As long as I'm MENTALLY & PHYSICALLY fit, I'll continue to DJ because I'm still obsessed with recorded music and everything else about this line of work or hobby. I had no idea when I started making my own mixed tapes that I would make DJing my career. I often wonder how many millions of listens...

That's fantastic Taso. Thanks for sharing your philosophy. I don't rely on the internet or social media to promote my services. That's why I don't pay for wedding directories or any other pay to play directories. I don't have videos or pics on social media, only the my mixes I choose to upload...

What's the matter with you? You never heard of the "stay young forever" medicine called Ozempic? :djsmug:

It's sounds to me that if Tik Tok or the Internet is taken away, that you would still do well, because as has been already stated, you serve a specific niche and your new clients come primarily from referrals and not necessarily your social media influence. I get it! That's how it was done...

I doubt that even the "Great Taso" can play whatever he wants at a wedding reception. He, like me, probably has some leeway, but I doubt that he chooses every song for his client's weddings. He's credible, but not so incredible to neglect his client's song choices. Taso is a wonderful person and...

My clients dictate what they want and the vibe that they want to create and sometimes they do allow me to take requests. my Latin American Wedding clients love interactive entertainment.

Interactive line dance songs have been around since the 90's and I can tell you that many experts called those songs "cheesy" yet they are still requested at most weddings and events. It's up to the client if they want their DJ to take requests or not play any requests at all. Most people know...

A second laptop with the software and all the music you need for the event is a good start. Oh, I forgot, invest in some quality powered speakers.

I guess it depends on where you live and who you serve. I wouldn't take advice from the knot even if they were holding a gun to my head. :laugh:

This is a good time for Mix to consider retiring and starting a career as a Political Podcaster. It seems to be a lucrative career and everyone is doing it. Just joking Mix. Good luck with everything.

I'm also NOT a fan of DJs that talk a lot on the mic. But, I also cringe when I hear a poor sounding voice.

I always had an ear for good music. It just felt natural. I was also a talker. Maybe that's why I became a DJ.

Disco is the reason why I'm a Professional DJ for life. I love that some modern producer DJs brought it back as NuDisco, Tropical House, or EDM. IMHO is the greatest genre & movement ever created. It was the precursor to what EDM concert lovers enjoy today. Disco sounds will continue to...

I never put a time or hours limit to the amount I spend on planning a client's event. Each event is different. Each client is unique. The guest will be different and even when providing the service in a known venue, the client might decide on something challenging. The bigger the event as with...

It's 2 things. Experience and lack of planning. Only through experience Mobile DJs learn what to do & how to do it and the old cliche, fail to plan, plan to fail.
