Meet your DJ
I’m Carl. Let’s make it a night you love.
I love seeing friends, families and different generations find their way onto the same dancefloor. It starts with understanding you, then choosing the right music for the people in front of me.
- You deal with me throughout. From your first enquiry to the night itself, you know who your DJ is.
- We plan the music together. Favourite artists, must-plays and songs to avoid give me your starting point.
- I handle the practical details. We agree timings, sound, lighting and venue requirements before the event.
My STAR approach: Scan. Track. Adapt. Respond.
I watch the room, follow its energy and move between genres, decades and requests as your guests respond.
Before you enquire
A few things you might be wondering.
Still weighing up your options? Here are the practical answers to help you take the next step.
Ask Carl a question →How much does DJ hire cost?
Your quote depends on the date, venue, playing times and sound and lighting you choose. Explore the packages and pricing, or send your details for a personal quote.
Can we choose the music and make requests?
Yes. Share the songs, artists and decades you love, plus anything you want to avoid. I use that direction and your guests’ responses to shape the music throughout the night.
Which areas do you cover?
I cover the West Midlands, Shropshire and Staffordshire, including Birmingham, Wolverhampton and Telford. UK travel is available: tell me where you’re planning your event.
Can I enquire before the venue is confirmed?
Yes. Send your date, the area you’re considering and what you’re planning. Let me know which details are still to be confirmed so we can discuss the next step.
Will you be our DJ, and is equipment included?
Yes, you book Carl and deal with me personally. Professional sound and lighting are included according to your chosen package, with setup and pack down handled for you. See professional standards and venue information.
