We are all open format, club style DJs. Open format means that we play music from different genres and cohesively mix them to create one live mix of music that appeals to people from different generations and backgrounds. As club style DJs, we don’t believe in passively mixing. You can expect our DJs to play the same way DJs play at your favorite club. Infact we are likely to play close to 30 songs an hour once your party really gets going!
We specialize in private invite only events. However, most of our DJs have public bookings as well. So if your DJ has a public gig lined up, you are more than welcomed to attend. Attending another brides wedding is no – no for us.
We’ve played hundred of venues around our headquarters in Chicago. If by chance we haven’t played your venue, we will definitely schedule a walk through with you to discuss logistics and set up concerns with you.
Are you looking for the musical flexibility of a DJ combined with the sound, look and feel of a live band? We can help you to create your own Hybrid band. Let us know what instruments are most important to you. We have many satisfied customers that selected our drummers to play along side our DJ. You can also use multiple instruments to accompany your DJ. We also have professional vocalists as well.
Typically all equipment is included in our published pricing. We do offer rental stages for clients who want to enhance their entertainment presentation.
Each package includes dance floor lighting. We offer enhanced lighting options in our higher tiered package along with other cool lighting and effects that can be purchased a la carte.
We are really proud to be industry trendsetters in this department. We know offer our wedding couples professional A/V services through our partners at Sights and Sounds Productions. They are a full service company that handles all of our sound, lighting and set up needs. This gives your DJ the ability to focus on whats most important, the music.
Our A/V team has attended hundreds of private events and they know how a room should sound. As your event progresses, our sound engineer checks the sounds from various parts of the room to make sure that the sound is balanced and the volume is set optimally.
We dress properly for the occasion. At weddings we are always sharp and classy. For more casual events, we are stylish, hip and trendy. We take how we look seriously.
All of our private event clients will receive an online planning account that allows them to create a must playlist with their personal requests. At the actual event, your DJ will graciously take any requests given and play them when the time is right. At no time will we compromise your packed dance floor to accommodate a request that might not fit in the moment.
No, it is our policy to only do one event each day In the event your DJ falls ill, you will contact the person listed in your agreement (item 10) and they will immediately arrange for a replacement DJ from our in house roster or from our network of DJs. The process is transparent to you and your substitute DJ will have all of the same information that your regular DJ has via your online planning account. if we have a wedding booked. We like to be focused on your special day.
Deposits are non refundable. If for any reason you decide to cancel, you can use your deposit as a credit towards another event that will take place up to twelve months after your notice of cancelation. Event credits can also be shared with someone else.
We don’t do pre planned sets. It’s virtually impossible to know what a crowd will like before seeing and feeling that crowd. We do accept a must playlist from our clients. Our goal is to be in the moment and read the crowd and select songs that compliment the event.
He was amazing!!! The whole process of booking and meeting was smooth, and he was very helpful and patient throughout. I was nervous whether guests would dance on a Sunday afternoon, but DJ Duerell took care of that!!! He had daytime party vibes and everyone loved it!! Our big day wouldn’t have been the same without him!!!

Duerell was a great DJ to work with! He was very flexible with us on our date, very communicative, and he listened to our music requests. He had great taste and picked good songs from our more vague instructions (an hour of ska music). It was a shame we weren't allowed to have a dance floor because Duerell definitely would have gotten people to dance on it! He also did a great job MCing the wedding's first half, and his photobooth was great. Thanks again Duerell!
