How Our DJs Earn Their Place

  1. Review

    We carefully review every DJ’s press kit and past work.

  2. Meeting

    Promising DJs meet us, so we can see how they communicate with clients.

  3. References

    Our recruitment team calls their references to make sure they’re legit.

  4. Trial gig

    They play a trial event, where we check they’re on time, professional and know the equipment inside out.

  5. Feedback and coaching

    We collect the client’s feedback and coach them on their strengths and what to work on.

  6. Moving up

    DJs rise through our levels (Rising, Signature, Elite and Master) as five-star feedback comes in.

  7. Every event

    Our DJs arrive 3 to 4 hours early, and we send a replacement DJ if one ever falls ill.

Choosing your DJ

How does The DJ Company choose its DJs?

In seven steps. We review every DJ’s press kit and past work, meet the promising ones and call their references. Each new DJ plays a trial event, and we collect the client’s feedback and coach them on what to work on. DJs move up our levels as five-star feedback comes in, and at every event they arrive 3 to 4 hours early, with a replacement DJ if one ever falls ill.

Can we ask for a specific DJ?

Yes. Ask for any DJ on this page by name when you enquire. If they’re free on your date and at the level your package includes, they’re the DJ who plays your event. Otherwise we match a DJ to your crowd and your music.

Which DJ comes with each wedding package?

Each package names its DJ’s level. The Deluxe Package comes with a Signature Wedding DJ, The Luxury Package an Elite Wedding DJ and The Forever Package a Master Wedding DJ. In Johannesburg, Pretoria and Durban, The Signature Package comes with a Rising Wedding DJ.

Can our DJ also MC?

Most of our DJs are capable MCs, though not all, and several profiles on this page say so. We also work with professional MCs in Cape Town who aren’t listed here, and can arrange one as a specialised service, quoted over and above your package. Tell us what you need when you enquire.

Can we hear or see a DJ before we book?

Yes, ask when you enquire. Some of our DJs have full sets on video, and we also have full sets in audio, so we can share what we have for the DJ you’re considering. We also put together custom playlists on request for each occasion.

What if our DJ falls ill?

We send a replacement DJ, held to the same standard as the one you booked. We also bring backup equipment, including a backup music source and microphone, so a failed device never stops the music.
