Frequently Asked Questions

The questions we hear most.
Answered.

Planning, power, production, travel, venue requirements, and the practical details worth knowing before your event.

PlanningWhy is there a meeting before the event?+
This serves two purposes. Firstly, events can be very busy with a lot of moving parts, especially on the day of. One purpose of this meeting is to discuss the event logistics, such as loading, unloading, power, set-up location, ect. This way, on the day of the event we can simply show up and get to work. We want to be the last thing you have to think or worry about. Secondly, this allows us to get a feel for your event and helps us better prepare for all of your event’s aspirations!
PlanningHow many tables and chairs do you need?+
None! Thanks for asking! We like to remain 100% self sufficient! You can expect us to supply all the equipment we need.
TechnicalWhat are your power requirements?+
Important power requirements for proper equipment operations: Minimum of 1 Power Source within 25 ft of the DJ set-up location with nothing else operating on the same circuit (dedicated circuit), (Standard US outlet, 120v circuit, 60hz, 15 / 20amps), we will not operate off generators.
TechnicalHow much space do you need?+
Our typical set-up requires 18′ wide by 8′ deep of ground space.
AtmosphericsCan you provide haze atmospherics?+
For haze generation, we require venue permission and disabled fire alarms. This is an important precautionary measure because certain fire alarms can be falsely triggered by the particles in the air.
AtmosphericsDo haze atmospherics make thick clouds in the air?+
Nope! You may be thinking of the old school fog machines! The purpose of haze generation is to add a thin medium to the air for the lights to shine through. Think about concert venues, or TV audition shows; you can see the light beams in the air from the lighting fixtures, but can still see around.
AtmosphericsDo your haze machines leave a residue?+
Nope! We specifically utilize water-based haze fluids that do not leave any lingering residue around the venue. Those residues that get left behind are from oil-based fog/haze fluids. Rest assured – we do not use any oil-based fluids.
LogisticsWhat if my event is outside?+
For events that take place outside, we require adequate overhead coverage from direct sunlight, inclement weather, rain, and wind, to enable safe operation of the equipment for the DJ. The shelter must be sturdy and have protective sides to protect it from rain and wind. Ideal operating temperatures are between +50°F and +95°F anything outside of this range increases the potential for equipment failure and damage, and the DJ reserves the right to not provide the services outdoors.
LogisticsHow much time do you need to set-up?+
We require a minimum of 2 hours to set-up before an event. Depending on certain logistics of a venue, we may need a bit more or less.
Pricing & PaymentHow much do you charge?+
All rates, fees, and information regarding our professional DJ service packages, can be found under the “Services” tab on our website.
Pricing & PaymentWhat payment methods do you accept?+
At this time we only accept cash or check. Cash is only accepted in person, while checks can be sent in the mail.
Pricing & PaymentDo you charge extra for set-up and tear-down?+
Nope! We do not charge any extra fees for set-up or tear-down. This is all included in your professional DJ package.
TravelHow far will you travel?+
As far as you need us! We charge a travel fee for events over 35 miles from our base operations in Dunkirk, MD. Additionally, any travel over 70 Miles one-way from our base operations may require hotel accommodations and parking for the safety of our service providers. Destination services are available upon request. Travel and hotel accommodations, per diem, and on-site equipment rentals are required for these events. Contact us for more info.
LogisticsDo you require any parking accommodations?+
Yes! For each of our events, we utilize a vehicle and an attached 6’x12’ cargo trailer for transporting the equipment to and from the venue. For this, we require on-site parking accommodations by either the client or the venue. Our ideal parking solutions: Reserved parking in the loading dock, a reserved “Pull-through” parking space (2 adjacent parking spaces) at the end of a parking row with available turning radius to pull trailer through, or a reserved row of 7 side-by-side parking spaces.
LogisticsDo you have any load in and load out requirements?+
For load in and load out of the venue, we require access to the loading dock (if applicable) 2 hours before the event and for 2 hours upon completion of the event. Additionally, we have a lot of gear on wheels to move, so we need a clear pathway for loading and unloading our road cases.
