About
I read the floor. You enjoy the night.
A decade behind the decks, from Brunswick warehouses to the Crown ballroom.
Open-format means I do not chase one genre — I read the floor and curate the night, song by song. Wedding tarantella into hip-hop. Corporate cocktail into house. Throwbacks into Bad Bunny.
Based in Melbourne, available worldwide. MC service, lighting, and full backup gear included on every booking.

FAQ
Questions, answered.

Included on every wedding and most corporate bookings. I handle introductions, toasts, program transitions, and last-call. No cheesy radio voice — clean, warm, on-brand.
Yes. Standard package includes uplighting and DJ-booth wash. Larger events: moving heads, LED dance-floor, custom monogram gobo. Quoted per venue.
