    Excellent DJ

    Rick was an absolute standout as our wedding DJ, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, he was incredibly communicative and easy to work with, always responsive and clear in making sure every detail was handled. He brought a level of professionalism and respect that really put us at ease throughout the entire process.

    What really set Rick apart was his flexibility. We had a drag show during our reception, and he went above and beyond to support it seamlessly. He coordinated everything perfectly, adapted on the fly when needed, and made sure the performances went off without a hitch. It truly elevated the energy of the night and made that part of our wedding unforgettable.

    Overall, Rick delivered exactly what we hoped for and more... great music, smooth execution, and genuine support for our vision. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who’s not only talented, but also reliable and easy to work with.

    Highly Recommend!

    From the first introductory call, Richard was a pleasure to work with ahead of the wedding and really got to know our styles. He seamlessly blended a couple niche inside-joke songs with crowd favorites, keeping the energy high the entire night. 6 months later and all our friends and family still talk about how it was the best dance floor they've ever experienced!

    Superstar dj

    We hired Freshtracks for our 2025 wedding in Mammoth and could not have had a better experience with him. From the planning sessions to the execution day of, we were in phenomenal hands!!! When I say he was the LIFE OF THE PARTY at our wedding, I truly mean it!! He knew exactly what each moment of the night needed. From the intros, the speeches, to the opening song on the dance floor, he brought the ENERGY and perfect touches. He had everyone hyped all night. Could not recommend Rick more!!! Our wedding guests could not stop talking about him for weeks. You will not regret having him at your wedding!

    Newlyweds awesome experience

    FreshTracks DJ Richard was awesome! This had to be the most important decision we had to make for our big day. Richard was super professional and took the time to get to know us. He even had us fill out this awesome questionnaire to help him really understand what we were looking for in our big day. The music was extremely important to us as it can make or break your wedding. He even took the time to study what that music our culture listens to and how to blend it in with modern day tracks. Our guests had an amazing time and I have to say it was thanks to him. He was able to keep the young crowd engaged while the elderly crowd pleased. We never stopped dancing and the night just flowed perfectly. They say you get what you pay for, I think he exceeded our expectations tremendously. Thank you FreshTracks! Can’t wait to find another party to throw and dance night away with you.

    June Lake Jam with the Fabulous Fresh Tracks

    Wowzers in our collective trousers, a gotdamn TIME was had. Rick was our musical mystic, our shaman of song, our gala guru. The vibes? Immaculate. The music? Transcendent. The man himself? Legendary. From the moment we began corresponding with Rick, every interaction was fun. He was genuine and caring, taking the time to dig into what (insane) musical stylings we wanted at our wedding. He made a music map to help us visualize and understand how he was creating a flow from the ceremony to cocktail hour, from first dance to last call. And my god did the man execute on the vision. There were multiple times throughout the night when we looked up from getting down to see LITERALLY every single one of our guests (octogenarians included) SWEATING on the dance floor. Aunts and uncles boogie-ing to Boosie, grandparents grinding to Gucci Mane, cousins going crazy to Cauthen. It was mayhem in the best way possible, a party of preposterous proportions, all orchestrated by FreshTracks himself.

    Rick killed it!

    Rick was so awesome at our first wedding. He killed it on the songs and sound effects during the speeches. He really helped make the event shine. Our friends were chanting his name by the end of the night!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Drew and Jamie's wedding day was of my finest all time. The flow, the crowd based song selection, and variety of genre's we got into was special. Dance floor packed all night long. I'm forever grateful to have been a part of this celebration.

    Wildest dance party of our lives

    Rick was a breeze to work with, making everything during the planning process so easy. The dance floor literally took on a life of its own and could not be stopped. The dance floor was so lit our photographer said he took 13,000 photos - the most he has ever taken in a single night. Our guests almost felt the need to run to the bar to get refills because they didn't want to miss a second of the dancefloor. I even got to go up behind the DJ booth - could not recommend Rick enough.

    The BEST DJ in the Sierras!

    Richard made our wedding day the absolute best! We could not have done it without him. He started planning with us over a year in advance and kept everything running smooth and stress free. He was so involved in curating the perfect vibe and worked closely with all of our other vendors to help in every way he could. Everything from the ceremony to cocktail hour to speeches and reception went perfectly with his help. His live mixing and ability to read the vibes of our guests kept everyone on the dance floor all night. I can't recommend him enough! He is by far the best DJ you can hire in the Eastern Sierras and I would hire him for any event I do in the future.

    Best wedding dj!

    I will be honest, at first there was a sticker shock as it goes for shopping for Wedding vendors. Gotta say though... Rick was one vendor who was WORTH IT to spend the extra dollars!! The wedding energy can die so quickly at other weddings if the DJ is not bringing the fun and energy! Rick went above and beyond keeping the music vibes we had previously discussed as well as his cool lighting for the room and pictures! Rick was AMAZING with his song transitions, song selections, and maintaining the fun on the dance floor! HIGHLY recommend, and I truly had so many guests coming to me after the fact commenting on how great our wedding DJ was!

    Rick will bring the energy!!

    From our very first call with Rick, we knew we were in great hands. His energy, professionalism, and clear passion for music immediately stood out. Throughout the planning process, Rick was exceptionally prepared. He anticipated our questions, offered thoughtful guidance, and ensured every detail was covered well before the big day.

    On our wedding day, Rick executed everything flawlessly from start to finish. The transitions, timing, and song choices were perfect. There were no surprises, just a seamless flow of great music that kept everyone on the dance floor. He respected our “do not play” list, incorporated all our favorite songs, and read the crowd perfectly.

    We received countless compliments from our guests about how fun and memorable the music was. Rick truly elevated our celebration, and we could not recommend him more highly to any couple looking for a top-tier wedding DJ.

    JPR (Just Pick Rick)

    Allow me to take one decision off your planning-rattled minds. Just Pick Rick to DJ your wedding. After attending a wedding Rick DJed, we knew for certain our wedding day would be a bust without him. His energy is boundless; his transitions are perfect; he has disco balls; he may be immortal. All at once he is the life of the party and a total professional. Rick struck the perfect balance of fun contemporary hits woven seamlessly with classic jams that got our parents grooving. Our wedding guests have not stopped raving about how much fun they had on the dance floor. I haven't stopped raving about how easily the day flowed with Rick's direction, skill, and confidence. He is a total delight to work with.

    FreshTracks, Fresh Vibes, Great Times

    FreshTracks on a bluebird powder day does not even come close to how incredible of a day FreshTracks Entertainment will make your wedding. With hands down the best name for a mountain-town DJ, Rick backs up his name by laying down an impeccably handcrafted setlist for the wedding.

    His passion shone through in every email and conversation we had with him. With our wide-ranging tastes in music and interesting song requests that we wanted to squeeze into the evening, we were not sure how our spectrum of favorite genres would blend. That worry faded away instantly as Rick seamlessly delivered what many guests described as the most epic setlist they’ve ever experienced at a wedding. Setting just the atmosphere we wanted at each phase of our wedding, while creating some of the most nuanced and fantastic transitions for the dancefloor, Rick kept the party going until the very end.

    Working with Rick was effortless and a blast. He was constantly looking for ways to make our day great, and a highlight was debuting his newest feature, an epic disco ball! With everything needed to plan for a wedding, planning your playlist might seem easy and fun, but it can get surprisingly overwhelming. Not with Rick and his music mapping journey. Rick helped us break it down, perfectly capturing the vibe of our relationship, while honoring the individuality of both my wife’s and my eclectic tastes. Rick is very professional, but always brings that upbeat energy you want from your wedding entertainer. You can’t go wrong selecting FreshTracks Entertainment for your wedding, but you CAN go wrong if you don’t.

    The Absolute Best

    DJ Freshtracks was the absolute best in every way. He was so helpful and organized throughout the planning process and made great recommendations when we needed ideas or guidance. Most importantly, he crushed it on our wedding day with keeping the dance floor so fun all night - it was truly my favorite part of the reception. His passion and energy are unmatched! If you want your wedding to be fun and you want a ceremony and reception that are going to run smoothly, you need DJ Freshtracks!

    Best dj ever

    If you are planning a wedding in the Eastern Sierra’s, DJ Rick is an absolute must. He is straight-up amazing. Some would even call him a LEGEND! Because he literally is. All of our wedding guests still rave about DJ Rick - the energy he created, the brilliant and smooth transitions, and the killer music. We literally danced the night away - well until the venue kicked us out - but we dance our booties off because the set was that good! Sure, Im biased towards my own wedding, but i’ve never been to one with a better DJ - and all of the wedding guests agreed. Rick captured our style and taste in music perfectly!

    In addition to being a super talent Dj, Rick is just a great dude and awesome vendor. Wedding planing can be tough at times and some vendors can be such a hassle to deal with. This was NEVER the case with Rick. Rick was super accessible and quick to respond throughout the entire planning process. He knows the industry well - making recommendations, helping to work through some timeline logistics, and even doing some coordinating of his own. His positive attitude is contagious and professionalism greatly appreciated. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you Dj Rick! You played a huge role in making our wedding day as special as it was.

    Our June Mountain Wedding

    DJ Freshtracks was an absolute VIBE. He made our big day seamless, and one hell of a party. He was always super responsive to emails, phone calls, and made sure to answer all of our questions and needs. All of my guests talked about how awesome DJ Rick was. People were literally on the dance floor all night. Which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you DJ Freshtracks!!!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    You are Welcome Superstar Bride!
    Insane energy. One of my all time favorite wedding days! Your ceremony was magic and the Dance floor was wall to wall! We got some Skrillex in there, You and Neil, with Robyn was All time, we were really able to tell your story. LOVE.

    So talented and professional!

    From the first call with Rick, we were put to ease knowing we were in the best hands. I actually remember my then fiancé and I were dreading another vendor phone call, but we chatted with Rick for an hour and it was like we were chatting with a great friend and clicked. First off, he is so impressive at his craft and he truly has an admirable passion for what he does! We had a few phone calls and a Spotify playlist so he could study our likes and don't-likes, and he did an amazing job filling in the rest. He is talented at reading the room and seamlessly transitioning music-- we did NOT want a cheesy DJ, and we absolutely had the furthest from it! He really has such genuine, enthusiastic energy and he authentically cares about his clients and their experience. Thank you for being an essential part to our beautiful day, Rick!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    My superstar Bride Kristy! So much beauty in these words, warms my heart. "Felt like we were chatting with a great friend and it just clicked" That's the stuff! We work together for a year in planning and details, we are together for every breath, every beat of your event. That connection is critical. It all starts with that connection and Love.

    He’s the best!

    DJ Rick is literally the best!! It is immediately obvious how passionate he is about his work, but also puts in maximum effort to make your day extra special and perfect. He spends time getting to know your music taste, understanding your vision, and then bringing it to life. His set for our wedding was DOPE 🔥 and beyond anything we could have imagined! Even all of our guests commented on how fun he made our wedding. DJ Rick did not miss a single beat!!

    Best DJ ever?!!

    Rick was super fun from our first meeting through the entire wedding. He was incredibly organized, timely, and professional. He helped us put together our timeline for the reception as well, perfect. The ceremony and reception ran so smoothly and he did such a great job not only as DJ but also as MC. He brought the energy without stealing the show and kept the dancefloor packed. I didn't need to communicate with him at all the day of our wedding because he had everything locked down. I really can't think of a single thing he could've done better in any way. If you're not using Fresh Tracks for your event you are missing out!

    A musical journey

    Rick played an INCREDIBLE set for our reception.

    We had a unique guest list full of b-boys and b-girls (including one of the grooms). We were all SO impressed by Rick's spinning. We thought he rocked it better than some break DJs we've heard. We rarely see DJs actually enjoying their own music like Rick does.

    We were also surprised to see him scratching and loved how much he put his whole body into it!

    One b-girl pointed out how he brought us on a musical journey through different genres, decades (70s/80s/90s), AND regions (we weren't expecting to get hyphy).

    So many of his song choices and transitions were just *chef's kiss*. He can read the room and adapt to everyone's energy levels.

    Rick was also super easy to work with in the months leading up to the wedding. The best thing we did was give a general idea of the music we liked to mingle, dine, and dance to, and just let Rick do his thing.

    You Won't be Disappointed!

    Rick was such a joy to work with and be a part of our wedding celebration. He was extremely helpful with the planning process and, in fact, was our only vendor who didn't leave tasks until the last minute. We felt prepared with our music to-do list months before the official day, and when the day finally arrived, I felt super confident with what Rick was playing. We all had an amazing time. My friends coined him "Saint Rick" after all the laughs, good vibes, and fun DJing he provided. Rick is a professional at his craft so with FreshTracks, you will never be disappointed!

    Just choose Rick!

    Rick was wonderful to work with for our wedding. He was very organized, attentive, and he truly was there to support us and our vision on our big day. I really appreciated his Music Mapping worksheet as it was such an organized way to map out all the music we wanted for the day. He also checked-in with us leading up to the wedding to see if any changes need to be made.

    Best of all, we loved his energy! He was engaged the whole evening, was able to read the crowd and adjust the music appropriately, and many of our friends and family raved about his song choices. He even had our shyest guests dancing!

    Overall, we had a wonderful experience working with Rick, and I would definitely choose to work with him again. Highly recommended!

    Thanks, Rick!

    Amazing dj! Made our wedding epic

    Rick was the best DJ we could have hoped for. The reviews are correct, he can light up a room, get everyone on the dance floor, and truly make your wedding a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We had such an amazing time and it was all due to his hard work and true care in personalizing our music. He also knew how to read a room and get people on the dance floor. 10/10 Recommend. His knowledge in music is insane as well, there wasn't 1 song we mentioned he hadn't heard of.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Vanessa is a superstar bride!

    We met so organically she was touring a venue as I was setting up for a wedding day. I introduced myself and feared I may have came on a bit strong. My energy setting up for a wedding day is often like that of a coiled cobra and It might be a bit much.

    In her fabulous review Vanessa Says "true care". When I think about what it is I do better than anyone else you could hire, (the list is long.... HAHA). It is care. Simply and truly I care more, about the quality and success of your event. I care a lot. You deserve it.

    Hire DJ Rick he's the best!

    DJ Rick was amazing!! From start to finish he was dedicated, communicative, and full of energy! He took the time to have multiple phone call meetings to make sure we had our playlists and flow of the day dialed in. My husband and I would honestly look forward to these calls because Rick was always getting us pumped up while maintaining such professionalism. He was very organized and made the process so fun and stress-free. Our wedding ceremony and reception went perfectly. He brought the energy to all the guests and had our dance floor POPPIN' literally the entire night which was exactly how we wanted it! He let me (the bride) take his mic and rap one of my favorite Eminem songs to the whole crowd which was definitely a highlight for me. We would 100% recommend hiring him as a DJ and wished we lived closer to Mammoth so that we could use him again for parties or any other big event. We had so many of our guests tell us during and after the wedding how great the music was and energy on the dance floor which had so much to do with our wonderful DJ!

    Extraordinary

    Oh, where to even start...hiring DJ Rick, FreshTracks Entertainment, was the best and easiest decision of the entirety of wedding planning! Rick made everything less stressful! His outline of the event is clean, professional, easy to use, and made each and every transition flow seamlessly! Rick is just the best! He made us feel like a King and Queen on our special day! He felt like a friend and made our party come to life by reading the crowd and bringing the hype! Our wedding would not have been the same without him and we cannot thank him enough for bringing the good times and good vibes! We love Rick and you will too!

    Rick is a vibe!

    Let me start off this review with the fact that the DJ was our first wedding vendor that we booked. After minimal research, FreshTracksEntertainment kept showing up everywhere we looked. This was a clear sign that Rick must be good...and boy was he GOOD! I first reached out in September 2021 to inquire about our September 2022 wedding at Forest Chapel and McCoy Station in Mammoth Lakes. We met up for coffee at Black Velvet and were sold. We booked him in October and he checked in every now and then until the wedding. We also booked his Photo Booth because it's a GREAT deal...and we're a big photobooth couple ;) We had a phone call closer to the wedding and we worked through a Google doc with all of the information he would need (couple info, songs, our preferences, etc.) as a team. He had sample playlists and offered multiple times if we wanted or needed suggestions on songs (first dance, walking down the aisle, etc.). I just can't say enough how AWESOME he was. He set everything up, was on time, the speakers didn't go out, his transitions were FLAWLESS, I mean...he was just perfect. We received SO many compliments during the reception about how the DJ was the best wedding DJ they had ever heard. And still to this day- a year later, our friends and family still talk about the music/party aka DJ Rick. THANK YOU RICK!!!

    Best DJ ever!

    We interviewed several DJs as we knew this person would be responsible for keeping the party going at our wedding. We knew immediately Rick at DJ Freshtracks was our DJ after talking with him and seeing how much how he loved his job, and the energy he brought to just talking about our music and event! Everyone at our wedding was so impressed by his skills, wondering how they just danced for 4 hours straight! He listened to our desires and then brought it to reality in ways we would have never thought of. Highly recommend Rick for your event!

    Spectacular

    I cannot imagine a better wedding day experience with a DJ. Rick was incredibly in-depth and wanted to make sure our wedding was exactly what we wanted. During the ceremony and happy hour he did a fantastic job of keeping the vibe fun, while making sure everyone stayed on schedule. But the real show starts at the reception, right from the start he brought the energy through the roof. He kept everyone on schedule with great introductions for all speakers. Once it was time to dance Rick had the entire crowd on the dance floor, from grandmothers to aunts and uncles to 4 year old nephews, he had everyone having the time of their life.

    We truly couldn't imagine a better experience than working with DJ Fresh Tracks. He made a day we will never forget absolutely perfect, since the wedding I have talked with many friends that have raved about the music at both the wedding and the reception. Everyone loved the work he did! There is really no other DJ I would use!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    My goal for the 2023 wedding season wasn't more weddings or more profit. My goal was simply to wake up the next day and feel like "that was the best wedding I've ever done" more times than I did last year. On this day I had that feeling. Dreamy. Once in a lifetime. Love and Magic. So grateful for couples like Devin and Stacey.

    DJ Fresh Tracks was ALL-TIME!

    As we come up on our one year anniversary, we want to give a shout out to the best DJ out there, Rick! Til this day, our friends still talk about what a legend DJ Fresh Tracks was at our wedding! He brought the energy and good vibes, and rocked every moment of our special day. Aside from keeping the party going, he’ll be there from the very beginning to support you through your big day and keep you stress free. Rick was highly organized and professional, and had great communication leading up to the wedding. He’s an all around amazing person who I highly recommend. If you are having a wedding or event in the Mammoth area, hands down, Rick is the best there is to bring the entertainment to your party.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Jen and Jon!
    As a small business you are always looking for you ideal client.
    This is them. Snowboarders rad diverse fun taste in music. It was a spring wedding and there can be some extra magic in spring air. Love and renewal and celebration and dance. I will always adore Jen and Jon and their wedding day!

    Rick brought the best energy to our wedding and was the best / easiest vendor to work with!

    Rick was the absolute best DJ and overall vendor we worked with for our wedding at Convict Lake Resort! Our guests and us were on the dance floor the whole night and he does an incredible job of playing a good mix of music that is favorable to the couple, friends, family etc.. Rick has the best energy which really made the overall experience working with him; not just at the wedding itself, but also with every meeting leading up to the big day as well. He's very organized and communicative throughout the whole planning process. We appreciated the frequent touch points with him letting us know what we could expect, what we needed to provide him with and when as well as what we could expect for the day of. We also loved that he always made an effort to meet up with us for coffee when we were in town to chat / get to know us as a couple.

    Couldn't recommend Rick more to DJ your wedding or big event!

    Amazing night

    DJ Freshtracks (Rick) CRUSHED IT at our wedding! We had so many people come up to us during/after the wedding and say they had one of their best times at a wedding because the music was on fire the whole time.

    Really appreciated that Rick worked with us through his music mapping document ahead of time to get the right vibes for ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dance floor. And he truly executed the vision! The dance floor was on fire, he was a fun MC throughout the night, and it was overall so seamless.

    A ton of fun working with FreshTracks. Highly recommend!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Tammy and Vincent's Wedding Day was iconic.
    WoW! Tammy and I really worked well together and I felt this wedding day reflected that. Moments were elegant and romantic and fun and the audio was warm. The Dance floor was INSANE. Tammy was like, " No need for throwbacks let's start DIRTY and then move to HIGH Energy" I was like YEAH! Sometimes when I get this type of request I'm like, ok, but what if the crowd won't reflect that.... Then, when I saw her crew and her family and friends, I knew we were gonna light it up. Thank you so very much TAMMY and Vincent for having me as a part of your love story.

    Shelly and Tony Best part of our wedding! (other than getting married of course)

    After our first meeting, we knew that no matter what happened on our wedding day, we would have a blast! Doing most of our own wedding planning, Rick was there for us every step of the way, even if wasn't DJ related. Rick was so thoughtful and made sure to include our very diverse group of friends and family, including taking Spanish lessons from his son to greet our guests. Once Rick gets into the zone, he transforms into a DJing machine and is able to use the vibe of the dance floor to keep it going at all times. The dance floor had most of our guests there the entire time, including my mom, and that is saying a lot! We could not picture our wedding without Rick there, as he was truly the greatest asset to our wedding.
    HANDS DOWN, BEST D.J. EVER!!!

    He crushed it!

    Start to finish, Rick made my husband and I feel like he was there to make our wedding the best event of our lives. While he works with so many couples, he takes time to get to know you, your overall wedding vibe/inspiration, and what elements of the day are important to you. He was thoughtful and punctual for all our pre-wedding meetings, and always accommodated our busy schedule. We were grateful for all the guidance (the music map!) and suggestions as we went through the planning process. As far as the actual ceremony, there’s no better person than Rick to DJ your wedding. He has an incredible selection of music and knows exactly what to play. He is so skilled at reading the energy of the crowd. Many of our guests complimented Rick’s warm, fun energy and we know that he probably was having as much fun as we all were. We cannot recommend him highly enough. We hope to catch one of his local shows around the Mammoth area, or just meet for coffee at Black Velvet!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Brad and Jann!

    The ceremony in the fall colors was peaking, couldn't have asked for more. Our planning and meetings always left me glowing. Brad and Jann even helped me to discover one of my favorite new artists this year! The love and warmth in their cabin venue was all time. It was styled beyond what I'd seen before, and stunning. The venue itself changed some of the song selections early in the evening based on feel and elegance. As the night went on there was one of those organic moments on the dance floor that I will never forget. One of those every so often perfect song selections I just happened to make as the Groom and his Groomsman crafted a surprise for the bride. It hit so hard, FUN!. I'll never forget the BlackPink tracks we played and sharing those moments, totally dig these tunes and we shared in this energy. Fantastic couple, Dreamy wedding, STYLE, YES!

    Unmatched energy and passion!!

    My husband and I got married this past summer and we can easily say having DJ Rick made our wedding day absolute perfection. Our friends and family are still raving about the energy from our wedding day and Rick is definitely to thank for that. From the beginning of planning Rick was supportive, flexible and creative. He assisted with the small and large details and gave us guidance on creating the perfect environment that depicted my husband and I’s relationship seamlessly. From the classics to newer hits, Rick new exactly what songs to play throughout the day/night that kept everyone on the dance floor. Besides being an incredible DJ, Rick has unmatched energy and passion in everything he does. If you are looking for a well versed DJ but most importantly someone who will go above and beyond for you and yours, we highly recommend having Rick be a part of your day/event! Much appreciation for everything, Rick!

    MC and Amazing DJ

    We hired FreshTracks for our July 31 wedding at Mammoth. It was raining so our top of the mountain got cancelled, but in our efforts to do it on the rooftop, Rick took his sound equipment up and down the stairs a few times. Dude is nothing but positivity and good vibes.
    The planning process was easy, he took us through a whole music plan, got to know our style, our wedding party, etc. He did an awesome job with the shoe game, which Rick introduced us to and was a huge hit at the reception.

    He had the dance floor hopping all night long, and not to be overlooked, his MC skills were on point.
    10 out of 5 stars.

    Most Epic Day Ever!

    From day one my fiancé (now husband) and I were blown away by Rick's comprehensive approach to making our wedding day the most epic day ever! He met with us before the wedding to discuss all of our preferences and has an awesome music map that we got to personalize for our day. Then the wedding actually happened and he literally blew our minds! Our guests were raving about how energetic and hilarious he was and he kept the dance floor going strong ALL NIGHT LONG! Our guests were so hyped up all night that we had not one, but 2 congo lines take place! Seriously though, Rick is a true master of his craft and we couldn't be more happy with our choice to work with him! You should absolutely hire Rick for your wedding or any event where you need the ultimate hype man!

    DJ FreshTracks for the Win!

    Rick was born to be a DJ.

    He was attentive and helpful when planning our wedding day and was willing to answer questions and provide guidance. I appreciated his method of pulling out our taste in music and determining what vibe we wanted at our wedding without too much work on our end. He was adept at providing creative boundaries and didn’t hesitate to provide constructive feedback. He perfectly walked the fine line between listening to our preferences and incorporating our distinct style while also knowing exactly what works best from his endless experience.

    When working with Rick you quickly realize how much he genuinely loves music and knows how to use it to connect people. He intuitively knew exactly what to play and when to get everyone out on the dance floor to keep the party going. He is an artist at mixing songs and a true musical talent.

    Rick also brings his own energy during the whole wedding. So many times I looked over to see him bonding with our guests or dancing and enjoying the evening with the rest of us. Once the event was over I can’t remember how many people came up to me and said “your DJ was fantastic, where did you find him!?”

    My suggestion, hire Rick and let the man do his thing. He’s a pro.

    Best dj/entertainer ever!

    Richard is seriously hands down the best DJ/entertainer we could have had for our wedding!!! From the get go of wedding planning stages until the very last seconds of our wedding night, he had such unmatched energy like no other. We’re from Hawaii and had our destination wedding at Mammoth Lakes. We really wanted to incorporate our local music in our ceremony and reception while also including wedding appropriate songs. He really made wedding planning smooth and easy and listened to exactly what we wanted and envisioned, and recommended what he thought would work best and the whole wedding day came out better than we could have ever imagined! Richard’s suggestions also helped with our wedding ceremony and reception schedule. He even made some last minute calls that worked out for the better! His intuition and vibe for the crowd is such a gift; able to read the room and bring the energy! If we could give him more than 5 stars we would! If you are having a wedding/event and are able to get Richard for entertainment, definitely go with him! You will not be disappointed! No words will ever be enough to explain how talented he is. Thank you so much for a memorable night, Richard! Aloha, The Takahashi’s

    DJ Rick is Amazing!

    Throughout the planning process, Rick was communicative, friendly, and really helped us map out the whole order of events, not just the music! You can tell how much love and effort he puts into the job. He was such a pro, and a great MC on the big day (this was a super important element we had not thought about before meeting Rick!). In addition to his knowledge and professionalism, he brought so much joy and enthusiasm to the event as a whole. And of course, when the time came, he absolutely made the dance floor go off! Recommend to the highest degree!

    The best 10/10

    BEST 10/10!!! Talk about a Rock Star of a DJ., Richard helped us pull off a successfully socially distant micro wedding in 2020 and still honored our original contract with a few modifications for a reception in 2021. Richard went the extra mile to ensure that we were happy with our music, we were doing well during the crazy times and was resilient when it came to switching venues. He listened to what we wanted for music and was able to blend the different genres of music. Richard helped link different songs to memories that will last a life time.

    DJ, Director, MC in one package

    Rick is far more than a DJ. We didn't realize how much an experienced professional like Rick could add to the whole wedding experience. He helped us conceive of a plan/schedule for the entire event, and then took charge executing it.

    In the planning phases, he was super communicative and available. He (gently) prodded us months ahead of time to make sure important decisions (like how the procession would go, etc) didn't get left until the last minute.

    He was also very flexible. Due to powers beyond anyone's control, our venue had to shut down ten days before the wedding. Rick totally pivoted and helped us move the event to a new venue at the last minute. You wouldn't have known it on the wedding day-- everything went down exactly as planned and without a hiccup.

    Lastly, his energy is contagious. The guy can read a room and get your party going. From running the reception with poise, to getting people out on the dance floor, to music selection that is on point (with as much input as you want to have)-- he really made the event a fantastic party that people are still talking about months later.

    Thank you Rick!

    Everything you could hope for in a DJ

    Richard was absolutely stellar as our wedding DJ! He was organized in the setup, professional as master of ceremonies, and he brought this amazing energy to his set that kept the dance floor full the entire night. Richard will keep everything on track from the very beginning as he crafts your vision of events with the perfect mood to match. On the day of, he kept everything running smoothly, accommodating any situations, and transitioning the reception with some fantastic music. We really wanted the dance floor to come alive, and Richard delivered that and more, it was popping the entire night! I really couldn't recommend him enough, he was everything we could have hoped for and Richard really made the night special through his amazing attitude, professionalism, and DJ skills, just the best.

    Smooth planning, perfect communication, with rocking tracks!

    DJ Rick! Let me start off by saying, best decision at the wedding other than marrying my wife. He is such a hard worker and made my special day everything I wanted it to be. My wife and I were so concerned and stressed about the wedding, especially trying to plan it during the coronavirus. After every meeting we had with Rick, our minds were sent to ease. We were motivated and ready to start planning again. It’s really hard to know what to do at a wedding, since we have never done this before, but luckily we had Rick every step of the way. His positive vibe not only got us through the planning, but lead us to a popping, fun filled environment at our wedding. The ceremony music was amazing. The transition between music and microphone speaking and dancing was so smooth, like something out of a movie that was scripted. At the venue, My friends and family were nonstop dancing to his tracks. The dance floor probably got worn out. #freshtracks. One thing I will say about Rick that I was able to read off of him is, being a DJ is not just a job for him, it is his passion in life. This is what he was born to do. So if you’re looking for a DJ to rock your wedding that can work with any situation and feel the vibe of your guests, than Freshtracks Entertainment should be the only DJ service on your list. My wife and I highly recommend!!!

    Love for Josh and Cassie. I think it's the nature of the job. Wedding days are highly emotional events. For me to truly connect I have to be open to those emotions.

    Josh touches on some major points that I will expand on here. I caught the review the morning of a wedding day. I was working on my set list and feeling a bit tired from a busy month. This fired me up and inspired, thank you JOSH.

    "Such a hard worker" It's true. HAHA.

    "Our minds were at ease" This is huge for me. Event planning can be stressful or often you don't know where to start. I can help! Being a communicator and using my experience to help guide and assure my clients is a part of the relationship.

    "so smooth it was like something out of a movie that was scripted" IT WAS SCRIPTED! A big part of what I do mid week is within creating scripts or "Gameday documents" (that's what I call them) What to play next, what to say next, performance is all about preparation.

    "BORN TO DO" I'm so grateful to hear that. that's where he got me to tears. I've had some other jobs along the way, all of which helped me to be who am I here today. I am grateful.

    "Work with any situation" "Feel the vibe of YOUR guests"

    This is the magic. That's about versatility, about being an open channel and creating in real time.
    I will work hard for you.

    Love to you Josh and Cassie,

    Rick

    Just Do It

    We spoke to a few other DJs and within I kid you not 30 seconds of our initial call, my fiancé and I looked at each other and just said YES. Not only does Rick know what he's doing when it comes to DJing, he knows what he's doing when it comes to weddings. His energy was everything we didn't know we needed from our DJ on our wedding day. MULTIPLE guests mentioned wanting him to bring back to FL with them and just overall how much they loved them. We had a lot of logistical challenges on top of COVID, county ordinance changes, and the Caldor fires and he was so beyond positive and was honestly more of a calming, reassuring presence than my wedding planner. I can't say enough good things.

    Hire Rick!

    Rick is a wizard, a true genius not only for mixing music but also for energizing a celebration. If you’re looking for a DJ in Mammoth Lakes (or anywhere for that matter), we highly, highly recommend Rick. Several things stood out to us about working with Rick, but three were especially important.

    First, Rick truly understands music and how it affects people. We were actually a bit concerned that our wedding party wouldn’t really be that into dancing on our wedding night. But Rick found ways to get everyone on their feet. People I’d never seen dance in my life were out on the dance floor having an amazing time.

    Second, Rick is extremely creative and self-sufficient, but also attentive. We weren’t really sure what we needed in a DJ and did not have many specific goals music-wise ahead of our wedding. We provided a few genres, artists, and representative songs we liked, and Rick turned it into a set list with the perfect moods for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Where we had specific ideas, for example for ceremony music, Rick fit them in exquisitely. Basically, we spent exactly the energy and thought we wanted to on the wedding, and Rick filled in the rest without any extra stress for us.

    Third, Rick’s pre-wedding process was excellent. We worked through a detailed music map that helped us brainstorm not only music, but also wedding day logistics, speeches dances, and general event flow.

    Finally, Rick just rocks a person. He has this knack for being part of the day and bringing his enthusiastic personality without being intrusive. He perfectly reads the room and finds a way to fit seamlessly into the day—all the right jokes, pumping up the energy at the right times, and really doing justice to us as a couple. He was also eternally enthusiastic and supportive. We faced several challenges in planning our wedding, including COVID and forest closures/venue changes due to wildfires. Rick was cheerful and supportive throughout the process, providing a constant source of joy and optimism when we felt anxious about our wedding day happening. You are not going to find a better DJ.

    Best DJ ever!!!!

    From the moment we met Rick back in 2019, we knew he was the man for the job. He is so full of energy and is so fun to talk to. We stuck with him through multiple postponements and we are so glad we did. He kept us dancing throughout the whole night. Even people who I expected to not dance were dancing. Rick knows when to play the best songs at the right time. He is able to amp everyone up!! He also provided a photobooth, which everyone absolutely enjoyed. The quality of the photo strips were great and the props provided were fun to use. He made our wedding super fun!!

    Best DJ Ever! First vendor you need to book!

    Seriously best DJ ever! I had so many guests coming up to me telling me what an awesome DJ Rick is. From the dinner music choices to the nonstop dancing music, everyone loved Rick!

    I first heard about Rick at the Mammoth Wedding Gala event. Rick wasn't able to attend because he had a wedding to do of course but we ran into him at that wedding venue and briefly got his card in passing. While at the gala a photographer that I spoke with gave me great advice and told me that they first vendor I needed to book was Rick, and man was he right!

    Rick was there for us through the pandemic. We we're supposed to get married in July 2020 but ended up getting married in July 2021. He was our biggest cheerleader being the uncertain times of postponement. I leaned on Rick to get a feel our how Mono county was handling the restrictions. Rick had a positive attitude the whole time but gave me realistic info about how things were looking up there. After we decided to postpone for a year, I made sure that Rick was available on our new date, I'm dead serious that if he wasn't I would have changed the date. Rick has become a true homie of ours we are so grateful that he was a part of our day. I didn't want to leave the dance floor; all his song choices were great. He has so many great suggestions and playlists for everything; recessional, processional, cocktail hour, grand entrances, first dance, parent dances, dinner music, cake cutting, etc. and he makes it all customized per couple. He's very responsive, organized, friendly, professional, hard worker, the list goes on and on.

    Thank you so much Rick! We had the best party ever and it's all because of you!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Yea Kelsy!

    These added pics are Epic! Takes me right back. That moment when you and your girls were dancing by the DJ booth was all time Fun! After last year the postponement and pain we needed the Conga line! I’ll never forget talking to your father during toasts and speeches. He said to me “ your ear, your support and optimism is a big part of why Kelsy kept this celebration. It’s a big part of why we are all here”. I almost teared up instantly the magnitude and power. The power of love. You and Chris are a superstar couple! Thank you for having me.

    10/10 recommendation!

    Rick was so much fun to work with and he knows how to bring the party! I was so impressed in the early stages of working with him how easy he made the entire process. He is incredibly organized and was always available for questions. I loved how he would check in with us periodically as well just in case we needed anything. On the day of the wedding, Rick did a great job reading the room and made sure that dance floor was full all night long! We couldn’t be happier with our experience with FreshTracks!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    YEA!

    I couldn't be happier to rock with Amanda and Chandler! We went through the pandemic postponement era together. All of the couples that I've shared that time with close to my heart. We stayed together and we made it. It's about love and perseverance, loyalty, patience, faith and that's beautiful.

    Amanda and Chanler like deep house music, tech house music, dope music! Their guests like 00's hip hop (who doesn't) and they LOVE 80's rock Anthems, I learned that on the fly. We made this eclectic party pop! She speaks to "incredibly organized" and "always available". Organization makes events, organization makes a dope DJ. "Always available" is about service, I'm about service.

    Amanda grateful for your words and your confidence! My absolute best to you and Chandler!

    Best DJ!! Rick went above and beyond for us

    Rick was one of our best hires for our wedding team. He was easy and fun to work with and always made himself available to us for questions throughout the planning process. You can tell he really loves his job and cares about each of his couples. We changed our plans last minute due to COVID and we were so happy Rick agreed to travel to our new venue out of state!

    On the day of the wedding everything went smoothly, Rick was awesome and set a great tone and energy for the day. Our dance floor was completely packed for the entire night! Everyone was raving about our DJ and many people told us our wedding was the most fun wedding they had ever been to. Rick really knew how to read and manage the crowd and kept everyone dancing until the venue made us shut down. We want to do it all over again!! Thank you Rick for an unforgettable day!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Lauren,

    You are welcome! Thank you for introducing me to Mcall Idaho, I will always hold that area and your wedding day dear to my heart.

    You and Sean are my ideal clients, I knew that from our meeting at the picnic table in Mammoth in 2020. When your plans started changing due to restrictions and challenges beyond our control we went to work, we communicated. We stayed open and flexible and we stayed together, to rock your wedding day! We valued one another and I cherish that.

    Cocktail hour floating on the docks, your Dance Floor pumping with energy and love (everyone on the floor, ties in the sky, Rose all day). Your wedding day was stunning!

    We couldn't have asked for better!

    There is nothing compared to Rick's contagious energy. I knew the first time I contacted him that he was the DJ for us! He makes the entire process a breeze and is so much fun to be around and work with. He goes out of his way to fo whatever he can to help and make sure that your day will go perfectly. I have recommended him to so many friends and will forever continue to do so. He is kind hearted and genuinely a great person to be around! Something that I feel is super important in a wedding vendor. He will forever be one of our favorite vendors and we are thankful to have had him at our wedding! Hire this guy, you WILL NOT regret it.

    One of a kind

    Rick was supposed to be our wedding DJ but due to covid 19 our wedding was cancelled. My husband and I decide to do a much smaller Event closer to home but while we were in the process of deciding what to do Rick was so kind understanding and helpful. He truly cares and listens to his clients. Prior to the wedding being cancelled and rescheduled he worked so well with me in finding the perfect songs I had wanted (which was not an easy task as I was very specific). He was patient with me and worked hard to find what I wanted. He has the best energy and I am super bummed that we were unable to use him at our wedding but can not recommend him more to anyone looking. His personality and passion for what he does is super hard to find. He graciously took a few phone calls with me as I was deciding what my best option for the wedding was. After deciding to have a much smaller wedding in a different location that would not allow an outside DJ I gave him the sad news, he was still helpful in telling me what speakers he recommends and he even made me playlist for all the time and work we put into song selections. Book him!! You will not find anyone else better!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Jennifur and Josh got married and Love Wins! That's Dope.

    Still if you are reading this review, please know that this one hurts for me. "Due to Covid 19". Sums up this review. Sums up a lot about the year 2020. Some things didn't work out. This was my ideal couple, we met, it was amazing, we had some solid prep work, few talks, worked diligently on Ceremony song selection. NAILED IT! Didn't get to their wedding day. This review is kind words from an amazing bride during times of turmoil. Working with people finding solutions even if they aren't favorable. Real people who care and respect one another. Love Wins.

    Hire this man if you want to the best wedding!!

    We had Rick DJ our wedding at Hayden’s Cabin in Mammoth Lakes, CA. Rick was the reason people were on the dance floor all night. We had so many guests come up to us during and after our wedding to let us know how much fun they had dancing. Because of how great the night went, the best man wanted to pay to Rick to travel to and DJ his wedding in SD this upcoming year. He had smooth transitioning from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to party music. He kept to our timeline, was organized and professional. He worked with us on our music playlist from the time we booked him until our wedding day. Rick made our wedding a big party, which was exactly what we wanted. Rick is easy to vibe with and great to work with on such a special day. We would definitely recommend Rick and pick him to DJ our wedding all over again. You won’t find a better DJ in Mammoth. It was the best night of our lives, thanks Rick!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    You are welcome KC, thank you for choosing me to be a part of your day and thank you for the kind words.

    I hope NY is treating you and your beautiful bride the best!
    Your wedding, WOW, the weather, the vibes, the crowd, the dance floor was ON! I've got you and Cassie as my homepage photo right now! Check it out!

    never ending party

    Rick was recommended by our venue, Convict Lake Resort. Five minutes into an introduction call with Rick, we knew he would be an amazing addition to the wedding. His energy and enthusiasm are contagious. We had a small wedding (only 75 people) and were worried that that dance floor would feel empty. Rick was amazing and 95% of our guests spent the entire night on the dance floor, only leaving the dance floor to grab a drink! Our guests could not stop talking about our amazing DJ! Rick was amazing to work with and helped us to select songs for our ceremony and reception. He had countless recommendations and so many playlists to share. Our wedding would not have been the same without Rick.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Sharing playlists, helping select tracks, energy and enthusiasm and rocking dance floors, thank you for your kind words Hayley. You and Jeff rocking with me on that conga line is rad!
    I'm so grateful to have been a part of your wedding day!

    Rick from FreshTracks was an absolute blast to work with. He was prompt, detailed and straightforward in all communication during the entire process. We couldn't have asked for a more seamless experience planning our ceremony/reception with FreshTracks.
    As for the big day...Rick made everyone feel welcome. His energy and brought (and kept) everybody on their feet! Can't thank him enough for being a crucial part of our big day!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Hey YO! So stoked to Party with this amazing couple. I was bordering overbooked when this groom contacted me. This was the last wedding I booked for 2019.

    Best DJ ever! Bangers! and Classics! Knows how to feel a room.

    DJ fresh tracks is the best DJ I’ve ever seen, our wedding at the mode dancing anyone any MR gas has ever seen and I still here to this day. We requested Bangerz and all classic and he delivered. DJ fresh tracks is a cool down to earth guy you would love to hang out with and grab a beer or coffee with. Our wedding at the dance floor jumping the whole time and we almost broke the dance floor we were jumping and stopping so hard. Everything old song was a hit and exactly what we wanted. He has the energy and spunk to keep you going all night and can read a room when he needs to town things down a notch going to slow song. He did a great job and I would recommend him for every wedding or even just stay another party we might have in the future. He dresses to impress looks good and is professional at the wedding as well. Leading up to the wedding he checked on us and made sure we had our say in our playlists and sent him what we liked and was very easy-going and gave us his feedback and helped us with the list of bridal party and everything that goes along with it. He helped announce speeches and everything else as well and did a great job
    Oh and we got our photo booth from him and was amazing accommodated all these custom features and things we wanted worked with us in every way even though it made it harder for him he went through it and kick butt and our photos turned out great and amazing. I will upload photos soon

    Did I mention best DJ ever! My knee still hurts!

    Rick is the MAN!

    From the first email, we knew Rick was our DJ. He is so enthusiastic. He really cares about how you want your reception from the first dance all the way until the end. He is friendly, easy to work with. The way he lets you choose exactly how you want your reception to go down takes away any stress. His track lists are easy to navigate. All you need to do is dance. We also purchased his photo booth. The operator in the photo booth is nice and accommodating. The props are great. This is your guy in Mammoth. Search no further.

    We had a wonderful meeting early on the planning stage and that really set the stage for our working relationship. You and Elisabeth were so organized and fun to work with! I'll never forget you crushing that NSYNC track, I'm thinking at some point you were a backup dancer/ vocalist for them ? Much love

    Best DJ there is!

    One of the easiest and best decisions we made during wedding planning was booking Rick from FreshTracks Entertainment as our DJ! If you are able to snag him, you will definitely be happy! From the start, Rick was very easy to work with and coordinate details with. Rick is extremely energetic and personable but still so professional! We had Rick for our ceremony and reception, and everything ran so smoothly. The ceremony sound was perfect and the reception was an awesome party that got everyone on the dance floor. At the last minute during our reception, it seemed that everyone wanted to go first for their toasts. I was worried for a split second that I’d have to figure out who was going in what order but Rick handled the situation right away at ease! I had no worries the second we booked Rick and he definitely delivered the perfect DJ experience! All our guest had such a blast on the dance floor and couldn’t stop raving about how great our DJ was and how it even looked like he was having the time of his life. You can really tell Rick goes out of his way to help make your day perfect and loves his job. You need to book FreshTracks!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Nicole! Your wedding, your crowd was so LIT! I will always hold you and Tyler dear to my heart as my most ideal clients. That AfroMan sing along moment, the bridesmaids and Tove Lo GETTING IT! You started that conga line! Trap and Hip Hop, Yea the late night slow jams were so powerful at your wedding. I knew I still wanted to incorporate your original first dance song idea because I knew you two had strong feelings about that track. I'm So happy that created a moment. Even your dinner list had such a different feel with that reggae vibe. I'm grateful to have been a part of your wedding and your pumping dance floor! Thank you so much for the kind words.

    Throws an Amazing Party!

    Richard was truly an invaluable person on, and before our wedding. We met with him in person and talked with him over the phone, where he helped us to plan songs, playlists, schedules, and routines for the ceremony and reception. My wife and I went into our wedding with very little knowledge on how to plan and execute a ceremony and reception. Richard is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, all while putting us at ease with his enthusiasm and support. He knew all of our other vendors, and worked alongside them to create a highly cohesive environment. Again, we truly could not have planned our wedding without his support. The reception was beyond amazing! Richard is a master at reading the crowd and the energy of the people. He kept the energy and excitement going all night long, which is not easy when you have a diverse crowd (and rowdy siblings!)! We received countless compliments after the wedding/reception, with all singing Richard's praises. Simply put, it was an amazing night with no dull moments. And we credit that to Richard Kunkel's Fresh Tracks Entertainment. You won't regret choosing him for your event!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Clients Review was so heartfelt here.
    Enthusiasm,
    Support,
    Vendor Cohesive environment! (This Can go unseen, it should go unseen, It's a difference maker and I work hard at it. I'm so grateful for Clint and Amy and their attention to this detail)
    This review warms my heart and Is all I strive for professionally.

    Best dj ever

    I have heard horror stories of DJ's not playing crucial songs, keeping the beat going, or mispronouncing names...etc. WITH FRESHTRACKS NONE OF THAT WILL HAPPEN, HE IS BY FAR THE GREATEST! Rick, made sure everything I wanted as the bride happened on the day of the wedding. Since this was my first wedding, he took the time to let me know how wedding days typically go, the timing, speeches, dances...etc, this was out of the kindness of his heart. He has a DJ Map that maps out the entire wedding and is incredibly helpful to go through and sets you up for complete success. My family, friends and I have some crazyyyyy energy, he ignited that fuse and we lit our wedding venue on fire with all our energy. It wouldn't have been the same wedding without him and for that I am truly grateful. Thank you Rick from the bottom of my heart!

    Rick is the Best!!!!

    Rick is top notch the "BEST" and truly made our wedding the party we envisioned. From the first call we had I knew he was our guy. Rick is super responsive and goes above and beyond . We had our first meeting on the mountain snowboarding, Rick spent time getting to know us which gave him the opportunity to pick out a tracklist for our day that fit us perfectly. Everyone was raving about how great the music selection was and he kept the party going! In addition he was soo accommodating we had chosen to give a performance singing a song and he did everything to make it happen perfectly.. You cant go wrong with Rick he is 100% on top of things, responsive and goes above and beyond. Thanks Rick for making sure our wedding was the best ever!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Kristen!

    We had so many fun meetings on the Phone and Shredding, YES!
    Your live performance was all time, day of rehearsal, is added stress to you wedding day and we crushed it! All in planning, all in the details. Traighe was so boss on the axe! The song was sexy and moving just like the two of you. I spent about 45 minutes trying to think what could i possibly play after that.... Thank you so much for having me and I can't wait to see you both in the Mountains and on the Dance Floor again soon!

    Fairytale wedding

    Rick!!! I can’t thank you enough for your amazing work and how easy it was for me to work with you. You always listened to me and provided guidance for music selection and always kept an upbeat personality no matter what even when I called you the night before the wedding to make changes and you were busy at another but still you responded when you were done! You left the dance floor constantly moving, my guests said, “they have never been to a wedding like mine, where the dance floor was never empty” that is a huge thing!!! Thank you Rick for hosting and DJ’ing not only my reception but also my ceremony. It feels so good in knowing your DJ and knowing that he can give you the party You want and more!! Thank you to infinity ♾

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Sylvia!

    The Hip Hop set during the last hour of your wedding was FIRE!
    The live performances were WOW, the Bridesmaids Slayed, and the HULA was so warm and perfect. We shouldn't advertise taking calls the night before your wedding at 11:30pm..... If other brides are reading this... no guarantees, you should be getting sleep at 11:30 the night before your wedding! It's about service and i'm grateful to have been a part of your wedding day Sylvia you are amazing!

    Above and beyond...a true hype man!

    If there's one thing I can say about Rick, it's that his energy is infectious. One thing you can be weary of is that people won't dance at the wedding or be too shy....that was certainly not the case for my wedding. Rick has an amazing ability to gauge the crowd and how they respond to certain music and make the right decision in music choice to keep the party going. Not only does he take the time to make sure he plays the right music, but he also assisted in the set up and break down for our ceremony that went off without a hitch. He is definitely so easy to work with and does everything to make the day go by seamlessly.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    YEA Chole!

    I'm so grateful to have been a part of your Wedding Day! Your Venue is my favorite, so special.

    Very best dj! Above and beyond our expectations!

    First, Rick was the #1 recommended DJ to book for your wedding. Each person we asked he was the go-to man. I was ecstatic when he had our date open! From our first conversation, he made this experience SO much easier with his music mapping and plan of the day. We are from out of town, so when we came into town in January, Rick asked to meet with us and we talked for over an hour. He really tried to get to know us and you could tell he really wanted to feel our vibes and see our vision for our wedding. HE NAILED IT! He helped me find the song to dance to with my dad which and had multiple playlists to share when I needed help! Rick brings so much energy, happiness, and GREAT music for all guests! Our guests did not stop complimenting how amazing our DJ was. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last! When our ceremony site had to be changed an hour before start time (due to wind), Rick acted like this had been the plan the entire time and never missed a beat! It made us not worry and we never questioned anything because Rick and the team had things completely under control. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect for us and Rick had a HUGE part in that. He's the type of person you feel like you've know for years. We will always be so grateful to have had him as a part of the biggest days of our life! I hope someday in our lives again we will need a DJ, Rick will be our guy!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Our first meeting at the coffee shop our connection was so seamless. When you say "feel like you've know for years" when I left our meeting I knew YOUR wedding was going to be amazing, we were meant to work together. Your video is my Favorite!
    You are my ideal clients, a dreamy couple and an inspiration for me to strive to serve couples that feel and love the way you do. When the two of you skipped cocktail hour to chill and relax and be together in the dining room, just you, I'll never forget that. Your wedding was absolutely perfect! I agree 1000%. The bride who's ceremony location changed an hour prior.
    Love for the win!

    Your search ends here

    DJ Rick for the WIN!!! Not just a DJ, he was an amazing MC. We can start off by saying that he kept everyone on their feet all night long, which he absolutely did, but what really needs to be highlighted is the attention, support, and direction he gives before, during, and after the event. The moment we met Rick, almost one year before our wedding, we knew instantly he was the guy for us. He was able to tap into our vision after just a few words of explanation. It felt like we had known him for years. It was the most comforting feeling to know that one element of your wedding (one of the bigger elements) was in the capable hands of someone we trusted. Throughout the year Rick kept in touch with us even going as far as giving us weather updates and helping with our event timeline. He was an integral part of preparing and pulling off a surprise live performance for the father daughter dance (which turned out amazing). Throughout the wedding Rick engaged with our guests on a level that even they thought he had been part of the family. We will never be able to express our deep appreciation for Rick’s up-beat, fun, energizing, and inviting personality. Maybe the biggest compliment is to share that one of our 11-year-old guests now wants to be a DJ when he grows up.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Tears in my eyes reading this one. WOW. For the win
    Nick and Cynthia!

    So much love and family and intimacy at your wedding, we were able to connect there. That was felt and I'm so grateful. For you, for this feedback, to have been a part of your wedding day, thank you.

    I remember the 11 year old, glasses, well mannered, he wanted me to play Sicko Mode and I didn't get there. I knew I let him down a little bit, but I could see he understood my reasoning.

    Please Send him my contact information. I'm stoked to talk with him about DJing. Its powerful and rewarding work, lets get him rocking!

    This review means so much. Thank you

    Best DJ - Made our wedding perfect

    When you’re planning a wedding, you have to make a lot of decisions…. One of the BEST decisions we made was hiring Richard (Rick) Kunkel with FreshTracks Entertainment. From our first initial meeting, when he didn’t shy away from the fact that I wanted more Rap and R&B than a typical wedding, I knew he was the one. Rick went above and beyond for us on our wedding day. He had to set up two different locations, outside, while providing his own power source. We utilized him and his perfect personality & charm to release our guests to dinner, to cheer us on during our bridal party flip cup matches and most importantly to keep our dance party going. My husband and I often reflect on the wedding and we constantly talk about how Rick was the perfect person for the job. If you’re looking for a DJ that is professional, talented, goes with the flow and most importantly is FUN, then Rick is your guy. Truly the best decision we made: our guests had an incredible time, our dance floor was always full and the music was perfect. Thank you again Rick!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    YES THESE PHOTOS YES! Dope! Thank you Heidi, Miss Lish,
    Thank you Killa Kyle! Post Malone said it Best Congratulations!
    Ideal Clients, your wedding was Huge, Dreamy, can't wait to see you both again.

    Best dj on the mountain!

    Our wedding was about 2 months ago we continue to receive tons of compliments of how much fun our was wedding because DJ Rick was so engaging, entertaining, accommodating to request and knows how to read the crowd! He even got my 93 year old grandma out on the dance floor!

    My husband and I love music BUT do not know artist names or song titles. Rick walked us through all our choices and definitely help us create the reception of our dreams! We highly recommend using FreshTracks Entertainment. 5 out of 5!

    Thank you so much Rick for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime! It definitely wouldn’t have been the same without you!

    RELIABLE, fun DJ, great photobooth

    Rick was everything I could have asked for in a wedding vendor. He listen to me and delivered exactly what I asked for. He was on time professional and required very little from me. Now that I have had a wedding I can tell you that one of the most valuable things you can find is somebody who can work well with little direction and still produce a quality products. Rick did just that and more. I spent very little time with Rick and gave him minimal help with our wedding music because I'm terrible with music. He was able to come up with a great set that not only spoke to our personal preferences but pleased the crowd as a whole. Rick was on time for our wedding and had everything set up on time.

    As a DJ he played all the songs we asked for, oncue, and he kept everyone on the dance floor. Besides our own satisfaction with him we've had plenty of gas come up and tell us how wonderful he was and how much they enjoyed him.

    We also rented his photo booth. It was up and running in the location that I requested despite its difficulty for his team. The photo quality was wonderful and the assistant was friendly and attentive. We had a small hiccup at the end of the night because it was 28 degrees out and the computer started to freeze, but I can hardly hold that against Rick and his team. All of the photos from the night were delivered promptly by mail in a thumb drive. I will cherish our goofy photos forever.

    I highly recommend Rick for your next event. Thanks for everything!

    Rick is amazing!!

    He is super professional and organized. He has the ability to adapt to his clients requests whether you want a raging party or a more subtle vibe.
    Several of our guests asked us how long we had been friends with Rick based on the connection we made in just a few months.

    Best DJ, Hands Down.

    Rick was hands down the best DJ I have ever seen at a wedding, and I am not just biased because it was my own. From the second we met ( or he spoke with anyone really) he made everyone feel so comfortable and at ease. A few guests have made comments about how they just thought we had a really fun friend, before they realized he was the DJ at the reception. I mean, people were up on tables dancing, that's how fun he kept the dance floor. During speeches he inserted the best sound effects, and our reception flowed so smoothly

    Simply put, if you want the best DJ in Mammoth, and your guests to tear up the dance floor, he is your guy!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    I love these pictures, YES, You and Austin getting low! And the Table dancing, YES, first i've seen at the venue and it felt so right! I remember the staff pulling people down off the tables. Legend! Thank you Sarah for having me and thank you for getting after it on the dance floor!

    Packed Dance Floor All Night!

    Rick was such an asset to our amazing wedding day and night!!! He was very responsive throughout the entire planning process, flexible in working with our requests , and such a fun guys to pump our guests the entire night!

    Our lakeside ceremony was very unexpectly windy and he worked very closely with the officiant both before and during the ceremony to give tips to make sure everyone could hear! Everyone heard everything (even with 30mph + winds! with his sound equipment and tips!!

    At the reception he was so good at reading the vibes in the room and played a great variety of songs we requested along with must have old school songs and new age beats!! The dance floor was packed the entireeeeee night!!! Now even after the wedding, our guests keep commenting on how great of a DJ he was! He definitely helped create the perfect night for us!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    This night, this couple, their family and friends, WOW. This was one one of the finest sets I've ever spun, this will always be dear to my heart. The organic and romantic start to this dance floor set the tone packed the floor and the wedding was lit. The ceremony, the flows, dreamy wedding. Thank you Katherine and Raul!

    FreshTracks Entertainment goes above & beyond!

    If you’re getting married in the Mammoth area, you HAVE to go with FreshTracks Entertainment! Rick is so much fun & keeps the wedding energy at an all time high! From the very beginning of asking for pricing packages and planning, he’s always very responsive and professional. He helped guide us through recommendations of songs for areas of the ceremony and reception that we didn’t even know we had to think about. All of our guests complimented us on how awesome the DJ was and how well he adjusted to the crowd. The fact that he has a wonderful relationship with the other top vendors (photographers / videographers) in the area really makes a difference because of their collaboration and synergy. Another plus - he offers photo booth add-ons for any of his packages with a bunch of backdrops to choose from. You won’t be disappointed with choosing FreshTracks!

    Rick was absolutely beyond amazing and one of the easiest of our vendors to communicate with even though we lived four hours away from our venue! From our very first meeting, he showed up punctual, full of energy and ready to work! Not only were my husband and I almost completely unsure of the direction we wanted to go, but we also are horrible at names of songs and artists! This was no problem for Rick, he took no time in getting to know what we were hoping to accomplish with our music and even added his input as to what would make our experience even greater! This was all from our very first visit together!
    As we continued to collaborate on our music mapping, Rick was never more than a step away! He offered to send ideas, and play lists that he felt suited our needs and was always open to questions via email, phone call and text! The communication was unbelievable considering we were basically planning a wedding via emails! About two weeks before the wedding we were hammering out all of the details and decided to move the dance floor outside so we could enjoy a party under the stars! Rick had a back up plan for everything in case of the weather and he was always ready to change up anything that needed to be!
    Then came the big day! Rick showed up promptly on time and had everything set up and ready to go! We were beyond blown away and my guests still cannot stop talking about how amazing our Dj was! From the ceremony music to the grand entrances to the dance floor, he did not miss a beat! He followed all of our requests and stayed away from anything we were hesitant on, and still was able to work in some amazing suggestions from our guests! The highlight of the evening turned out to be the dance floor under the stars! Rick rocked the party all night long, to the point where no one wanted to leave, but rather continue dancing!

    I would recommend Rick time and time and time again! At this point, I am just looking for another reason to hire him!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Hello Kristin and thank you for the kind words. This wedding was one of my all time favorites. I knew we connected musically and had similar tastes. I knew we were going to be outside, I decided to bring an extra sub and just go for it on the audio, (some venues don't appreciate this, props Mammoth Mountain) the sound quality and the energy on the dance floor was high. I could feel how close of a group you all were. I felt the lighting was amazing, simple just market lights and stars. Then there was Mr Roboto, An impromptu live tribute dance battle by the groom and a close friend, WOW. So happy to be a part of Kristin and Josh's wedding celebration. Thank you.

    Such amazing energy the whole night! Really gets the party going. Does everything he can in preparation to make sure he nails your music style and preference so that you really have the best time.
    If you’re looking for a DJ in the Mammoth area hire Rick. Don’t even think about using anyone else, you’ll regret it. He was so amazing to work with and played all my jams all night! Made our wedding so much fun!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    And Sick Jams they were! Ustina and Anthony have rad taste in music and we connected there right away! Organized laid back couple with Snow industry background and shred style. Dreamy couple. How about that "Barbara Striesand" Game Changer. FUN. Thank you USTINA!

    Rick is the greatest! He made our very DIY party feel like there was a pro running it!! Rick also helped give us other recommendations that were helpful. He is attentive and responsive and lots of fun!!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    There was a pro running it! Thank you so much Laura! As a Master of Ceremony day of event flow and overall impression is paramount. Timeline execution, spotlight moments, announcements, organization, that's a big part of what I do. I use behind the scenes communications with meticulous details and planning to execute. Then a front and center microphone delivery equals Master of Ceremony. I'm always striving to deliver and improve on this aspect of my service. Thank you for the kind words. I'm very grateful to have been a part of your amazing wedding celebration and Thank you for choosing my services on your wedding day!

    Rick was the best DJ ever for our Mammoth wedding!! We had one in person meeting and a couple phone meetings to make sure everything would go smoothly on wedding day. We filled out a "wedding overview" and "music mapping" worksheet that helped the planning go flawlessly. Wedding day was sooooo fun with Rick playing the music we had suggested and really reading the crowd!! EVERYONE was up and dancing, from the bridal party to our grandparents. Rick was born to be a DJ!! You can't go wrong choosing him for your wedding!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    I am humbled and grateful to do what I do, to bring others joy. Bringing Dance. Creating Moments.
    Brita is a dream bride. Your words "Born to" ring home. To be a part of your day, genuine and spectacular couples and families like yours, where I was meant be, thank you for your kind words.

    Rick is AMAZING!! Easy to talk to, detailed and perceptive towards what you want to hear at your wedding. We met with him several times and even had last minute changes that he had no issues with. He had great suggestions and we had the best time at the wedding. Every person was dancing and having a blast. Massive Conga line included! He does a great job and really enjoys doing it!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Yea! We lit it up. That Conga line was legendary, the ground was shaking. As long as live and love, the couples I serve and the moments we all cherish, that's the best. Tim holding you 10 feet in the air, you were glowing, almost floating "Take me home tonight"! Dreamy. Thank you Kayla.

    Stop looking and book Rick as your DJ!! He is seriously the best out there. Rick is full of energy, personality, and knows his music.. He even has a cool feature where guests can request songs for your wedding. All of our guests loved him and music was on point !! Everyone was dancing until the end of the night. We loved working with Rick because he gave us ideas and suggestions on areas we weren't sure of. He also offers different wedding packages you can choose from different price ranges. Look no further because Rick is your DJ!!!! Million stars if we could :) Thank you Rick for making The Morgan Wedding unforgettable!!

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Morgan wedding was off the hook, that last hour was legendary! I thought the lights looked awesome. April killed the dance floor! I knew from the requests and our work together some of the vibes you were looking for and we took it there, deep, so amped. Thank you so much for choosing me on your wedding day. I knew from our first meeting you had a particular style and taste, I knew we could get it. Congratulations Morgan's!

    If I had to pick one vendor that MADE our wedding the amazing memory it was, it would be Rick. Not everything with our wedding went perfect, but with Rick bringing it all home it didn't matter. This dude is clearly more than just a "wedding DJ", and we just felt so fortunate the Mammoth area had him. From the creative transitions, the finger on the pulse of the crowd, the instant ability to read our taste, and the spine to say no to rogue wedding guests trying to sway the playlist, you will right away realize this is not Rick's first rodeo, and that's a good thing. Add in the fact that he is extremely personable and really makes you feel like your wedding is all that's on his mind, and I can't think of what else you would want.

    Our wedding was at Convict Lake, and we used him for both the ceremony and reception. He nailed both, including the first dance. Just totally on top of it. We also paid him a bit extra to move the party at 10 PM to the bar, which was an insanely good deal. When you consider what a wedding at Convict Lake costs, the extra few hundred bucks to keep the party rocking for a couple more hours shouldn't even be an question. Just do it.

    The bottom line is if I had to throw a party ANYWHERE and needed a DJ to get people moving, Rick would be the first name that would come to my mind. Dollar for dollar he was by far the best value we got out of any vendor at our wedding. I hope he doesn't raise his prices, but he easily could and I would still recommend him in a heartbeat. If he is available and willing to DJ your wedding, be it in the Eastern Sierras or anywhere else, stop thinking and book him.

    DJ Richard was great to work with, he blew our minds mixing from all genres, going from country to pop and all over. He played the right tracks for the special moments and kept the dance floor full all night. As a former DJ, I appreciated him taking time for all the guest requests and actually playing them! He was professional, very responsive and truly passionate about making sure the bride and groom got exactly what they wanted.

    So amped on this set, an instant all time favorite. Brian and Maura are a legend in love, a 20 year love story. We all had a connection. I knew he had a DJ history, our passion and appreciation for music was alive and well, dance floor was Rad. So much love for Brian Maura and their amazing friends and family from around the country.

    Rick was the best DJ we could've have asked for! He was so organized leading up to wedding, he had created a music map that really helped me understand how many songs we needed and what the songs where going to be for. This seriously helped make the experience stress free and fun! Rick totally understood the type of people my husband and I were and picked the perfect music for our wedding! He read the dance floor so well, no one was ever sitting... what more could you want for your wedding??

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Krist-lee and Chris are surely my ideal clients and it was such a great pleasure to be a part of this celebration. There was so much energy on this dance floor!! There was a dinner track I selected to play, Chris and a groomsman were talking about the exact track just days prior to the wedding, somehow I played it, connections, moments, meant to be. Thank you so much for choosing my services and the kind words.

    My now hubby & I were married on top of MM April 5th , not only did Rick provide music he looked steller in his grey sporty suit & snowboard boots lol our guest were impressed with his passion for his music & desire to please our crowd ! That parlayed over to the reception at the Village !!!! I to didn't think we had a big dancing crowd , I was proved wrong haha . Rick has so much enthusiasm & energy to give a crowd and they responded until the end of the night !!!!! My husband isn't a big party person or drinker & when I saw him singing & dancing along side his friends it put a smile on my face all night long ! I don't think I've ever seen him have so much fun & partisapate the way he did that night !!!! Thank You Rick for giving us such wonderful memories ❤️ I personally don't remember all of it as brides get caught up in hugs & kisses & greeting friends & family ! But.... I do know I was not worried our friend & family were not having a fabulous time . Best night , Best music !!!!! Memories of the heart for a lifetime ! Thank You my dear new friend !!! Hope to do some riding with you next year hehe I hear you shread hehe

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Yea Diana and Johnny,

    Diana looked amazing in the fur shawl and her and Johnny slashed down the mountain following their ceremony! I almost lost a few fingers that day playing the processional in my Grey suit and snowboard boots. If these pictures don't tell the whole story winds were touching 40mph and temps were at the 30 degree mark. I will always remember the crowd singing and swaying and embracing one another for a few separate tracks as the night came to a close. Amazing wedding! Yes Diana you and I should catch some FreshTracks on the slopes on day!

    What can we say about Rick? He was amazing. He brought our wedding to life. We initially told him that we expect the reception to be more of a cocktail hour vibe because we felt our guests were not much of dancers - us included. He proved us wrong. With his energy and song choices, we and 95% of our guests were on the dance floor. We had an amazing night. Rick was friendly, accommodating, and organized. I highly recommend FreshTracks Entertainment and their services.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    When Don and Christie contacted me we talked about the laid back cocktail vibe and a mellow elegant evening. Things don't always go according to plan and you have to stay open to the moment. I could feel the energy in the room during the early hours of the event, I knew we could get it lit. We got it going on and this intimate white winter wedding was inspired on the dance floor.

    Rick is amazing!!! We had him DJ our wedding in July 2017 and had an amazing time. All of our guests had a blast. Rick was so patient with us, we didn't finalize some of our songs until the day before the wedding. He was incredibly responsive to emails and eager to hop on the phone if necessary. Highly recommend FreshTracks!!!

    Rick was the best wedding DJ anyone could ask for, and certainly the best I’ve ever seen! He kept people dancing all night without a single lull in the action. Months later, guests are still mentioning how great he was and asking whether he does events down in SoCal. He takes such obvious joy and pride in his work, and the result is an incredible time for everyone!

    Rick was the perfect DJ/MC! Super fun to work with, high energy, positive, and most importantly, really excellent at what he does!
    From the beginning, I knew that Rick was the right choice for us. He has such a great working knowledge of the different music genres and was extremely organized with his music mapping software. All of these factors came together to make the music planning process less of a chore and more of something that we actually had a great time doing. Rick was easily accessible by phone and knows the Convict Lake venue better than any other DJ. He's your man.

    We had some unique music requests from Rick for our wedding and he handled them with ease. His timing with music is so on point and he made the crowd laugh with his occasional musical interjections during funny parts of the toasts. I ended up wanting my own recording of a classical piece to be included in the wedding ceremony, and Rick was able to accommodate easily. He also helped me work and figure out how to interface with the movie projector so that I could connect my own computer at the reception site for a slideshow. Basically, his technical knowledge of things "technology-related" will be a huge asset to you.

    During the actual reception, I could not believe how many people remained on the dance floor. DJ Rick was consistently keeping the tracks "fresh" just like his namesake. Again, we have a pretty diverse genre list of things that we like ranging from country to latin/hip-hop beats. Rick was also fantastic at taking requests from the crowd and gauging the types of songs that would keep the most people on the dance floor. I haven't seen a wedding in a long time with that many people dancing and I attribute that to the upbeat and fresh tracks from our awesome DJ. Rick also had so much energy during the night and our guests who interacted with his during the night complimented his high energy style and overall fun vibe that he brought to the night. Thank you Rick!!!

    Raf and Em's wedding this fall, one of my favorite sets all year! We really connected on a some musical tastes and this crowd was down for a wild ride. We got the energy high! Raf is a true renaissance man, a pleasure to work with he and I coordinated some fun dramatic moments throughout the evening and got some laughs and tears along the way. So grateful to work with couples like Raf and Em.

    You will not go wrong with Rick! He provided sound bites on the spot during our wedding reception speeches. I mean, you can't beat that. He is so fun to work with and provided a fun atmosphere and entertainment for the night. My guests loved him! I can't recommend him enough!!! 10/10

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you for the kind words Valerie. The chicken story during the speeches was hilarious. Glad I could contribute with some comedic timing. Kevin's breakdancing and boyband background surely proved amazing!

    Rick was so easy to work with from the early planning stages through the end of our wedding reception. Rick went above and beyond to make sure that everyone at our wedding was having an amazing time. I was constantly receiving compliments from our guests about how great Rick was and how much fun they had at our wedding. He set the bar for the quality of entertainment! 10/10, I would most definitely recommend Rick to anyone who wants their event to go flawlessly.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    "It's going down, i'm yelling Timber" My man! Timber's wife works in weddings and she has a rad style. She knew exactly what she wanted and I was stoked she chose FreshTracks. We connected musically during our meetings right away and they were very organized. On their wedding day this dance floor was ready to go... I felt the energy coming from the crowd like a tidal wave during the cake cutting! We had the dance floor literally jumping during the cake cutting! Party went so hard off the gates we had to put a cooler on to get into the parent dances. We got into some deep Hip Hop moments, I thought the dance floor lights were a fun add with this crowd. Beautiful Couple, Fun friends and family, Thank you so much.

    Rick is by far the best DJ I could've ever hired. He did amazing from the time I first spoke with him until the wedding. All my questions were always answered. If I wanted a recommendation for a song he always sent a full playlist of recommendations. The day/night of the wedding went perfect. No hiccups at all. He keeps the crowd going all night long & is very upbeat & down to earth. I would highly recommend hiring him! He's the BEST & he will make your night run smoothly.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Melissa and Brian! The Style and Flow on this wedding was so unique and beautiful. This couple was in madly in love and their story was so apparent throughout their day. the Grooms vows made me laugh and Cry! THE DANCEFLOOR was insane! So much energy with this hot young crowd, and the father of the groom was a dance floor wild man, so much fun.

    Best. DJ. Ever.

    DJ Rick is not only a legend in Mammoth (I legitimately didn't book my venue until I confirmed he was available), but he's perhaps the best wedding DJ in the world. How do I know? 1) My very international guests could not stop talking about his fresh tracks, often asking "where did you find him?!" and 2) the entire evening culminated with everyone on the dance floor, jumping up and down and dancing like I had never seen them dance before (my husband included!). Thanks to DJ Rick, my wedding turned into a giant dance party and the best night of our lives.

    Beyond his insane spinning skills, Rick is hilarious, responsive, organized, thoughtful, and incredibly adaptable. He was an absolute pleasure to correspond with and incredibly timely in his responses. He had a clear plan of what songs we needed to choose for what parts of the day, he had an excellent strategy for managing energy flow throughout the many hours, and he was able to strike an incredible balance between generations of music and my husband's (country/coffeehouse) and my (hip hop/dance) varying tastes in music.

    We also rented a photo booth from him (I think this is a new business for Rick) and our guests seemed to love it! We never made it to the booth, though- too busy dancing. :)

    Rick provided all of the above at a great price.

    If DJ Rick is available, book him immediately. You will never regret it.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    I can't say enough about Abby and Josh and this amazing and inspiring Double Eagle wedding. I recall the first time Abby contacted me so clearly, I knew they were my "ideal" client. Our communications were always such a joy and left my day for the better. Our communications were plenty. With guests online song requests included (well over 100) Abby, Josh and I had over 220 communications in total.
    I got to know Abby and Josh. I got to know their guests and their music through those requests. Our tastes in music and overall mountain style created a perfect parallel. On their wedding day it may have been the finest set I've ever played. From the ceremony and guests asking "what was that song"? The speeches and the Best Mans San Francisco stories. To the deck rattling, Bride stomping Zedd closer, WOW. I will be forever grateful to Abby and Josh for choosing my services on their wedding day.

    It was super important to us to have a good dance party at our wedding, and it was very hard to convince my husband to hire a DJ to take the reins. But once we met Rick, we knew it was a perfect match! Rick was super responsive to us throughout the process, and always happy to hop on a call or FaceTime to help us plan the flow of events and give thoughts on music selection. He can curate the whole day for you, or take what you give him and run with it. He also has a fun music request function, which my friends took advantage of (sometimes to a problematic extent...who needs that much Janet Jackson??)

    On the day of, Rick got the party started. He was able to weave in oldies, disco, 80's pop, 90's hip hop, and indie music seamlessly to create a rocking party. The night ended with our friends and family swaying in a circle around us as we danced, followed by a conga line (DJ Rick joined in of course). I highly recommend this guy for your music and entertainment--you'll have everyone talking about what a fun party it was!

    DJ RICK!!!! He is the man! We had heard rumors from various wedding planners in the Mammoth Lakes area that DJ Rick was the best, so we snagged him as soon as we could and we are very glad we did. We had multiple face-to-face meetings with him in the months before our wedding, and we also talked over FaceTime and email, so we knew that he was committing a lot of time to really customizing the wedding music for us. He is very responsive to email and we found it was very helpful to shoot him a quick message whenever we thought of a song we'd like to hear.

    The music was perfect. We had a country-themed wedding and DJ Rick found a good balance between country music and classic wedding hits everyone loves. The dance floor was definitely rocking.

    FreshTracks Entertainment's reply:

    Yea Rachel!
    Your wedding was all time, a most amazing couple! Professionally your wedding exemplified everything I strive for in custom music. I'm not naturally a huge country music guy. "Play Something Country" was the drop of the night for me, so RAD! Through our communications and meetings we really got to know one another. I felt like because of that I was able create a musical energy and timing that really fit you and Andrew. One my challenges with having a wedding go wild like that so early in summer, we set the bar. I'm so joyed to have been a part of your love story, thank you for the kind words. Kick your Boots up!

    Richard was awesome. I was planning my wedding from out of state and he was more than helpful. He was willing to do extra trips to the venue to check it out for us. He made the wedding flow so smoothly and had everyone on the dance floor all night. He made sure to play the songs we requested at the perfect times. The DJ was a huge deal to me and have never experienced him in person I was super nervous when we booked but he did NOT disappoint. I would pay to have him travel to DJ your events! GREAT EXPERIENCE!!

    I would have to agree Rick is the best! He can accommodate the most eclectic music tastes I was able to think of. We had him play everything from oldies, outlaw country, 90s hip hop to my favorite Die Antwoord! If your going to go with a dj then just stop looking and hire Rick.

    From the moment I heard Rick's voice on the phone I knew he was going to be perfect. High energy, positive vibe, and a great knowledge of all types of music - even the rarest of stuff. My wedding attendees and myself mostly hail from NYC and LA, and I was worried I would have trouble finding a musically savvy DJ. This was not an issue.
    We spoke on the phone, and then he sent me a music mapping outline, where I could include as much - or as little - as I wanted. He took this outline and not only did what I asked, but picked up my style and musical taste and made it even better. He was able to drop an exact moment of an exact song I wanted right after the first kiss, and all while standing outside in the middle of winter (yes, I had an outdoor winter wedding, and he still pulled it off for us).
    He met with us the day before the wedding, and made everything very personal. He really got to know us in that short time, and I can tell he did because his music literally blew my mind. He fed off the crowd hour to hour, he modified what he was playing as the night went on to fit the energy, and I got more questions about "where I flew my DJ in from" than imaginable!
    Besides the music, he kept our wedding on track and basically ran the whole thing - grand entrances, seating, first dances, introductions, speeches - he was a complete professional.
    As a group of people who REALLY take our music experiences seriously, everyone was impressed by him. I am not trying to boast about my own wedding, but I am pretty sure my wedding had the best music I have ever heard. And my guests agreed.
    Overall, if you have Rick as your DJ, it doesn't matter if the flowers are gorgeous, if the linens are white, or if the cake gets delivered - your wedding is going to be amazing, just like mine was. He truly was the key and most central element to what turned out to be the best day and night of my life. And I will always be thankful to him for that. The. Very. Best.

    Rick was AMAZING!! From the first day we spoke with him on the phone until the last song at our wedding. He is super helpful , thorough and responds super quick to any questions you have! I had many amazing venders the day of my wedding but,Rick really reached and stretched the entire time to make it exactly what we wanted. He was a party starter and his energy never reached low. We had a blizzard extreme weather wedding and he still managed to get all his equipment up on the gondola, in the snowy blizzard and did it will enthusiasm! If your looking for your wedding dj search no more! Rick is a ROCKSTAR!!!
