Can we come and hear you play?

Corporate events are private affairs so we cannot extend an invitation to potential clients, but you are very welcome to come and hear us play at any of our regular club gigs. While it is definitely not the same environment and playlist that you’d experience at a wedding or corporate event, you can still get a good sense of our DJ skills and the diversity of music we always play. Indeed, we have worked with lots of clients who have told us they knew we the right DJs for their event after coming to a club or other gig open to the public.

Do you provide lighting?

Yes, we do provide programmable LED uplighting. Full details available here.

What kind of music can you play?

We have a deep catalog of music—encompassing soul, jazz, R&B, hip-hop, disco, electronica, rock, Latin, funk, pop, international, and more. From 40s swing to the latest chart hits, we will work with you to custom-craft a playlist that will please your guests.

Can you fulfill MC duties?

Absolutely, yes. From introductions to last call, and all announcements in-between, we can guide the flow of the evening with as much enthusiasm or restraint as you require. That said, we are most definitely not mic-rocking non-DJs, encouraging your guests to get up and do the macarena. We’ll keep it simple and clear, and not embarrass ourselves or you.

Do you have backup DJ(s) just in case?

Yes, we do. When a DJ is booked for your event, a substitute DJ is also booked. The substitute has access to the same playlist and schedule from the beginning, so in case of emergency, the sub is fully aware of the event details (documentation, playlist, and schedule), and isn’t simply coming in cold. Meaning there will always be a DJ fully prepared and ready to go if your assigned cannot perform at your event. We do not leave our clients high and dry.

How are you attired for events?

For corporate events we are dressed appropriately in tailored suits and ties. For black tie events, we can dress more formally by request. Our wardrobes are as diverse and stylish as our DJ sets.

Can you furnish references?

Yes, [with their permission] we can provide the contact information of recent clients who will be glad to share the details of their experience with you.

Why should I choose DJ D-Mac & Associates for my corporate event?

DJ D-Mac & Associates are much more than a DJ crew. We offer full audio support for your event, from a small panel discussion to full-scale audio production for a corporate gala. Rest assured, we can get it done. And because we’re there for the duration of the event (DJs, audio engineers, lighting technicians), you’ll get the personal attention to detail you deserve. We want to make you look and sound amazing.
