The difference
Most parties have a flat patch.
Yours won’t.
You know the bit. Half nine, drinks flowing, and the floor’s suddenly empty. That’s what happens when someone queues up a playlist and hopes. I read the room and keep it moving, so the floor fills early and stays full till the lights come up. No naff disco, no dead patches, just your lot having it.
Saturdays and December dates go first, so check yours is still free.
What you’re actually getting
Why nobody sits down.

Mixed live
I mix it live all night, every track into the last, so the floor fills early and stays full. Not a playlist on shuffle.

A lightshow that moves
It lights the whole room, not just my corner, and shifts with every track. It turns a function room into a proper night out.

Reads the room
Knowing when to drop the big one, and what to play next to keep them there. That’s the bit you can’t fake.
Every kind of night
One DJ. Whatever you’re celebrating.
From a milestone birthday to the office Christmas do, it’s the same promise every time. A packed floor, the right songs, and a night your guests don’t want to end.
See a real one
A real night, start to finish.
A proper look at what one of my nights actually feels like. Press play.
Your choice of booth
Two looks. Same big night.


How the night runs
Every part of the night, handled.
Here’s how a typical party night runs, so nothing lands on you on the night.
Arrival & warm-up
I set up early, during the meal or the turnaround, so the music’s ready before your guests are.
Background & build
The right level while people arrive, eat and mingle. Never too loud to talk over.
Announcements
Mic kept to a minimum, just the formalities and any special moments, handled smoothly.
Party time
My one job is to keep the floor full. Tell me the songs you love and leave the running order to me.
Special sets
From a Kisstory hour to dance classics, switching it up to lift the room as the night builds.
The last dance
Everyone back on the floor for one final song to send the night off properly.
Christmas & office parties
December is my favourite month of the year.
It’s my birthday month and the best four weeks in the calendar to be a DJ, so I go all in. Office do, shared festive party or a private bash, I’ll keep the whole room dancing.
Share the planning app round the office and everyone can drop in a song they love, so they arrive knowing their tune is coming.
Check a December date- Share the app round the whole office, everyone gets a song in before the night.
- Office do, shared party or private bash, one DJ who keeps every December crowd moving.
- Festive floor-fillers and the classics, the cheesy Christmas ones land at exactly the right moment.
- December books up fast, the best Saturdays go months ahead, so get yours pinned down early.
How this works
Tell me the vibe. Your guests can chip in too.
You don’t need to plan a setlist. Tell me the songs you love, the few you can’t stand, and the feel you’re after. Share the app and your guests, or the whole office, can drop in their requests as well. Then on the night I read the floor and take it where it needs to go. That’s my job, not yours.



Reading the room
I can feel when the room’s ready.
Knowing when to drop the big one, and what to play next to keep them there, is what fifteen-plus years behind the decks buys you.
Don’t just take my word for it
Real nights. Real reviews.
“We hired Dan to DJ our wedding and it was the best decision we made. Dan made so much time for us in preparation for the day with zoom calls, checking timelines and using his app. Quick to respond to emails and give his advice and suggestions on what would work best. We genuinely couldn't have asked for anything more. On the day, Dan's setup looked amazing and he kept the crowd going all night long - I don't think I left the dancefloor at all!!! We had a real mix of music and you absolutely hit the mark. So many comments about how amazing the evening was - even older people saying it was the best evening reception they had been to. Thank you so so much Dan for making the evening such a blast - it really was the best part of the day for us. Love George and Izzy Richards x”
“Dan was absolutely incredible! From our first call, he was super friendly and professional, and really listened to what we wanted from the wedding day. The app Dan uses is a great, and allows you to tailor those key songs for the big day. On our wedding day, Dan went the extra mile and started the night with a DJ set outside for our cocktail hour, nailing the summer vibe perfectly! Going into the evening, he had everyone dancing all night long and managed to mix in genres for everyone’s taste. We would highly recommend Dan and would give him 10 stars if we could!! ⭐️”
“Luckily came across Dan by chance on instagram, when I looked through his videos I knew he was exactly what we were looking for. Dan has an app for you to let him now if there’s any special song requests before the day and any songs not to play which I thought was brilliant. Dan also sorted our dance floor and confetti canyons which were an amazing addition to the night . Dan thank you so much! Everyone was up dancing all night . Would definitely recommend.”
“Dan did an absolutely amazing job for our wedding! We don't have a typical music taste (and one I can imagine is hard to DJ for!!!) but we could not have asked for a better experience - everyone commented on how good the DJ and the playlist was. From the initial call where Dan got to know us and our music taste, to populating some song suggestions on his easy to use app, to delivering a great set - every step was excellent - we couldn't recommend him more!!! As well as the music, the whole set up he brings is excellent and perfectly matched our expectations”
“WHAT AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE! Dan DJ’d our wedding just before Christmas and what an evening it was! We had a couple of meetings with Dan on the lead up to our wedding about our music tastes and what type of music we wanted to be played throughout the night. Dan filled us with confidence and we were so excited to have him Dj. He has an app that you can add in your must plays and the music you’d not like to be played. Dan’s got one clear objective and that’s to keep people on the dance floor! He made our night so incredibly fun and we stayed on that dance floor until the very end! We also opted to use his Photo Booth and the photos were so fun to look through! We’ve already recommended to family who are getting married and we can’t wait to get one day get back on the dance floor with Dan behind the decks again. Thank you so so much for making our night so fun and absolutely unforgettable!”
“Dan absolutely nailed it! We had THE best wedding! He provided support in the lead up to the day too, which was super helpful. Everyone who came commented on how good Dan was! Thank you so much!!”
Everyone was up dancing all night.
