How to become a professional Mobile DJ

Do you love playing music for people? Would you love to entertain people with music at various events like weddings, birthdays, dance parties etc and make this as your profession? If you answered yes to both the questions then you are ready to become a Mobile DJ. A Mobile DJ tours with all his equipment and has a collection of music which he plays to entertain his clients. He is a freelancer who works alone or teams up with a company that hires freelancers for events.



There are some things you need to keep in mind to become a professional mobile DJ.

1) When you are hired to play for an event as a Mobile DJ, you need to do thorough research about the type of music expected at the event.

2) You need to check with the client for his taste in music and select music as per the client’s choice.


3) It is important to find out the details of the party for which you have to perform. Ask for details about the party such as the occasion, the type of guests expected and if there is a theme for the party.

4) You need to learn to understand the mood of the party and find the pulse so that it becomes easy for you to tweak the music to make the guests appreciate the music.

5) At every party the Mobile DJ is expected to make announcements. It is advisable not to abruptly interrupt the flow of music and ruin the momentum and atmosphere of the party. It would be professional to slowly reduce the speed and volume of the music before you make the announcement.

6) Punctuality is a virtue that every professional mobile DJ should make part of their routine. Be punctual so that you reach the venue on time and have sufficient time to set up your instruments and get ready before the party. Reaching the venue early will avoid rushing when preparing for a gig.

7) A mobile DJ needs to categorise his music. Categorising the music will help you when you are in the middle of a party and have to quickly retrieve whatever you need without getting hassled.

8) Once the gig is over, a mobile DJ should ask for feedback about his services from the client. Positive feedbacks can be collected as testimonials for your website. Other feedback will be able to help you know about your problem areas so that you can work on them to improve your services.

9) A professional mobile DJ will provide the client with references when the client asks for them. He should also provide samples of his performance and provide links for online videos of his previous performances.

Video Disco- A new way to make any event a success

The video screen becomes an added important point and can be used to display videos, photographs and also the live feed of the dance floor which will make the invitees much more interested in the party.

One can also use the screens to display the company logo or photographs to liven up the atmosphere which are appropriate for corporate functions or weddings.

They are strategically located so that the guests can view them easily and enjoy the complete entertainment with ease. The video screens help the guests get in the party mood much quicker as they can see their favourite singer’s videos displayed on huge LCD screens and projectors.

Things to expect when hiring a video DJ

These days typical music jockeys have become quite outdated. Gone are the days when all the Dj did was spin a few records and do beat matching. They have moved way past their typical style of mixing songs and are now known as a Video DJ who can integrate videos into the mix to create a wonderful experience of music and visuals together.



The Video DJ is not a person who carries a DVD player and just plays music but creates magic by transforming any party into an MTV style celebration. A video DJ will use sophisticated equipment to show his talents. He will mix the sound with music videos to create a concert performance to enthral people who have been invited to the party.

A good video Dj will have the latest videos of chartbusters including popular numbers from the past 30 years. A good Video DJ will use state of the art equipment for fine quality sound and visuals to make any party a roaring success. He should be able to gauge the mood of the crowd and depending on it, should be able to change the music to pep up the mood of the event. A video DJ can also provide state of the art lighting to make your event even more attractive. A video Dj will help client’s select the music and videos which will be suitable so that the client is sure of the music that will play at the event. A video Dj will have a collection of plasma screens and projection screens which help liven up any party.

It is important to sign a contract with the Video Dj to ensure that both the parties are clear about their expectations. A professional Video Dj will also provide the customer with references and a client list so that a customer can be sure about the quality of services.
