Making people feel good through music has always been a gift of mine. I have been playing drums since I was 5yrs old. There is something about how you make people feel when their favorite song is played or the guitar player hits that run. I want my clients to have a memorable experience when they experience HEFBEATS from the day you book with me until last song is played on your special day. It’s one of best feeling in this world to know you’ve made someone’s day special. Let’s make memories!!

Book DJHefbeats! Attentive, engaging, and professional describe our experience with Hefbeats perfectly. From the moment we reached out, his was incredibly responsive and made us feel like everything was truly under control. What stood out to us was his attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our specific requests. Hefbeats was always quick to address any concerns we had and ensure that everything ran smoothly on our special day - from music to uplights. DJ Hefbeats created an incredible vibe from start to finish!
One aspect we particularly appreciated was how we were able to personalize our music selection and detail all aspects of our wedding timeline, creating a fantastic atmosphere that resonated with all our guests.
We are grateful to Hefbeats for their dedication and commitment to making our wedding day memorable. Their passion for what they do shines through, and we would recommend them to anyone looking for a talented DJ for their event.

This DJ is fantastic! Very friendly and easy to communicate with, whether by text or call. He manages everything through a very thorough app, which makes planning a breeze. He comes fully equipped with all the necessary gear and has a great sense of humor. He's excellent at hyping up the crowd and is great with people—just an all-around great guy.
I definitely recommend him! He encourages you to provide as much detail as possible on the app, especially when it comes to the songs you want. He also offers extras like a photo booth, smoke effects for the first dance, extra lighting, and even different color options for the DJ setup (black or white).

Working with Hefbeats was great! He's very personable yet professional. Our party started at 9p and he dropped the first beat at 9 and kept it going the whole 4 hours. Everyone stayed dancing. The music flowed effortlessly. I'd without a doubt would use Hefbeats again and again. If you are looking for an amazing DJ give Hefbeats a call. He wont disappoint!!!

If you are looking for someone that is high energy, responsive, professional, and patient when you are indecisive on what songs to play…. If you want someone to keep your guests entertained and the party nonstop… BOOK HEFBEATS.
There’s not another DJ we would’ve rather had at our wedding. He puts so much effort into the details and planning so that your night goes exactly as planned. He’s apart of the family now, and forever a special piece of the best day of our life.

Hefbeats is amazing! Prior to the wedding they weres in contact and always available. The app Jovel and team uses is extensive and allowed us to really share with Hefbeats/our DJ Jovel what we were looking for tonally. On the wedding day he took the music we had suggested and had it fit perfectly. I got so many complements from the tunes during dinner hour and the choices during the dancing. I thought my group would not be out on the dance floor but he made it happen and they had the best time!
Most of, I am so appreciative of how Jovel, understood that we needed to make many last minute choice (even just before the ceremony and throughout the day) because of the weather. He was a complete pro and moved with those changes easily and effortlessly.
I am so grateful that we used hefbeats, I cannot recommend them enough. The before the wedding support and day of services were top notch and brilliant and there isn't any better!

If you are looking for a professional that has a wealth of knowledge, flexibility, will ask you the questions that you didn't even know should be asked and feels like family, Hefbeats is the professional DJ you want. Secured Hefbeats services for my wedding in February 2022 and he was phenomenal. He was able to adopt to last minute changes, followed up with me on my music selection, provided guidance and insight on songs for various performances throughout the wedding reception. He arrived when he stated he would, followed and stayed on time to the timeline that was presented to him but most of all besides being a professional he was FUN. He understood what I wanted and was very personal and got my humor. It was like having my favorite brother and/or cousin with me on my very special day. I plan on using him for all my future events.

Jovel was personable from our first interaction. He made everything seamless for our celebration, and we haven't stopped smiling since. He kept that party going! The kids and the adults stayed on the dance floor the entire night Everyone raved about him and we are so thankful. High level of responsiveness to keeping us on track during the event, playing the requests, and he also did a wonderful job blessing the food on the spot. While we were pleased with the jams, it meant more to us that he felt like part of the family.

I 10/10 recommend DJ Hefbeats. He was quick to respond, he was reliable, he was professional, and he made all accomadations requested. My wedding planner and the venue spoke very highly of Jovel and said he was easy to work with. I love dancing and I wanted the reception to be a fun time on the dance floor, DJ Hefbeats kept the crowd dancing till the sparkler send off.

HefBeats was amazing! He helped guide us in our wedding music selection and was so patience with us. My husband and I had no clue on the music and timeline of things and HefBeats was so wonderful and talked us through and gave us recommendations on timelines for the special moments at the wedding. He also helped us pick the right music, since we were mixing multiple genres of music, to satisfy all guest. Everyone enjoyed the music selection and danced all night!

Omg I can not explain how awesome this DJ is. I had so many moving parts in my wedding and not only was he accommodating but also super helpful when we were lost and confused. There is nothing like a DJ who knows what they are doing. Using Hefbeats was stress free! And the music was BANGIN 👏. I dont have to worry about a dj for my next event
