Isaac Sent on 01/27/2024Zeke is the best of the best
DJ Zeke and his MC Mike Barber exceeded our expectations in every sense of the word and delivered the wedding of our dreams. I could not endorse someone more strongly than Zeke and his team.
We had the unique challenge of blending Egyptian music with American dance tunes, and Zeke seamlessly fused the two, ensuring everyone had the time of their lives. From the beginning of the reception, the dance floor was alive, and Zeke's confident and stylish approach, along with Mike's engaging MC skills, inspired every single person to get up and dance. The dance floor was full and vibrant literally the entire night. No lulls or breaks. His skill in engaging both Egyptian and American audiences shined. Again, he kept everyone dancing throughout the night.
Zeke's professionalism was evident from the start. He arrived fully prepared with his team, and the event unfolded seamlessly. Zeke brings the party and you should feel extremely confident that your night will go off without a hitch.
We were particular about our music preferences, creating a "DO NOT PLAY" list and sharing a playlist that inspired Zeke. He not only incorporated our suggestions but enhanced them, showcasing an understanding of when to play each track and at what point of the night. We also had Zeke play for our after-party, where he effortlessly kept everyone on the dance floor all night long...until 1am and closed us out with a bang.
DJ Zeke and MC Mike Barber went above and beyond our expectations. Mike's energy as the MC brought an additional level of excitement to our wedding. They were not just professionals but also easygoing and approachable, making it feel like we had known them for years.
In every sense, DJ Zeke and Mike exceeded our expectations. They turned our wedding into an unforgettable celebration. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you, Zeke, for creating the wedding of our dreams. Even now, I'm receiving texts from friends who can't stop raving about your outstanding performance. -

Brett Sent on 03/15/2025You'll never question a thing if you go with DJ Zeke
DJ Zeke was a pillar of the St John's University community so I was thrilled to see him listed as a highly recommended wedding DJ as well and didn't hesitate to book him for my wedding. Zeke is extremely personable and professional which provided us with a lot of reassurance throughout the planning stage. He had a detailed process to understand our/our guests musical taste. He was very responsive and worked to fully understand the type of wedding vibe we were hoping for, including offering a photo booth and MC which was extremely convenient and economical to not have to book another vendor. We'd spoken enough via telephone and Zoom beforehand that we felt we already knew each other and had no doubts going into the event on what to expect nor in his abilities.
As for the wedding, Zeke did spectacularly! We had a decent sized (185 guests) wedding in a traditional wedding venue and he had all of the proper equipment and knowledge to handle both the ceremony and reception flawlessly. The MC was equally personable and experienced to naturally keep the flow of the reception without missing a beat. The photobooth was a huge hit with our guests who loved having a physical memento to take home and were able to save the digital copies afterwards too. Finally, the best for last, I'd have to mention the set/songs Zeke picked were exceptional. He had a wide variety of genres which was great for our guests of mixed ages, geographic, and cultural backgrounds, and seemed very in tune with how the guests were reacting to each song in order to tailor the playlist with the mood of the party in real-time. Every guest I spoke to after considered the wedding a huge success, a great time, and among the best they'd ever been to and most if not all listed DJ Zeke as one of the main reasons.
All in all, I couldn't recommend DJ Zeke enough for someone planning any type of event looking for great musical taste, professionalism, and simply great energy required to create a fun and comfortable event for all. -

Terrence Sent on 11/16/2023Simply Remarkable!!!
Words cannot truly describe how masterful DJ Zeke is! He and Mike the MC made a wedding a night we will never forget. From the moment I scoured his IG page after looking him up on the Wedding Wire I know I needed Zeke to DJ our wedding and are we ever thankful he did. From the initial conversation all the way up to right before the reception began Zeke did everything he could to make sure the wedding vibe was exactly as we wanted it, he listened to our requests, changed things on the dime if needed and he and Mike the MC keep the room jumping the whole night. I truly can't recommend him enough. Truly the best money we spent on this wedding was purchasing his service, truly the GOAT and we are forever thankful! -

Brittany Sent on 10/16/2023Best dj in the world
Let me just start off by saying that my wife was worried at first as this was a multicultural wedding, and Greek music needed to be in a specific order/ mix- ZEKE KILLED IT. He blended the music beautifully, and really listened and accommodated all of our wants and needs. ALSO, MIKE THE MC WAS PHENOMENAL AS WELL!!! They were both early, and everybody could not stop dancing !!!! Truly felt like they've known us our whole lives. CANNOT THANK THEM ENOUGH!!!! (PS: I never write reviews, but the world needs to know how amazing these two are!!! )
This guy is worth every penny & you won't regret hiring him- in fact, you'll regret it if you don't hire the dynamic duo Zeke & Mike!!!!

Horatio Sent on 05/21/2023It was a movie!
DJ Zeke turned our special day into an unforgettable celebration. From the moment the music started, nobody sat down outside of dinner because the energy and fun were simply infectious! It was an absolute blast from start to finish.
DJ Zeke brought an unmatched level of talent, professionalism, and enthusiasm to the party. He listened to our music preferences and requests, seamlessly blending different genres and eras, ensuring that the dance floor was always alive with excitement. The transitions between songs were flawless, keeping the energy high and the momentum flowing. I couldn't believe it when I looked around and saw everyone on their feet, laughing, and dancing with sheer joy. It was like a scene straight out of a movie!
If you're planning your wedding and want an experience that will leave your guests raving, I cannot recommend DJ Zeke enough. Trust me when I say, you won't regret choosing him for your wedding.

Just Sent on 05/10/2023Wedding planner approved!
If I could give Zeke 10 stars I would. I've worked events with him before, and was so incredibly impressed at the level of professionalism and fun that he brings to each event- that's not easy to do. I recently added him as a vendor to my roster of 20+ vendors and that was the best decision! Not only was he easy to work with (even when my client's change their wedding date), but he just brought the energy even leading up to their day. His worksheet is well thought out, the musical decisions were on point and our clients guests were on their feet until the end! Zeke will be the best decision you make on wedding day. -

Melissa Sent on 09/23/2022Best wedding/event dj and team - period
As the bride, you do your best to make the big day as seamless as possible. Trust me, one decision that you can rest your complete trust in - is hiring DJ ZEKE as your wedding dj and emcee. My wedding was in the midst of COVID - but when I tell you Zeke's team brought the house down - they brought the house down. I've known Zeke since he was the go-to college DJ in New York and have since then witnessed him perfect his craft and his business. It doesn't matter what cultural background you come from, his team will incorporate authentic details that make the reception feel like the - best- party- of - your - family's life! You need r&b music? Done? Soca? Not a problem. Rock and Roll? Line Dancing? Easy. His emcee was authentic, hilarious, energetic and even learned key phrases in Tagalog since my family is Filipino! You already know! After filling out the questionnaire, the DJ understood the assignment to perfection. THANK YOU ZEKE, the team was nothing but FUN & LOVE & POETRY in motion! -

We worked with DJ Jerry through DJ Zeke's company and we had the best experience. We opted to use the photo booth their service offered and it was the hit of the night! Jerry was so communicative and helpful leading up to the wedding. He was a great emcee and kept our guests dancing all night long to great music. Can't recommend them enough! -

Tamara Sent on 05/23/2021Phenomenal - Book Him Now!
Zeke was fantastic to work with and as a music lover, I knew from the moment we spoke he would be our DJ. Our families are Nigerian and African-American and our friends and colleagues represent a melting pot of cultures. The music had to be reflective of this and he more than delivered. From our initial consultation, which lasted an hour an a half with us mostly talking about music, our shared Nigerian heritage, and how he and his team have adapted to respond to COVID, his range stood out and his skill at blending across genres was something I hadn't seen with other professionals we spoke to during planning. He's not a Macbook DJ. He watches the crowd and adapts based on the energy in the room and his emcee, Master in Ceremony, is right on point with keeping guests engaged and entertained. These two were a dynamic duo that had the aunties, elders, and youngin's all talking about the time they had at our wedding!! -

DJ Zeke and his crew were awesome. Not only did they keep people dancing from beginning to end, they kept us on schedule from ceremony to the end of our reception. Post wedding we kept hearing about how much fun everyone had and that it was a great party. You know it’s a great time when old and young are on the floor dancing without a care.
Pre-wedding Zeke was great, helping us identify our music and sound. The pre-wedding prep with Zeke was very thorough. In the weeks leading up to the wedding I was not worried about the music because I was confident it was handled. And it was more than handled, it was perfect.
Thank you from House of Ortega. -

Sophia Sent on 03/19/2020The impact that this dynamic team had on our special night is indescribable!
DJ Zeke and Mike are truly the total package. My husband is a professional DJ and we were concerned about finding a DJ that would exceed our expectations. We connected with several DJs and were ready to book one until several friends who don’t even know one another referred DJ Zeke. The moment we connected with him we knew we could look no further. He and my husband connected instantly! Zeke is an open format DJ that can literally play anything but most importantly, his personality and professionalism are unmatched. Mike’s hosting and Zeke’s seamless mixing made our reception! No matter the background or culture, everyone was dancing and engaged with Zeke and his team. We look forward to booking him again and assure you that booking DJ Zeke will be more than worth it! We love ya Zeke! Thank you, for everything.

Anthony Sent on 02/23/2020Flawless DJ Services
When my fiancée and I decided to have a DJ at our engagement party, we scoured the internet and contacted close to 25 DJs and “production companies” (*yawn*). Though all of them seemed competent and were more or less within the same price point, we were looking for a very specific DJ who could accommodate our unique and specific needs. This was going to be the first time our extended families met and we were looking for lots of US hip-hop/dance as well as Middle Eastern and Hispanic music (middle eastern/Hispanic parties aren’t complete without lots of booty-shaking).
We came across DJ Zeke (aka ‘the shining star of NY’ as his Nicki Minaj shout-out would say) somewhat randomly and decided to give him a call. He was extremely responsive, super friendly, and after having a very thorough conversation, we decided to move forward with him…and man are we glad we did.
On the day of the party we arrived to set up, and he was already there. All set up and ready to go. He double checked with us on what music we wanted more of and that was basically it. We barely spoke to him after that and he just did his thing the whole time.
Now we were obviously expecting a DJ that knew how play the songs we wanted to keep the party fun, but Zeke was way more than that. He created an energy that made the atmosphere fun as hell. I don’t know how to explain it, but it just seemed like every song he played was the best possible song that could’ve been playing at that precise moment. He knew exactly when to turn up the heat, but also when to turn it down (food, etc.). Which is exactly what you need in a DJ, someone who can feel the room and can react appropriately. Usually DJs can amplify the effect and mood in the room—Zeke SET the mood in the room. With people on the dance floor he slowly knew how to escalate to have peak effect and when to slowly deescalate. It created exactly the kind of atmosphere that made people grab others who were sitting down to join in on the fun.
The transitions between songs were seamless—despite being completely different from one another. English to Arabic, Arabic to Spanish, it didn’t matter, everything flowed perfectly. One thing I even noticed was that he played Middle-Eastern songs that that were so Middle Eastern, you had to ask yourself, how the hell did he find this song?! It really didn’t take long for several people to come up and ask me—where did you find this guy? What’s his name? etc. One close friend who is getting married in the near future is even thinking about dumping the DJ they were going to hire to pick up DJ Zeke.
It’s not easy to DJ for a party and have everyone come out satisfied: old, young, white, Hispanic, Middle-Eastern, etc…but somehow it was done, and it was executed flawlessly. I don’t say this lightly: Zeke is a master of his craft. You’d be out of your mind to not book him. Needless to say, he’s going to DJ our wedding.
Don’t think about it, just book him. -

Joanna Sent on 02/03/2020he gets you
We initially had a hard time finding a DJ that we "felt" was good for us, until we found Zeke. Most wedding DJs, in my experience during the wedding prep, ask you the same questions and answer in similar matters. But there was something different about Zeke over the first phone call and I got connected instantly. I could tell he was able to understand what I really wanted for my wedding. I wanted to party like I was back in college on my wedding day with certain types of hiphop and top 40s. Zeke had a full unlimited list of songs in that genre and got everyone to dance, including the adults. Couple friends who know music more than the norm came up to me to compliment what a great job we did on hiring Zeke. I am Korean and it can be hard to get ALL Koreans to get up to the dance floor. That was not the case for Zeke and everyone had a great time because the music was nonstop on point and it was exactly what I wanted. He answers very quickly to all texts/emails and knows how to mix the songs, even k-pop. My parents were not familiar with the American culture of weddings but they absolutely had a blast as well and I know we could not have achieved a successful unforgettable night without Zeke's professionalism, skills, music choices, manners, style and everything. I love him and his work so much I want to find another opportunity to work with him again in the future! -

Josh Sent on 01/14/2020Best dj period!
Zeke has been a friend of mine for the better part of a decade...I knew the day I got married, he would be my DJ! I have NEVER seen this guy have a bad set...until my wedding day...when he HAD THE BEST SET I've ever heard him play!!! He ABSOLUTELY MURDERED OUR WEDDING (in the best way possible, haha)!!!!!!!! We could not ask for a better team. We cannot even begin to thank you and the whole DJ Zeke Entertainment team for the unbelievable job you guys did. Literally not one person walked out without saying “the DJ, MC and the sax player were phenomenal.” We know that this may sound biased, but, we've NEVER been to a wedding this LIT...From ceremony to cocktails to reception he kept the oldies perfectly mixed with the "newies" -- even went so far to mix the old songs that the new songs sampled with each other -- keeping EVERY single person on the dance floor until they literally kicked us out of the venue. We've never been to a wedding where everyone was on their feet, partying the WHOLE time. He brought an extremely professional crew, light up glow sticks, TVs, different set ups for each portion of the party, a FANTASTIC MC, Mike Barber, and We have literally not one bad thing to say. They came early, were extremely organized, worked well with the venue, listened to our every request, took our cues from the dance floor. You took every word we said in our consult (even though most of it made no sense), and turned it into EXACTLY WHAT WE DREAMED OF. We love you Zeke, and the whole DJ Zeke Entertainment team. We're never doing another party without them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

Do you want to have the wedding of the century? Do you want your guests to be dripping with sweat from dancing all night long? Hire Dj Zeke. Plain and simple. There’s not one person who is not still talking about the music and how much they danced at my wedding. He made it an unforgettable event! I had 200 people and he had that place ROCKING. He also has his own photo booth, not one of those big bulky ones but one of the smaller stand up sleek ones it was a hit. Book him and let the magic happen ! -

DJ Zeke was super professional and super caring when it came to our wedding. His attention to detail brought to light certain things we didn’t even think about when planning our wedding. He also has an amazing team that was very kind and greeted everyone with a smile. He helped craft an unforgettable reception that Our family and friends are still talking about and asking for him. The music he played crossed all genres and it was high energy non-stop fun. There wasn’t a dull moment even when it was time for dinner, people were still grooving in there seats.
DJ Zeke is not just a phenomenal DJ he enhanced our wedding with his musical selections and high fashion clothing and accessories. The shining star is not just a moniker, it is who he is. He lit up our wedding with endless fun.
Thank you DJ Zeke we couldn’t have imagined our day without you! -

Elizabeth Sent on 06/18/2019Not your parents' wedding DJ
Our wedding reception was amazing thanks to DJ Zeke and his MC Mike! It's been 45 days since our wedding in CT, and our guests are still raving about the music and the party! We had an Indian-American fusion wedding, and the music is what really pulled the whole event together for us. DJ Zeke seamlessly interwove Bollywood hits, Reggae, Soca, hip hop and house music throughout the night. The wedding was a big cultural mix (Indian, white, Caribbean, and asian), but the boys did a good job of getting people out on the dance floor and keeping them there. Let's be clear - DJ Zeke is not a traditional wedding DJ - he works weddings, but he brings the party. You and your guests better be ready to dance. -
![Christine]()
Christine Sent on 04/02/2019Best wedding dj ever... Hands down.
Simply put, Zeke was INCREDIBLE. He was hired to perform at both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. After the rehearsal dinner, friends and fam needed to literally ice their knees and feet from dancing so much. The dance floor was never unoccupied and Zeke managed to cater to all ages and genres of music. His MC'ing was incredible and kept the energy high at all times. On a personal level, he couldn't of been a better guest as he went above and beyond helping with non-DJ related tasks. He couldn't have done a better job and we plan on hiring him for any future events and have already passed along his contact information to at least 10 guests who plan on eventually using his services in the future. 5 DIAMOND performance! -

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing! Words cannot begin to express how grateful we were to have Zeke DJ our wedding. Upon booking our venue, I told my husband “we have to book Zeke.” If you’re looking for a versatile, detail oriented, charismatic, and BOMB DJ look no further. He will have your guest leaving with their shoes in their hands and sweat on the dance floor. -
