Services and types of events

The activity is aimed at private celebrations and social events. Among the uses the company mentions are weddings, birthdays, social gatherings and bar and club sessions. The service includes the possibility for clients to suggest their own songs through a client portal, a tool the company highlights as part of its working method.

Working method and coordination with the client

The company describes a process that begins before the event: a prior meeting to see the venue and discuss music matters, continuous communication during planning and arriving at the venue with enough time to set up the equipment. When the event includes other musicians, such as a saxophonist, the DJ coordinates his performance with them. Each booking generates a digital contract that the client signs.

• All electrical equipment undergoes an annual electrical safety test.
• The company states it holds a £5 million public liability insurance policy, aimed at giving peace of mind to the client and the venue.
• A digital contract is issued for signing with every booking.
