What can
you tell me about the DJ’s?
Music Magic’s owner
Bill Burns is a musician as well as a disc jockey. This combination
of skills and experience allows for tremendous flexibility and
many creative musical options. Bill loves all aspects of music,
enjoys working with people, and embraces his work with incredible
enthusiasm and attention to detail. He is proficient in both MIDI
(Musical Instrument Digital Interface) sequencing and computer
based digital audio editing. Using modern music technologies,
Bill is capable of creating, editing, or remixing a wide range
of musical styles. He has been performing and creating music professionally
for twenty years. All of the DJ’s Music Magic contracts are professional
entertainers with a love and knowledge of music. Between them
they have entertained thousands, and have decades of experience.
Our DJ’s have excellent master of ceremony skills and the ability
to ‘work the room’. This means that your DJ will personally tailor
his performance for you and your guests.
Do you
supply your own equipment?
Yes. We will arrive
at your event with a complete set of professional, high quality
audio equipment. We utilize Compact Disc, computers, MP3 players, and wireless
microphone technology. Our setups are also pleasant in their
appearance. For more detailed information please go to the equipment
page.
How big
is your music selection?
Our music library is
very large. It spans popular music from the 40’s through 2010,
and today’s latest hits. Big Band, Blues, Classical, Country,
Disco, Ethnic, Electronic, Funk, Hip Hop, Latin, Jazz, Motown,
New Age, Oldies, Pop, Punk, Rap, Reggae, Rock & Roll and Swing.
You can choose specific songs or, select types of music that you
want and your DJ will play from those categories. You may also
list any special request. In addition to your selections, we
also bring hundreds of titles so that you and your guests can
make ‘instant requests’.
Can we
bring our own music?
Yes.
Even though we carry a large and comprehensive music library to
every event, we recognize it is impossible to have everything
ever recorded. If you would like some specific music played, and
you have it, by all means bring it!
How do
you help coordinate our event?
We can perform as the
host and/or master of ceremonies of your event. Different events
require varied degrees of involvement. What is appropriate for
a business dinner/awards ceremony is much different than the needs
of a wedding and reception. The key to any successful occasion
is planning and communication. It is very important to us that
we find out from our clients what their needs, desires and expectations
are. We work very hard to insure that your vision becomes a reality.
Do you
take breaks?
No. Unlike bands, which
take scheduled breaks, we provide music, non-stop, from start
to finish.
How are
you at the microphone?
Restrained and professional,
using effective, entertaining communication skills. There are
certain types of events that can benefit from chatter on the microphone,
i.e., auctions or roasts, but generally the focus is better kept
on you and your guests, not the DJ. That being said, we want your
event to be memorable and fun, so your DJ will add their personality
to the announcements you would like made. You will determine how
much your DJ gets involved.
What will
our DJ be wearing?
It depends on your event.
Weddings dictate formal wear, birthday parties do not. If there
is a certain theme to your event, we will dress according to that
theme, at your request.
What do
you charge?
This is also dependent
on your event. It is very difficult, if not impossible to quote
a price without knowing any details about specific event requirements.
Rest assured we offer competitive rates with other companies in
the area. We suggest calling our toll free line at 800-776-3548
to discuss your event date, time, location and services desired.
Emailing us with
this information is also an option for you.
How far
in advance should we book?
Some dates book six
to nine months in advance. The spring and summer months in particular
book very quickly due to their popularity in peoples wedding plans.
However, on many occasions we book dates as late as a couple of
weeks ahead of time.
