Biography

Hi, I’m Randal and I hate boring parties. Life is too short. You want people to stay and I want people to stay… And dance, and have fun and be social and say, “Wow, this is the best party we’ve ever been to.” And, “Where did you find this disc jockey, he’s awesome!”

I have been able to do this as a career now for twenty years and before that, it was a part time job for another eleven. In that time, I’ve done close to 1,550 parties. The best part about saying that is that it wasn’t the same party 1,550 times. Each party is different and requires me to stretch and become a better performer. There are so many new trends and new ideas, today’s party isn’t the same as two years ago or even last year.

I’ve received an award from Wedding Wire for the amount of reviews that we received. I’ve been nominated for the My Favorite Vendor “Vendi” Award for the past six years by the American Association of Certified Wedding Planners and won it in 2010. When I first went full time back in 2001, I started the local chapter of the American Disc Jockey Association so that we could train all the local disc jockeys to do better and bring the standards up in our profession.

When it comes to the actual party, my strength is the ability to read people and connect with them. I said I’m a disc jockey and a master of ceremonies, but really, an entertainer and a motivator. If we need guests out of their chairs, let’s make it fun and give them a reason to have fun with us.

What separates all the disc jockeys around the area are talent, personality and price, and I hope that we are a match for each other.
