocal performances always include?

Yes. Male live vocals are included and are not an extra charge. A female vocalist is available upon request and would be an additional charge.

Should you choose not to have live vocals performed at your affair, we would be happy to accommodate your request.

Top

Can we have a "do not play" list?

 We understand that you don't want to hear the song you and your "ex" danced to. Or maybe you've been to one too many weddings lately and are sick of the typical wedding songs. Any specific songs or general types of music you absolutely hate should go on your "do not play" list. So don't feel as though we have to play the chicken dance and hokey pokey. Rest assured that if a guest requests a song that is on your "do not play" list, it will not be played.

Top

What if we want a song that you don't have?

While our 6,000 song music library encompasses the widest variety of hits from the 1940s to the current party top 40 list, it's likely you may have a few obscure requests that are not in our repertoire. In this case, we would be more than happy to play your CD. As you're making your request list, simply indicate which songs you'll be providing. You can bring your CDs to us at the start of the event and we'll promptly return them to you at the end.

How loud do you play the music?

One of the greatest complaints of bands and DJs alike is that they play the music too loud. It doesn't have to be that way. The speakers will be strategically positioned for even sound coverage throughout the banquet room at a comfortable level whether we're playing soft listening music for dinner/cocktails or dance music. This means that on the dance floor the music will be at a comfortable, yet powerful enough level for dancing. Throughout the rest of the room the music will be less predominant and your guests will be able to carry on a normal conversation without screaming.

Top

Do you hang any banners or other advertisements?

We will not hang any banners, logos, or signs on our equipment. Nor will we put any advertisements on the dinner tables. The extent of our "advertising" is a stack of business cards next to our equipment so guests can easily take a card.

Top

How interactive are your DJs?

Most parties call for a DJ with eloquent emcee skills. We're only as interactive as necessary for the coordination of events and to keep your guests having a good time on the dance floor. You'll never hear us yelling, screaming, or telling tasteless jokes.

We've built a proud reputation for being cooperative, polite and acting in an extreme professional manner.  Even at our most outgoing level, we still remain professional and never try to steal the spotlight.

 Top

How far will you travel?

We travel within a 75 miles radius of the Philadelphia Pa. area. 

Top

Are you insured?

We are both protected under our $2 million dollar liability insurance policy.

Top

Is tipping/gratuity expected from the DJ?

By no means is tipping/gratuity mandatory or expected. We charge a professional rate for a professional service. This means you won't see a tip jar on our table. If at the end of the night you feel the we have surpassed your expectations and you want to tip us, we would accept it as the utmost compliment. But you're under no obligation to do so.

Top

Should we feed the DJ?

The answer is that it is completely up to you. With setup and takedown time, we'll often be at your event for nearly 8 hours.  If you choose to provide meals it will be greatly appreciated.

But don't worry if you're working on a tight budget because there is no meal clause in our contract.

Top

What is the deposit and when is the final payment due?

We require a $100 deposit and signed contract to reserve your date. The final payment of the remaining balance is due at least 7 days (1 week) prior to your event date. We will gladly accept your personal check, certified check, cashier's check, or money order. You can also pay on the date of your event prior to the scheduled start time. We find that settling up before the date works best since it will give you the freedom to relax and enjoy your event.

Top

How early should we book?

Some of the most popular dates can and do book as early as one year in advance. Our suggestion is to be prepared to sign a contract as early as 6 to 10 months before. Some dates remain open until the month before. So if you're planning an event for next month, it's worth it to check our availability. If you're just starting your planning, try to make your final decision as soon as possible to ensure our availability.
