Joel Lopez (Aka Dj Big J) Born on November 6 in San Juan P.R. and raise in Toa Baja, Levittown. At the age of 5 he started having an interest in music by learning how to play the piano only by ear. Having no music knowledge what so ever he grabs a guitar and continued his interests in music. His parents notice his skills and place him with a music instructor. He learns a lot about the essence of music and continued his journey in other aspects of it. At the age of 13 he was offered a spot in a school band playing the trumpet, trombone, tuba & drums. At age of 18 he was more interested in being a radio announcer. He worked, as a “freelance” in a few of them but music, was in his blood and he start “djing”. Making a fusion between “Mcing” & "Djing” he got a lot of respect in the Night Clubs industry playing in clubs and pub’s like: St Mick’s, Area 51, Island Jamaica, Club Babylon, Shannon’s Pub to name a few.

Best dj in puerto rico!

Best DJ in Puerto Rico HANDS DOWN! Our wedding was a mix of English and Spanish music from Hip Hop, Freestyle, R&B, Reggaeton, Salsa, Merengue, Bachata, etc. His ability to engage a crowd was phenomenal. We had the time of our lives at the wedding. It truly felt like a movie! There wasn't a dull moment at all. Everyone danced all night and had the time of their lives. Even my aunt who doesn't dance couldn't get off that dance floor lol Hiring Big J Music Services is an experience you don't want to miss. It was a pleasure to work with him. He was welcoming and professional. His music execution was FLAWLESS!!! He has a variety of options for prices as well. If you are searching for an elite DJ, look no further! Thank you for making our dream wedding come true! -Elaine and Eric DeJesus

Only Big J could turn our wedding dancefloor into the most epic rave of our lives!


As a wedding photographer, I have worked with Big J in the wedding space for years. His work ethic, incredible personality, and contagious energy made me grow in immense respect for him and made us fast friends. No matter how dull the situation looks on a wedding day, I can count on him to know how to turn a party on once his moment starts. He has incredible talent, a broad musical range and knowledge, a precise way to gauge crowds, and a charismatic personality. 

He’s the best team player, so when I got engaged, I had NO DOUBT he would handle all things sound and lighting on our wedding day. I did not give my fiancé a choice, literally. Like us, our diverse crowd loves many kinds of music, Latin romantics, perreadores, audiophiles, and EDM ravers. Joel has a very high-tech process where you’ll be able to share your musical taste and preferred selections from your Spotify or YouTube into his mobile app, which he’ll then use to create the perfect mix for your wedding night.

As our wedding day approached, we decided to add other musicians and entertainment aspects. Joel seamlessly integrated these different sets into the overall schedule. He also showed his flexibility when we threw him a big curveball the week of the wedding. One of my best friends, a studio DJ, asked if he could play a surprise mix for us. Joel was more than happy to incorporate it into his set, showing his adaptability and making many people happy. I was worried a pre-made mix would water down the energy, but Joel knew precisely how and when to blend it for a perfect experience.

Most people have this cheesy, preconceived idea of a wedding DJ, and knowing Joel for so many years, I was ready to defeat everybody’s expectations. I knew Big J wouldn’t disappoint, but I WAS NOT PREPARED for the epic rave he turned my dancefloor into. To this date, vendors and guests are still commenting on how they would never get over our wedding night. I’m pretty sure Joel ruined weddings for many people forever.

Do yourself a favor and book him now. His schedule is packed, and you will regret not having the best DJ in Puerto Rico on your wedding night.

Joel, I have told you this in person already, but we’re eternally grateful for the most epic night ever, perfectly tailored for us. Banger after banger! 

xo,
Cami & JC
