DJ Matt was fantastic. The work he did to set up for our wedding ceremony was exactly what we needed. And his efforts to get us dancing at the reception was perfect. He has an ear for many varied musical styles, so there was something for everyone. He was on-time, prepared, and low maintenance. He actually undersold his light show. It made a large tent intimate. No notes. Just a great evening.

Reviews
Great dj for our wedding! Very responsive and flexible. Highly recommend.
We hired DJ Matt for our daughter’s wedding reception and he did a wonderful job! He kept the dance floor going all night and played great music! He is reasonably priced too! 10/10
Matt spent time curating an excellent environment and experience for our school dance. He was in command and control of the party and students had a blast because of the time that he took to be responsive to resubmitted requests, his brilliant mixing and ability to read the room. He is dedicated to making the night an enjoyable experience for all. Matt was kind, punctual and professional. Do not hesitate to book his services for your party or event.
Matt you did a fantastic job! From the moment we spoke with you we knew we made the right choice. You showed up on time followed through with a great DJ experience. Your attention to detail did not go unnoticed and you provided an amazing atmosphere the entire night for everyone. You are the real deal and we cant wait to use you again. Thank you so much!
Great communication, smooth transitions and kept the party going!
DJ Matt played vinyl for my husband's 80th bday party, and everyone loved the music!! From beginning to end Matt delivered quality music and service. Because the venue was large, a cordless microphone would have been helpful, for individuals who have difficulty projecting.
Had Matt for my derby party.. he was fantastic, even extended his time 3 times since it was so good
We had an amazing experience with DJ Matt for our 90-minute glow workout at LadyStrong Fitness! He was on time, well-prepared, and brought incredible energy that matched the flow of our class perfectly. The music kept everyone motivated from start to finish. Highly recommend him for any event, you won’t be disappointed!
Absolutely amazing DJ to work with! Great pricing, very knowledgeable, and extremely reliable. Matt read the room well for song choices to keep the event going! He was amazing with suggestions and ensuring he asked the right questions beforehand! 10/10!
Matt was great! We fully intend to hire him for next year! He worked closely and flexibly with a not-for profit Statewide Event. He set up in two rooms and managed quiet music for conversation, a raucous celebration, and a dance managing the music as an integral part of our event making changes rapidly as we requested it. He played till the very end meeting any request from a group filled with people of every age and from every part of the state. Have no hesitation to hire Matt for any event.
