DJ's Don't Loose Your Groove

It's a very common tale. Your a DJ and you've aged over the past decade and in the process you've forgotten what's cool. I guess you could say... you've lost your groove. It's a failure to stay fresh, wish causes a failure to boost business, but how are you supposed to stay fresh in an industry where trends change almost weekly? The key is inspiration my friend. If I were you I'd do a scan of the web everyday and find the coolest pictures of the DJ's that you can whether they do Top 40's Music, Experimental, EDM, etc. I don't care. Get inspired by guys like the one below. He's got it and that's what the people want. I'm not saying we all have to be DJ Khaled, I'm just saying we can all learn something from the streets and from the people.

Hiring the Right DJ

Have you every had an event where you thought you found the perfect DJ  (or at least a decent one) and he turned out to be a complete flop? I certainly have. It was one of the worst moments of my event planning career. When a DJ is off, almost everybody knows. It becomes the elephant in the room. You don't want the music to stop because of the awkward silence, but the outdated and terribly mixed songs coming from the DJ booth are even more awkward. That's why finding the right person is so important.

3 things to look at before hiring a DJ:

1. What events have they done in the past? Anything reputable? This info should be in their EPK

2. Are they gonna make it hot?

3. Who's your daddy?

Ask yourself these three questions and 99 times out of 100 you'll end up with a really good DJ.
