I have been DJ'ing since 1983 and have DJ'd about 700 receptions since then.
My DJ'ing actually started by playing drums in The Tony Martin Orchestra and when the Orchestra wasn't working, I would DJ for Tony Martin's South Dade Music. I have been a professional DJ ever since and have DJ'd hundreds and hundreds of engagements. I've emcee'd every engagement as well.
My specialty is Wedding Receptions but I also have DJ'd countless Birthday Parties, School functions, Church events, Corporate parties, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Anniversaries, and Conventions to name a few. I have also worked in clubs, lounges and bars. I have worked in almost every imaginable situation including a private party at a nudist colony and a Political fund-raiser where Astronaut John Glenn was in attendance.
I personally DJ all engagements ( I do all emceeing as well) along with my wife Rachel. Also, being a former touring musician I understand sound and its relationship with sound equipment. Our JBL sound system and great light show will accommodate anywhere from 50 to 3000 guests. I have enough music to play songs continuously for over three years without repeating a song!
