WHAT IT TAKES TO BE AN EVENT DJ


As an event DJ, it's essential to keep the energy level high throughout the night to ensure that guests are having a great time. In this article, we'll explore the different ways DJs keep the energy level high and how they tailor their music to meet their clients' needs.



Understanding Your Music Preferences One of the first things that DJs do to keep the energy level high is to talk with the customer and find out their interests. DJs will ask about what music you like and what your guests are into. This is crucial as it sets the tone for the night and ensures that everyone is on the same page.

Avoiding the Music You Don't Want to Hear Another important aspect of keeping the energy level high is knowing what not to play. DJs will ask about what music you don't want to hear to avoid any awkward or uncomfortable moments during the event.

Setting the Right Mood DJs also ask about the kind of mood you want to set for the event. Do you want a laid-back vibe, or do you want people to dance all night? This information is crucial as it helps DJs pick the right songs and create the right atmosphere.

Managing the Energy Flow DJs will also ask about the energy flow throughout the night. Do you want a slow start and a big finish, or do you want to start off strong and maintain the energy throughout the night? By managing the energy flow, DJs can create a seamless experience for their clients and their guests.

Aligning Music with the Event Schedule DJs will get a schedule of events to align the music with the event. This is especially important for weddings, where different types of music are needed for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. By aligning the music with the event schedule, DJs can ensure that the energy level stays high throughout the night.

Prompting You with Ideas If you're not sure what kind of music you want, DJs will prompt you with ideas. They may suggest songs or genres that fit your taste or the theme of your event. Understanding Age Ranges

Finally, DJs will ask about age ranges. This is important as different generations have different tastes in music. By understanding the age ranges of your guests, DJs can play the right songs to keep everyone on the dance floor.
