DJ for your corporate event

At a company party you have a crowd that's hard to pin down: interns next to the board, and everyone with a different taste. That's exactly why a standard set doesn't work here. I read the room and switch gears — that's where my festival experience and hundreds of private parties come together.

In practice I often start gently, during or just after dinner, with music that carries the atmosphere without drowning out conversations. As soon as the first group starts moving, I build it up. By the end of the night the floor is full of people who'll still be talking about it on Monday.

Beforehand I agree with the organisers on how the night will run: when the speeches are, whether there's an award ceremony, and what definitely shouldn't be played. A microphone for a toast or a few words is always part of my set-up.

Looking for more than a DJ? I've been organising events for over ten years and can arrange lighting and sound, a DJ booth, live acts such as a saxophonist or violinist, table magic, a photo booth, and photography and video. That way you only deal with one party.
