Enjoy Your Special Day

The job of the DJ is to find a musical common ground; to provide a soundtrack that enhances the existing atmosphere and the vibe of the crowd.

The most bull-headed DJs won't consider the feelings of their audience. We want to make a connection with the actual humans on the dance floor! And if you can’t relate, you can’t deliver.

A happy crowd leads to a fulfilled DJ. Put yourself in their shoes, and take note of what’s working for them.

It's easy to impose our musical agenda on a captive audience. But the greatest DJs are able to recognize how their music is affecting others.

In my book, it's one of the most helpful traits that any DJ could have. The very idea of crowd-reading depends on empathy, and it allows you to pivot  if what you're doing isn't working.
