The sound system, lighting and percussion are common denominators but the consultation is the important variable in determining how to fine tune the music direction you require.

I can impart that special flavour you are looking for. I have three large songlists which can be emailed to you.

Songlists are there to inspire a few ideas and I use them as a tool rather than a safety valve to fall back on.

Spontanaety,reading the room and improvisation are all imprtant. Being able to accomodate certain requests is also an art.

I have done a host of parties, here are a few examples
Birthdays from 21sts to 60ths
Engagements
Christenings
Theme Parties like a superheros night.
Bucks Turns and Hens Nights
Art Gallery Openings
Background Music for Band CD Launches
Era Themes like 70's and 80's Parties
Fancy Dress like a big Bollywood Event
Young Socialites like The Kooyong Wimbeldon Ball
Fund Raisers eg---For Cystic Fibrosis
Primary School Disco
Presentation Nights For the Bicycle Bandidos Club.
Primary School Auction Nights.
Fashion Parades and Fashion After Parties
After Parties eg For Cirque de Soliel
Even a Breakup Party
Cocktail Parties
Promotion Nights eg For Green M and M's
Product Launch Parties.

Pacing the show and leaving the guests on a high means your very
special day will be warmly remembered for years to come.
