Client Comments & References:

“We did not request any songs ahead of time and the kids enjoyed what was played. I was very comfortable with him and didn't have to worry about what was being played. The students actually all stayed right up to the end which was great!  The students enjoyed him so much they want him next year.  Well worth the money. Best prom we have put on!  I think he was great and very well understood and professional. Too bad he is not available for my daughter's wedding - would very much liked to have had him!”

“Thank you for getting back to so many emails from me.  When I first started contacting you when I lived in Hawaii it was great to have such great communication with you while planning our wedding from so far away! The ceremony music was perfect and well done. Russ worked great with our caterers (Classee). Would use Conway again and Russ again for any event! Thanks again!”

“Russ was EXCELLENT! He exceeded my expectations and was an amazing addition to our event.  Russ was very accommodating and did a great job with all activities and announcements.  Many people asked where I found the DJ and expressed how impressed they were.  Did you see that the event was in The Saratogian? Front page article. There is also a video where Russ is leading a parade of kids. Look up Purim at Saratogian.com.  We loved Russ! If we have the event again next year we will definitely want him back!”

The company was quick to respond to my inquiry from the very beginning. Diana was so friendly on the phone when first talking about booking a date. It was nice to hear a "real" person on the phone! Russ was a great DJ and master of ceremonies. We couldn't have asked for anything better. He responded to all of our questions and inquiries in short periods of time and entertained all of our ideas! Everyone loved Russ at the wedding. They were very impressive by his ability to carry the reception and cater to requests and our desires for special events. People are still calling saying how great Russ was. They loved the props and contests. Russ was so approachable and looking to please that everyone really enjoyed his presence at the wedding. Russ has similar music tastes as we did and he did an excellent job timing everything. We loved the dinner music and were extremely pleased with the selection. Russ always kept people on the dance floor and if not there he was in the table areas getting everyone going. He always was clear when making announcements and no problems getting the crowd excited!!! Russ- We can't begin to thank you enough for being part of our wedding "team". We enjoyed working with you and wouldrecommend your services in a heartbeat!

"Russ did a fantastic job! He was just fabulous! We were so thrilled with him! He's a wonderful young man! We couldn't have been more pleased - even the bartender said it was the best wedding he has ever seen there, and he's seen a lot of weddings! Russ went above and beyond By the end of the night we felt like he was part of the family and we didn’t want him to leave! We were so pleased Russ was our DJ – it couldn’t have workedout better! We’d highly recommend him to anyone!!”

Russ is definitely our favorite - we work really great together - for seeing each other at this annual event (so far) I don't think anyone would know we weren't a team already. He's a super person to work with! Our girls love him- he makes their evening fun!

We've had excellent feedback on our Mardi Gras Ball - we were extremely happy with this as we changed the theme from the Father/Daughter Ball (which had been a tradition for the past 7 years). We were quite worried about the change, but the feedback we rec'd was fabulous! Russ found great songs as we changed the theme of our event.

Thanks for working so well with our requests - it means a lot to get what we want and need - we had to cancel our first event because of snow. Diana worked great for us as she helped us to keep Russ and get us a new date with no hassle at all - very friendly! Diana and Russ are great - easy to work with and helpful! I couldn't be happier with your service and wish I had more events that I could hire you guys!!!

I wanted to thank you again for Saturday night It was just a terrific, fun night for my family, especially for Moriah Every time I saw her she was having a ball dancing or playing games, and that was really the most important thing for us The candle lighting was so well done by you and Matt - all whipped up with 45 minutes of prep time! You did, nonetheless, entertain me and all of the adults You got people dancing, played all the songs I asked you to play, fired up a great Horah, and really engaged everyone and moved things along smoothly The night was both fun and intimate and you were a perfect fit If all of your party-throwers are as much of a pain in the butt as I was you have a tough job You were a complete professional as far as dealing with limited space for the cocktail hour and changing plans My daughter said the kids loved him He put up with me before and during the event He played all songs, kept people dancing, took requests, was flexible with the plans and the caterer I want to adopt him What else can we say Thanks again and I am sure we'll seeeach other at a party or a DMB show Please use us as references

If any of the other DJ's are as good as Russ, you have a great company! He did great, answered all the calls, and even brought the champagne! My Wedding guests are still talking about how much it rocked a month later! He knows what’s going on at this wedding, everyone was dancing the entire time. He actually sounds like a DJ... how is that even possible. This man was born for the mic! This might have been the greatest Wedding reception of all time. If it is at all possible, I would really appreciate you guys giving him a pay raise. He deserves it. Yes I'm serious. The Office staff was great, you probably all deserve a raise, so hopefully Russ gets a large enough Raise to take you allout for some "soda's" Thanks again Russ! Party on!

Russ answered every question that we had and made sure that everything we wanted was perfect. We added several things at the last minute and Russ had no problem including them in the festivities. Two weeks later we are still getting comments on Russ's ability to keep the reception lively, yet comfortable for the older guests as well. Everything was perfect. We could not ask for better. Russ is an exceptional DJ. We wish him the best in all his future endeavors.Please do not hesitate to contact us if he needs a reference.
