dave's DJ work
My passion for music began with DJ'ing clubs and large college parties in Boston, Newport, Providence, and the Cape. Very soon I moved into DJ'ing Weddings, making virtually no money back then - but IT WAS A BLAST! :) I just stuck with it simply out of the love for what I was doing, and the career just came.
Starting working clubs in 1992, more than 30 years later I still love DJ'ing Weddings and events throughout New England, NY/NJ, and Miami.
If you are looking for a professional, easy going / low key, excellent DJ who knows good music very capable at motivating guests through the music selections and sequence - not the microphone - AND KEEPING guests on the dance floor, that's me.
I always use top of the line sound and music files. Never any stolen or "borrowed" music files.
You could just connect your phone and hit Spotify or Sirius. Or, you could allow me to come provide excellent music selections customizing my playlists for you and your guests!
Whether a backyard weekend party, the Boston Marathon finish line celebration, Boston University's Back Bay Ball, a between-building-alley rave in South Beach until 5am, or a South Beach beach all-day party - all of which I've done more than once - I'm always so thrilled to be there bringing the thump to the bouncing crowd!
No frills, no DJ line dance instruction, no karaoke, no DJ jokes, no DJ singing, no DJ sparkly vests. Just good music and solid Wedding-day event music planning.
modernArtistry - Music Planning
Weddings and corporate events, highly detailed pre-Event planning is the only way to allow the Event itself to feel like it has no structure. Then musically reading the crowd is critical.
Clubs on the other hand, it's all about feel - knowing good music, sensing the crowd, and knowing how to blend.
I miss the club days, incredible memories.
