( Important information to ask a DJ Hire company )
Here are our answers...
Do you have backup equipment and DJ's?
atmosphere djs: Yes. Even professional
audio equipment can fail on occasion, don't let this put
an early end to your affair. Make sure your DJ carries
backup equipment and that there is a substitute DJ available
should an emergency or case of illness occur.
Is your equipment of professional quality?
atmosphere djs: Yes. There is a difference
between home audio and professional road-worthy equipment.
The equipment a DJ uses should be built to go on the road
each and every day.
Will you listen to my music selections?
atmosphere djs: Yes. Many DJ's are of
the opinion that they know what music is best for their
audience and won't take requests. Your DJ should listen
to requests and play them whenever appropriate.
Where do you get your music?
atmosphere djs: Yes, we use authentic
recordings. Several DJ companies have been shut down or
sued for obtaining music illegally over the internet or
for recording their own copies.
Is the person knowledgeable about your type of
event?
atmosphere djs: Yes. There are all kinds
of DJ's: club DJ's, wedding DJ's, rave DJ's…the
list is endless!! Can your DJ service handle your wedding
reception? Ask the DJ how many events of your type that
he/she has done.
Will you dress appropriately at my affair?
atmosphere djs: Yes. It is important
that your entertainer look the part by dressing formal
or semi-formal, according to your preference. Themed events
and picnics require different attire.
Will you play the music at appropriate levels?
atmosphere djs: Yes. The biggest concern
voiced by prospective clients is the volume level of the
music. A professional DJ knows to keep
the volume at a level appropriate for the guests, especially
during cocktails and the dinner hour.
Do you do more than just play music at the reception?
atmosphere djs: Yes. Most wedding receptions
involve more than playing music. It is important to have
a DJ who can handle all the announcements, help coordinate
the affair, and create a fun atmosphere with the music
they play.
Will you listen to my concerns and input?
atmosphere djs: Yes. A professional
DJ is aware that they can't possibly know every aspect
of music and entertainment-and your ideas. Your input
and suggestions should be welcome!
