Here is a note from DJ Erik:
I like to keep things easy.
We talk ahead of time, and I ask a few quick questions and then I take it from there. I typically show up early. I coordinate with whoever’s running the show that day and make sure we’re good and prepared for everything to go smoothly.
If the timeline changes, no stress—I adapt fast and keep things going with vibes all the time.
I liked being able to say: "Yes, we can do that." Or: "Let me make it better for you." On your special day, you will feel like I am 100% focused. Your party should be fun but also hopefully stress-free!
The choice in entertainment is so important, it brings all of what we value together into one special night for you and your friends and family. It is my privilege and highest regard to provide musical entertainment for all my clients. I hope to chat soon, and look forward to hearing about your plans for your big day!

Audience reviews from 2025:
"Erik has such a calming peaceful energy, and it was a blessing to work with him. He made our wedding night something to remember. He even got my mom to get up and get on the dance floor. His prices are fair and his personality is A1. If you are looking for a DJ he’s the guy that you want for any occasion."
"From the very start, he was professional, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with."

Erik is an amazing DJ. He played at our wedding reception in December, and I personally have adopted him as our family DJ for any of our future events. He was professional, kind, and truly made sure our special day was one to remember. He was always available to answer any email or text that I sent him and quick to reply. He had family members on the dance floor that have never stood up on a dance floor other than to head to the restroom or head out. He brought the reception to such life and we enjoyed every minute of it. He’s the absolute best, and we would recommend his service to anyone looking for a gifted DJ. Thank you again Erik.

We hired DJ Erik for our a few different events this past school year, and he completely exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, communication was smooth and professional. He took the time to understand our music preferences, schedule, and age ranges of our students. For our Dance-a-Thon, DJ Erik played three back to back sessions for three different age groups in grades PreK through 8th grade, and did a great job playing music that was appropriate for the different grade bands. He brought very high energy that kept our students dancing the entire time! Overall, DJ Erik is extremely professional, punctual, engaging, and super friendly. We highly recommend him for any event and will definitely work with him again in the future.
