Having seen the basics of selecting a good DJ, let us examine some more of the multitude of options on offer. Here is part two of how to select the right disc jockey for your get-together.
Single Unit Disc Jockeys: A single unit disc jockey is a one-man show who is in the business for the sheer pleasure of making good music. An aspiring professional less the flashy wherewithal, he may well be the answer to your needs if you are looking for a low-cost affair. The single unit disc jockey you hire may have simple equipments but may well have liveliness and vigor to put life in the party. On the flip side, the use of much simpler studio equipment may result in their not having enough back up of the songs required. Then as they are not professionals they may be comparatively not so responsible. While you may end up saving a few pennies here, it is best to try out the competence of such a person before you hire him. Ask him for references or a trial performance before you make your final decision. Yellow pages, Friends or Relatives: It is the easiest way to know about the disc jockey but then again it is your luck as everyone has his own choice. Of course, from the yellow pages, you can get the telephone numbers and the addresses of the DJs but then you have little idea about the better ones!!! Do not get disheartened as we have a solution to this also. Here are few tips to keep in mind while talking to them a. It is important to create a rapport with the Disc Jockey over the phone. Take notice of their way of speaking and approach - after all it depicts their style and personality which is a part of their profession. b. Are they returning your phone calls? Were they prompt in doing so? This again shows proficiency in their field and their approach towards work. c. Enquire about the equipments they are using. Check up if he uses his own studio equipment to mix his own music or he uses premixed music. This can give you an idea about the talent of that person. d. You also have to check whether they have digital music recording or normal recording. This is likely to affect the quality of the music produced. e. Ask for the list of songs they would play on that day. It should match the occasion and the type of guests invited. f. One of the most important things to check is whether he fixes his dance floor and the quality of the lighting used. Additional expenses may be avoided if these facilities are provided by the Deejay. Most do, but it always better to be sure. Make the best of this knowledge to get the right man for your wedding function. After all, it's a very special occasion and you would like everything to be memorable and absolutely perfect! Article Source: http://www.ArticleBlast.com |
