My husband and I hired Joel for our wedding which turned out to be the best investment we made for our big day. We had a very tall order for a hybrid music set up with a DJ, saxop...
hone, and drummer, but Joel more than delivered. I can’t tell you how great the experience was working with Joel leading up to the wedding, he called me multiple times to ask questions and keep us updated on the two other musicians he found. You can tell what Joel does isn’t just a profession, but is his passion, and this translated directly to the dance floor at our reception. So many of our friends came up to my husband and me to tell us that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to because of how awesome the music was. If you’re in the fence about hiring Joel for your wedding, just do it. You won’t regret it!!
I worked with Joel and DJ Robb Batts at Lethal Rhythms and they were exactly what my husband and I imagined to get everyone dancing and having a great time on our wedding day.

thal Rhythms has an awesome online form which helps to steer the direction and tone of the various parts of the wedding day: ceremony, dinner, dancing, etc. It helped me to be able to plan the timing of our day as well as input the specific songs for certain times. I had a few songs that were not in their song database, but they were able to pull them and have them added for me!
DJ Robb also delivered an excellent playlist for the reception! I have continued to hear from our guests, both younger and older, how the music was great and kept everyone dancing. I cannot recommend Lethal Rhythms enough!
My wife and I just had a destination in Savannah last weekend. When we started looking for DJs we had called around to a few locals that were recommended to us. However, I found Jo...
el via research and decided to reach out. We instantly clicked with his vibe and the second we hung up I knew we had found our DJ. He listened to our wants, had multiple phone calls about our specifics for the day.... and boy did he deliver!! Joel was our DJ for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. The ceremony music was loud and clear! The reception was an absolute party. He played exactly the music we wanted with amazing transitions. The dance floor was PACKED from the second it opened until it ended at midnight. I kid you not every person I saw the next day raved about how amazing our DJ was. Even people not at the wedding that saw our videos via instagram were talking about him! If you want to have the best party of your lifetime...without a doubt go with Joel! He will deliver an unforgettable evening!! Thank you Joel for everything you did. We will never forget the party of our lives!
Where should i even start from. Joel is hands-down the best DJ out there. It was super unique to find someone who could mix authentic punjabi/bollywood songs with american soul/fun...
k/r&b. I mean i am talking punjabi MC to ABBA. I am talking Sidhu Moosewala to Earth, wind and fire. Also, he was riffing/mixing with our dhol drummer and that came out super crazy. Everyone from the desi side and American side loved him. I can't recommend him enough for fusion wedding like ours(southern american/punjabi indian). We had a blast at the wedding.
Joel was on the list of preferred vendors for our Venue, but even more impressively our day of coordinator said that she would hire him for her kids' weddings if she was the mother...
of the bride and that was even more convincing. In total transparency he was the one and only DJ that we interviewed and we hired him that night. He's professional, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and does a great job of listening to your ideas and telling you how he can help turn them into a reality. He had fantastic ideas from the first conversation we had with him all the way up to our wedding day. People are still telling us how great our DJ was and guests were on the dance floor from the very first dance all the way to the last song. He keeps a party going!!!! We think that bands and djs can make or break a party and he beyond helped make our party!! He flawlessly mixes songs that will appeal to all ages and made sure the songs we noted as important were included. He has helpful planning tools and worksheets if the thought of what songs you want feels intimidating or daunting. We were a little concerned when we found out he had a conflict/huge professional opportunity the day of our wedding, but he came the night before, set up all of his equipment on Friday, and sent a sub DJ for the ceremony (we had live music) and cocktail hour but made it on time for our big event. Since hiring him I've heard from several friends that they have been to weddings where he was the DJ and they raved just as much as our guests. If he has your date open, don't bother interviewing anyone else, book him and you can be confident that the dance floor will be going the whole night long. Thanks, Joel, you are truly one of a kind.
We had a wonderful experience with Robb Batts at our wedding. Robb and Joel were very understanding when we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID and made the entire process s...

Joel Rabe was incredible for our wedding! So happy we booked Lethal Rhythms after hearing such great things. My husband and I met with Joel a week before our wedding to talk over o...
ur music preferences. And he nailed it! He read the room and was able to get our guests on the dance floor and keep them there :) We received so many compliments on the music throughout the night. Extremely professional and responsive throughout wedding planning. I would highly recommend!
Joel Rabe kept our dance floor live and going the entire night for our wedding. He collaborated with my husband and my taste in music and created amazing mixes of what we love to h...
ear. He could also read the room well and played songs we were into, keeping the engagement as well. He even helped direct great photo opportunities throughout the wedding! We had so many compliments from our guests about Joel! I was worried because everyone always talks about how great bands are for weddings but everyone was ranting and raving about Joel! He even sent us the mixes he created so we can relive the night whenever we want. Highly recommended!!
DJ incrediboi was phenomenal. We couldn’t have asked for a better dj for our wedding. Extremely professional and accommodating.

e music during the reception was great dancing and atmosphere enhancing selection, our guests really enjoyed the party! He also was great during the wedding with our specific song selections. He also did a really cool live stream broadcast as we had to significantly downsize our wedding due to COVID, and our friends all said it was great to be able to watch the livestream and be apart of the wedding. Lethal Rhythms is a great choice for your wedding!
We hired Joel Rabe from Lethal Rhythms to Dj our wedding at Meadows at Mossy Creek. We had read great reviews online and after meeting him in person decided we wanted to book him f...
or our wedding. Joel over delivered and was a huge hit at our wedding. He kept the energy up, stayed on schedule with the timeline of events and didn’t miss a beat! He was so personable and easygoing and our guests even commented how great the music and entertainment was. Can’t recommend Joel enough, he made our wedding the party of the YEAR and an event that we and all our guests will forever remember and cherish! Thank you much Joel again for everything, you made our day so special and everything was seamless, we hope to work with you again in the future!

d his help and kindness managing the timing of everything. Then day off was awesome. The mix the DJ provided was exactly what I was looking for and his sound system was top notch!
We absolutely hit the DJ jackpot with Joel as our wedding DJ. Music was one of the most important aspects of our big day, so I was very picky. I needed a DJ who was familiar with A...
rabic music, and I was lucky enough to stumble upon his company's website. He was so easy to work with from beginning to end- always just one call/text away. I appreciated the time he spent getting to know us and our music preferences. He is very organized and dependable, and I always felt like he had a good grasp of my vision. He even helped me plan the timeline of the night! Most importantly- he had all of our guests up and dancing during a PANDEMIC!!! My husband and I were shocked at how many people were (safely) on the dance floor the entire night, and we owe that all to Joel. It's no easy feat to mesh and satisfy two very different cultures, but he made it look easy. If you are looking to have the time of your life with guests dancing all night long, he just might be your guy. Highly recommend.
We had an AMAZING experience with Joel and the Lethal Rhythms team. Joel was incredibly easy to work with during the planning process. On the day of our wedding, everything ran so ...
smoothly, which made our lives easy. I'm obviously partial, but we had the most fun wedding dance floor I've ever been a part of. Joel played a great mix of music and incorporated our suggestions and requests along the way. Our guests had an amazing time as well! We 10/10 recommend!
We were so beyond pleased with the experience offered by the DJ, Photo Booth, & Videography! I highly recommend this business if you want to have a good time!
Lethal Rhythms made our reception so fun and we never had to think a moment about how things were flowing!! There was no burden on Chad or I and we were free to simply enjoy every ...
moment!!!
Thank you for all your time and effort put forth to make our day magical!!
Our DJ was Chris and he was so helpful and caring through the planning and execution of his services !!
From the first phone call I had with Joel, I knew my husband and I made the right decision going with Lethal Rhythms. Not only is Joel incredibly knowledgeable about music, he know...
s exactly what to do to make you feel as ease. He is incredibly responsive, easy to talk to, and will go above and beyond for your wedding day.
I didn’t give Joel too many guidelines except to keep the dance floor full all night long and he did that exact thing! He picked songs that everyone wanted to dance to and really paid attention to what got people excited. I’ve told everyone I know with an event coming up that Joel has to be there!!
We also did a photo booth through lethal rhythms and I am so glad we did! Our guests had the best time taking photos and we even got a copy of every single one at the end of the night. This was such a special touch.
If you’re even a little bit in doubt about going with Lethal Rhythms, just jump on the phone with Joel and all that doubt will go away!!
Joel was a wonderful DJ for our wedding! When we met with him, it really felt like he tried to get to know us as a couple and plan for our wedding accordingly. He did a fantastic j...
ob at the actual wedding. He played music my husband and I love and even picked song choices that I didn't think to request but were perfect. Everyone had a great time and did not want to leave the dance floor. I highly recommend Lethal Rhythms for your wedding and requesting Joel in particular! He made our special night unforgettable!
We loved Lethal Rhythms! Music was our top priority and my husband and I are very particular about our music so finding the right fit was so important. We spoke with Joel, the owne...
r, initially and he was so genuine in getting to know us and our style that we talked for over 40 minutes! He was booked for our wedding day but recommended DJ Fernando to us. We spoke with Fernando and felt the same connection immediately and we booked with the company. Due to an unforeseen circumstance about five months before the wedding we had to switch DJs and Joel was once again incredibly helpful. He spoke with us again and said that everyone he would recommend was booked already so he actually called in a favor from the former co-owner and one of his friends to talk to us. We spoke with Spencer and again felt so lucky that we clicked instantly so we moved forward. We never felt pressured from Joel to stay with the company and he truly just wanted the best fir for us. DJ Spencer was an absolute hit and he spent a lot of time with us the month leading up reviewing our different playlists for cocktail hour, dinner and dancing and understanding our intentions. He killed it the night of and the dance floor was never empty. He delivered all the announcements professionally and directly. It was a perfect night!
We were so impressed with Joel from the very first conversation, to our in-person meeting with all of our vendors in regards to timeline and minute details, down to every last deta...
il through our wedding day. He really knows what he's doing and the dance floor never slowed down. Perfect mix of music for our crowd, and while we could have given him an elaborate list of song suggestions, we opted not to and looking back, no regrets. He reads the room and knows what to do. Less work for you! The best part was the last song of the night. I won't spoil the details for anyone else, but he managed to make it one of the most memorable and special parts of the evening. I had to pinch myself and tried to soak in every second. If you're looking for a PROFESSIONAL who really knows what they're doing and will make your wedding reception unforgettable, LOOK NO FURTHER! Thank you, Joel!!!

My husband and I went back and forth between choosing a live band or DJ for our wedding reception in June. We wanted a blend of music, but a lot of motown. My one ask was that our ...
dance floor stay packed all night. Joel made that happen ten times over! Everyone at our wedding had the best time and our dance floor was packed from the time it opened up until the last dance. Joel and his team are so friendly and professional, honestly so easy to work with. I cannot recommend Lethal Rhythms enough!
Joel Rabe with Lethal Rhythms was phenomenal at our wedding. My husband and I love music/dancing and it was the most important aspect to us to find the best DJ we could. After spea...
king with Joel on the phone we knew he would be a great fit. He is friendly, experienced, passionate about his work, and professional. Right off the bat my wedding planner loved him. Going into the day we were nervous about everyone having a good time, but we shouldn't have ever worried. He is an expert at reading a room and navigating the energy to make sure everyone is engaged and having fun. He played (and mixed!) the best music and the entire party was incredible. All our guests were commenting how "amazing the DJ" was and that it was an "epic dance party." I wish I could have another wedding so we could Joel to come and play again!
We had a great time and Charles did a phenomenal job! Thanks so much for everything your team made the whole experience wonderful. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking...
to have a unique and memorable experience!
Joel was awesome and got people on the dance floor. He was always available to talk before the wedding and he included our input in the music and events that occurred that evening....
I would recommend him to anyone!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Chris Watson and Lethal Rhythms! From the first time I inquired about their services, Joel Rabe (the owner) was always incredibly quick a...
nd responsive to make sure they knew what kind of night we wanted to have.
Chris himself was very professional and really listened to what types of music we liked and the ambience we wanted to create. He provided the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception and it went off flawlessly.
We also used their videography and photo booth services. We cannot wait to see the video, and the photo booth had everyone laughing and celebrating all night!
Highly recommend to all the couples out there!!

He also kept the dance floor full all night long! So many guests mentioned to me after the fact that they've never been to a wedding before with so much dancing and such great music! I would highly recommend Joel, Robb and the Lethal Rhythms team for any event!
Where do I begin? DJ Joel was nothing short of AMAZING from beginning to end. He got the party started immediately at our wedding reception and had our guests of all ages out on th...
e dance floor during the entire night! DJ Joel was able to read the crowd and made sure that everyone was having a blast. He also made the effort to introduce himself to guests, which really made them feel included. We had so many people tell us it is the most fun they have ever had at a wedding reception. It’s clear why people say that DJ Joel is the best in Atlanta!
I was recommended to Joel from my wedding venue and my company that I work at. I was extremely happy with my decision! Joel did an amazing the whole night and I do not think there ...
was one moment - literally 2 seconds into the first song people were on the dance floor - that someone wasn't dancing. We had such an incredible time at our reception and Joel definitely set the mood! The software and planning form they use are great and basically everything is done! We had a great time!
OMG DJ JEver was AMAZING! We spoke a few times before the wedding to work out all the details and he made sure everything was perfect. His attention to detail and making sure he pr...
onounced everyone's name correctly, making sure the timeline was flawless and editing songs just as requested are only a few of the highlights. His natural ability to engage the crowd and read the group to know exactly which songs to play during the reception sealed the deal. DJ J Ever with Lethal Rhythms is highly recommended.
I cannot say enough about how awesome the music at our wedding was! Joel truly knows how to keep the party going and made sure our guests had a Blast! My husband and I are an inter...
racial couple (I’m white, he’s black) and his parents were skeptical that our DJ was “a white guy” LOL. But Joel definitely brought the party and rhythm and everyone had a blast! Joel also worked with us during the ceremony and cocktail hour where we had a solo saxophonist play along with the DJ for an intimate live music feel. It was such a hit! We also got videography and the photo booth through Lethal Rhythms which everyone loved. Our guests have said over and over that our wedding was the most fun wedding they had ever been to. Money well spent!!
Joel and his team were absolutely fantastic! From the first moment I reached out for a quote up until the wedding itself, Joel was an amazing resource. Out of all the vendors we h...
ad, he was the one that was easiest to get ahold of. After emailing him about a quote, he called me the next day. He was so personable and easy to talk to that I knew I wanted to use him. He gave us all the resources we needed, including his cell phone number, to figure out which DJ was best for us. After selecting one of his Dj’s, the rest of the planning was easy! Their online tools are easily accessible and if you have any questions Joel is always there ready to help! About a month out from our wedding Joel informed us that the DJ we had selected had been hospitalized with numerous out of the blue health issues and that he would instead cover our wedding. He made everything so seamless and did an amazing job mixing at our wedding. I would recommend and choose Lethal Rhythms 1000x over!
I LOVED getting to experience DJ Joel Rabe at my best friend’s wedding last June that I just had to book him for my own wedding next January! Lethal Rythms not only knows how to ge...
t a party going... they know how to keep it going!! We had a blast on the dance floor! I would highly recommend them to any bride looking for an excellent DJ to keep the atmosphere of your wedding fun and alive!
I was maid of honor at a wedding last week and Joel completely made the night with his amazing setlist and fun persona! Absolutely recommend!! He even took every request!
Joel is a rockstar, his transitions are unparalleled, and the crowd feeds off of his playing. We were at the IHG Holidex retirement party and everybody was out on the dance floor, ...
having a blast. It's a testament to Joel's ability to play to the crowd.
As one of the partner's of SocialBox, we do events and activations all over the country, have been paired with many DJs, and Joel is at the top of the list.
Highly recommended.
I am a professional photographer and experienced my first silent disco with Joel and his team at WIPA’s national awards gala. The music and dancing truly was truly the highlight of...
my night and I’m sure most of the other vendors could echo that sentiment! It was so much fun being able to switch between the DJ’s who all had their own sound! LOVED the experience and will be sure to share it with my brides. Maybe, because I just want to do it all again?! ;)
Joel kept the partying going ALL night. He was great at reading the crowd and selecting the best songs. Everyone was on the dance floor, even my non-dancing groom! His service and ...
music selection was amazing. I highly recommend Lethal Rhythms (and Joel) if you want a non-stop good time!
