Daniel was a pleasure to work with! Always professional, he was incredibly generous with his time, helping us organize our playlist, think through our setup, and navigate a lot of the logistics leading up to the day. His experience and willingness to answer questions made the planning process so much easier.
He was professional, responsive, and clearly cared about making our wedding a success. We really appreciated all of the time and effort he put in before the wedding, and we're grateful he was part of such an important day. Our guests had a great time, and we will forever cherish the memories with everyone on the dance floor! We'd happily recommend Daniel to other couples looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated wedding DJ.
DJ Catur was absolutely great at our wedding celebration party!!! He played all night, paid close attention to what was happening with our guests and the overall mood, cranked it up when it was dance time, slowed it down when it was speech time. He was beyond wonderful, professional and is just an overall nice guy to work with - very professional, positive and worked hard all night! We would hire him again in a second. Actually, every guest at our party felt that way!
Go DJ Catur!!!

Hello! My hometown of Decatur, GA inspired my DJ name (pronounced: cater). I grew up in the Atlanta area and have been in Los Angeles since 2016. My favorite music genres are Hip Hop + R&B. Although I hail from the South and will always have an affinity to snap and crunk hip hop, I love West coast music, too.
I'm fluent in Spanish and know how to spice up a party with some of the more popular Spanish genres, including reggaeton, cumbia, salsa, and Latin pop.
By day, I work as a school leader in South LA. Over the years, I tended to be the school staff member who would curate a playlist or be on the aux for events and dances. I decided to get into DJing after getting my doctorate degree in education because I finally had more time on my hands to pursue a hobby. I love music, and it brings me great joy to contribute to celebrations and special moments.
