Why Choose Me

Not All DJs Do The Same Thing

There are two types of DJ hire companies in Auckland, and many years ago I had to choose what type of service I wanted to deliver.

I could try to book as many events as possible on any given weekend, then do whatever it took to cover those committed events.  That would mean finding a DJ, any Dj, of any level, any experience, and rely on them to turn up to weddings, corporate events or private parties.  I would then have to hope those DJs don’t get bored, sick, or better offers and cause irreversible stress for brides, corporate clients, venues, and party planners.

No thanks!  Instead of cramming as many bookings as possible into every weekend, whatever the outcome, I choose to work with high-quality clients at memorable events, one celebration at a time.

 

Nothing Lost in Translation

Hire me, get me.  No contractors, trainees, or inexperienced DJs.  Every phone call, every message, every email, every detail is handled by me.

We can meet in person or virtually before you make final decisions on who to trust with your entertainment.  I take in what’s most important to you about your event, and I deliver what matters most to you on the day.

 

Choosing Music, Sound, and Lighting

No, you don’t have to fill in music lists in apps or websites.  Tell me what you DON’T want to hear and I’ll look after the rest.

Similarly with the equipment.  I will bring the right audio for your needs, and this varies depending on the event and the venue.  Dance area lighting is included, with upgrades options we can discuss ahead of time, again depending on requirements.  Talk to me about uplighting to transform the bare aesthetics of your venue.

My exclusive, personal service and guaranteed standards always apply, regardless of the type of event and no matter who my client is:

  • Exclusive “There-in-Person” guarantee.
  • No employees or contractors, so you will not be sent a less experienced DJ that you have never met.
  • First contact to last dance, you deal with Nick Logan, owner and sole DJ of the company.
  • I will not invite strangers to your event for a “demo”.
  • I will not transfer or “sell” your entertainment to another DJ company.
  • I will be set up at the specified time, and start on time.
  • I only use professional equipment, with backup on site (just in case).
  • I will be dressed professionally.
  • I do not drink or smoke.
  • You will be in control of the volume

Worth Celebrating Right

Weddings Cost More?

You’ve probably heard the term “Wedding Tax” regarding prices and wedding planning. And I get it.

It looks like I charge more simply because it’s a wedding.  Well, yes – I do.

But why? 

Simply put, weddings done right require a lot more input.  I’m not just turning up and pressing play for your first dance. I meet with my couples before they even finalise a DJ, and again before the wedding day as many times as they think we need to.  I ask questions, I learn about them, their history, how they met, how their timeline works, and offer enhancements or advice based on their ideas and goals.  I often know how they met, along with key information about them, their parents, the wedding party, and other professional vendors helping on the day.

I edit their ceremony songs by lengthening or shortening them for perfect timing, removing lyrics that maybe just don’t sit right with them, or extend songs to reassure couples it won’t fade out early.

I’m at the venue hours before any guest arrives, and other than the venue staff I’m the last one to leave at the end of the night.

This level of service certainly isn’t for everybody.  Most DJs don’t do this.  Many couples don’t see the need for this either.  And that’s fine, that’s why multi-DJ booking agencies exist, choosing to focus on booking as many events per weekend as possible.

I prefer to work with awesome clients and do things that the turn-up-press-play DJ booking agents can’t offer.

What’s the most popular “DO NOT PLAY” song?

When it comes to your event, it's important that the songs you DON'T want to hear are listed. Don't put too much time into that list, it should be almost an instant response if you're asked to list 3 or 4 styles, artists or specific songs that you just can't stand....
