About

I own a Disc Jockey company. Officially, my job is to provide music and entertainment at special occasions. But really, I create personal relationships with my clients to ensure that they have a fun, memorable and unique wedding. I produce the best party of their lives.

When hiring DJ Mike On The Mic, you’re assured that I’ll always:

  • Work with you. (From your first call to the last song, I’ll be by your side.)
  • Be available by email or phone. (You’re not hiring an agency. I’ll personally be there for you. That’s important!)
  • Set-up prior to your guests’ arrival.
  • Wear the fitting attire, from a formal to a themed party.
  • Bring back up, professional sound equipment.
  • Tailor your party exactly as you envision it.
  • Have liability insurance.
  • Produce a stress-free affair by managing the party details.
  • Coordinate with you and your vendors to plan your ideal reception.
  • Allow you to create “must play” and “do not play” music request lists.
  • Add unexpected touches. (Why not make your party unforgettable?)
  • Create a fun party! (Isn't that why you hire a DJ?)


At 15, I started my professional DJ career. I couldn’t drive, but I could fill a dance floor! Now, 20 years later, I've had the opportunity to entertain at over 1,000 parties. As your DJ, I'll mix everyone’s favorite songs. As your MC, I'll interact with the guests, informing them of events and motivating them to dance. As your Event Coordinator, I'll work with other vendors to produce a high-quality, stress-free and smooth-flowing affair. From our initial meeting to finalizing the timeline, I’ll handle all of the entertainment details leaving you free to enjoy every moment of your special day. I have the best job. Whenever I go to work, I’m going to a party!

Reviews of DJ Mike On The Mic Michael Pachino

Best DJ - hire him!

We absolutely loved Mike for our wedding at The Gramercy Mansion in Baltimore. We first met with him at the venue, and he walked us through where he would set things up, addressed any concerns we had, and began taking notes on the vibes we wanted for our day. He texted afterwards to let us know we could send him playlists via Apple music or Spotify or send him full lists of songs we wanted. We had a meeting with him about a month out from the wedding and he walked us through every detail and brought up things we hadn’t even thought of yet. Then, when I started getting anxious about a week or two before the wedding, he hopped on ANOTHER meeting with us and went through ALL of the details again. He also offered very kind advice about the wedding day itself and was just a lovely, friendly presence to have on our day. He skillfully incorporated songs from our “dinner” playlist (for example) into our cocktail hour playlist when it seemed like the list we gave him wouldn’t be long enough. He took all of our requests and preferences into consideration and just made everything completely seamless. I even gave him a “look” during our first dance set that I was ready to invite people to dinner, and he just smoothly made that happen. I cannot recommend DJ Mike highly enough.

Easy and awesome

Mike was such a pleasure to deal with. From planning, to the actual event, he took charge and put our minds at ease, so we could simply enjoy the night. He coordinated with the other vendors and really helped the night seamless! Mike made sure everyone was dancing and had a good time. He was thoughtful and fun, and even allowed me to guest dj (Mike was much better than me). He truly cared, and made our night so so special! We would definitely hire Mike again!

I cannot say enough about how good Michael Pachino is. He is a true professional. He listens closely to the client and will work with you and your family to design the best possible bar/bat mitzvah party. As a DJ, he'll play the songs and games that you and your child want. He will make an incredible montage of photos/videos for the party, too. Unlike many DJs, he will not take over the party with his voice or volume. Finally, he is a "one stop shop": in addition to being your DJ, he'll help you get invitations and guest party gifts done in a professional, timely way.

From the initial meeting to the day of the event, Mike was easy to work with and detail oriented. His work is top notch. He takes time to get to know the family and personalizes the event accordingly. He has great suggestions but is also interested in what the family wants and desires. He is extremely organized and provides just enough information to help the family plan for the event without the process becoming too overwhelming. He is a true professional!

Mike was the most amazing DJ and event planner I've ever met! Everyone of our guests left with a smile on their face and a great experience. Mike helped me plan out what we wanted to do and he ran with it. His Horah was the most fun and interactive that anyone has ever seen. He worked within my budget and made ALL of my dreams and my daughter's dreams come true! Thanks so much DJ Mike!

Mike set the tone, orchestrated all the details, and kept everyone on the dance floor (all with an incredible sense of humor). He got to know our family to learn what kind of event we were looking for in terms of flow, song selection and activities, and then spent extra time with our daughter to make sure that the evening was exactly what she wanted. We knew Mike would be amazing, but he exceeded our incredibly high expectations!!!

Mike did an amazing job! We recommend him without any reservations whatsoever. He was thoroughly engaged in the planning process, met with us twice before the event. It was clear he was giving us very personal attention. He understood exactly what our son (and we) wanted and executed it perfectly! I can't recall ever hosting a party where you didn't have to say or ask the DJ to do something, but with Mike, we didn't have to say a thing. Everyone absolutely loved it! The dance floor was packed the entire time! I would hire Mike again in an instant.

My son wasn't keen on having a wild, loud dance party to celebrate his bar mitzvah. Mike "got" that and went out of his way to personalize the party specifically for my son. He kept all of the guests, kids and adults alike, engaged with his upbeat personality, fun games, and inclusive nature. The music choices and volume met my son's requests and everyone had a great time. I HIGHLY recommend Mike on the Mic and plan to have him at my younger son's bar mitzvah in 4 years!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
