About me

Thirty years of reading rooms.

I started DJing at sixteen. Three decades later the kit has changed beyond recognition and the job hasn’t changed at all.

The bit you can’t buy off a spec sheet.

Anyone can own good speakers. What takes thirty years is judgement: knowing when to hold a song back, spotting which table will get up first, hearing a room start to tire before it looks tired.

I’ve played everything from intimate weddings to large corporate parties, and the principle is the same in both. Turn up early, learn the room, then play for the people actually in it rather than the set you planned in the car.

Before your day we’ll talk properly — usually on a video call. Your must-plays, your absolutely-nots, the moments that matter, the family politics if there are any. By the time I arrive I know your wedding.

Reviews

What people say.

★★★★★

He was given an indication of the type of music for a crowd of about 100 and did an amazing job of sticking to the brief whilst reading the room perfectly — the dance floor was packed all night. He even visited the venue in advance to check logistics.
