Describe your DJ style:
Latin American biligual music. Classic oldies in Spanish or English all the way to today's top 40's. DJ and MCs fluent in English and Spanish.
Is there a limit to the amount of music that can be requested?
No but you may want to consider a few "must play" since most receptions are 4 to 5 hours.
What is your usual attire?
Tuxedo, suit or as client wishes. Never, jeans and sneakers.
If you do not have one of the songs pre-requested by the client, do you require that they provide it?
No. We make every effort to have the music the client requests. We require a meeting 1 month prior to the event to make sure that the music will be there the day of the event.
How many other DJs do you work with?
I work with 2 to 3 other DJ's. Most of the time they are looking for me to MC since they are not biligual. However, I network with as many local DJs as possible and also belong to the American DJ Association in case of an emergency.
What is the minimum amount of time you will DJ for?
The minimum for any reception should be 4 hours.
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?
Yes. We would have at least 2 meeting prior to the event.
Do you specialize in any ethnic or international events?
None currently.
Can the client submit a do-not-play list?
Absolutely.
Do you bring your own equipment?
Yes. Only Professional DJ equipment.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
Laser, smoke, lighting, photo montage, plasmas.
How much time do you usually need to set up? Do you require that the site or client provide a table for you to set up on?
A minimum an hour is the norm.
Do you have any extra space requirements?
Depends on the amount of service the client has chosen
Do you have a sign or banner that you use at events?
Only if the client wants to go with a "personalized" gobo.
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
I interact as much or as little as the client request. No more, no less. Tasteful and not overbearing.
How would you motivate the crowd if no one is dancing?
We can start with an annyversary dance perhaps and take it from there.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
No. Although appreciated, its not mandatory. Please understand that we leave 3 to 4 hours before the event start time.
Will you arrange for recorded music to play during your breaks?
If you do provide a meal, you will have continous music thoughout the event except when the toast or special dedication is going on.
What is your backup plan in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
First is to contact my DJ for Yes but has been my mission to be there at every function. My track record is 1 absentee due to an operation.
What is your overtime rate?
