Sarah Sloboda Photography	David Swirsky of Expressway Music is extremely passionate about music, and his whole-hearted love for his work is evident both in his style, and the special treatment his clients receive. I worked with David at a wedding on Shelter Island, and it was one of the most festive, fun-filled events I photographed that entire year. I know this was hugely due to David's awesome music selection, which had absolutely everybody on the dance floor. My client confided in me afterward about how much she loved working with David, and I agreed he had been an excellent choice! In subsequent meetings, I have found him personable, professional, and extremely passionate about his work. I strongly endorse him and Expressway Music!
Lily Kesselman Photography	I really enjoyed working with Expressway - they have a nice style and don't take over the entire event. His music selections really had the party going and it was a great mix. I've recommended them to clients in NYC.
Exquisite Affairs Productions Inc.	David Swirsky and his team at Expressway provide quality through and through. Their impeccable musicality combined with their desire to make every single client happy is what sets them apart from those "other" DJ companies. There are certainly brides out there that cannot afford to have a band and fear those "cheesy" DJs and anytime I've presented Expressway to them, they book on the spot. Expressway provides a classic/elegant and mature alternative without hurting your pocket. The best part: they really know how to get a crowd on the dance floor, keep them there, and making them beg for more! I personally enjoy working with them from beginning to start and know that I am always guaranteed to be tapping my foot, bouncing on heels, and shaking my head to their beats.

When interviewing dj's ask why they got involved in dj'ing in the first place and particularly wedding dj'ing.
Also ask them what skills they have that make them good at what they do and how their skills differ from other dj's.
The answers should be more illuminating then any demo video or reference would be.

Many ask us the difference between a wedding dj and a club dj. While both our technically dj's they are in two diverse industries and require two completely different skill sets. Club dj's usually don' t have as much interaction with guests as wedding dj's. The club dj is typically in an isolated booth removed from the guests. A club dj also usually plays a much narrower music list  that is designed for a very specific age range/clientele(i.e 22 to 26 ) then a wedding dj who plays music for all ages and ethnicities. The songs a club dj plays usually last  7 minutes or more each while a wedding dj is typically playing songs from 2 to 4 minutes and a variety of styles with a lot of stops and starts inbetween in a shorter span of time.

Be wary of dj's that offer various "packages"(Meaning a predetermined price for each service that is presented in a condensed "package" that will often not reflect what will work best for your party). Often the music these dj's play will also have a "canned" or "packaged" feel to it. Meaning that they will often play the same songs for your party that they do at every other party neglecting the uniqueness of your particular party(guests, venue, your tastes etc).
