CHRISTMAS PARTY DJ
Xmas Party DJ – Everybody wants to have fun at their Xmas party, it’s the one time of the year when we can all ‘let our hair down’ and have a really good time. Often the DJ at a Christmas Party is the main source of entertainment so you want to make sure you hire somebody who is professional, knowledgeable and able to cater for a mixed crowd, often with a varying age range. Last year I DJ’d for the Santa Dash on Clapham common, where 4000 fancy dress Santa’s run varying distances to raise money for charity. Also I played in the Aviary roof bar overlooking the whole of London for one Xmas Party YOU CAN SEE THE XMAS SHOWCASE HERE
“Thanks for your email! It was lovely to work with you too – your tunes got us in a very festive mood. Have a lovely Christmas and look forward to seeing you in 2018.

Dome tent Xmas Party for Film Company

London Xmas Party – Aviary Roof Top
London Xmas Party - Aviary Roof Top. I got to play at the top of the Montcalm Royal London House in Finsbury Square, London in the Aviary Roof Top bar This amazing venue has views to impress and because of the clever igloo rooms outside on the rooftop itself no reason to be cold or wet. With over 250 people all ready for a festive party this turned into a really enjoyable corporate event. With it being Christmas, I played a few chilled seasonal tracks at
Santa Dash – Clapham Common, London

Setting up at 8.00 I started playing Xmas tunes about 9.00 through an amazing sound system installed all round the course and beefed up with several 5k stacks in the centre of the common.

Pennyhill Park Wedding at Xmas
I love Xmas weddings and this one was no exception. The venue was Pennyhill Park in Surrey base for the English Rugby team when they are training an a great place for a quiet family wedding, which is just what this was. I was booked to play for the pre-wedding drinks, the ceremony itself, post wedding drinks, wedding breakfast and then the wedding disco in the evening. This involved 2 set-ups across 3 different rooms. With only 22 guests it meant song choice was vitaly important
Xmas Hollywood themed party
Hollywood party - The first Xmas party for me this year was at the Crowne Plaza at Heathrow Airport. For a bit of a change, they had a Hollywood night theme so the evening started off with Oscar winning and film theme music during the drinks reception. After the speeches and over dinner I played some cool xmas tunes. This was followed by a party set made up of very mixed genres of music. Hollywood party playlist Title Artist The Power of Love PLAY

I played at a lovely corporate Xmas party at the Crowne Plaza Heathrow. It was for 200 people from 3 local companies.

Although it was a real mixed crowd the night was great fun and the 3 groups all seemed to enjoy themselves, the function manager backed this up by saying

Cool Christmas songs
Cool Christmas songs This Christmas I thought I would put together a Christmas song list of cool tunes rather than the normal Xmas song list you get. I am regularly asked to DJ in Surrey and the crowd expect something a little different....... This is a list of tunes I collected over the years that I would play to a more discerning crowd who by the time of their Christmas party are probably more than just a bit tired of hearing the same songs
