djs in chicago - ddsc entertainment

DDSC Entertainment is a husband and wife team of adult DJs with over 30 years of combined experience. We are a self-run company with a hands on philosophy. We are your contact starting with your initial call, pre-event consultation and the final song of your event. No double booking, so... you are the priority. Our approach is flexible, allowing you to have substantial input into your event. Meaning, we take requests seriously, welcome decisions to add or to omit songs that are typically played or traditions, for more meaningful ones to you, adding a theme to a usual event, control the volume, decide the level of interaction (if any), and the style you wish us to use.

This gives you an opportunity to put your personality or identity to your event. THE RESULTS ARE ASTOUNDING! Masquerade ball wedding, commitment ceremonies, senior prom at nursing/rehab centers, roaring 20's Valentine's, Mardi Gras/swing wedding, Latin, ballroom, reggae/ska, anti-valentines single mingle, kids games held at a corp. picnic, steppers sets, biker weddings, developmentally disabled Halloween parties, dance clubmix night, industrial/ electro/techno/ underground rock played at an art gallery, Grateful Dead wedding ... are just a few examples. Of course, we do more traditional functions as well, but the choice is yours! What ever your event is, we tend to take on a role of a director, balancing between your preference with those of your guests, using discretion to what's appropriate and timing. Please take a moment to read on and see why our blend of quality and fun is a unique experience, beyond the typical, that is the best choice for you. ATTENTION! We've added DJ Mike to our staff! Mike brings a fresh face & YEARS of experience to our team! Contact us for details!

"Anatomy of an Event"

QUICK RESPONSE to phone messages or e-mail

APPROPRIATE BUSINESS DOCUMENTS like an event planner, contract, music list and current references written clear and organized to create confidence, not suspicion and worry.

PRE EVENT CONSULTATION which includes a free of charge face to face (phone or e-mail when the other is not possible) meeting to create a comfort level with our service and you. We prefer this method of choosing our service instead of on site or videos because they're an entirely different situation and an inaccurate indicator of our performance for your event. Being comfortable with the DJ(s) should be the main focus on choosing their service. Face to face method does this by allowing you to judge appearance, posture, manners, speaking ability, knowledge of your type of event/music, friendly, personable, easy to talk with, actively listens to your concerns and addresses them in a positive manner. The meeting also allows us to discuss the basic order of events and what strategy to apply for making a unique and special day for you. You're encouraged to speak to us even after the contract has been signed.

SHOWING UP AT YOUR EVENT ON TIME , usually 1 hour prior to your guests' arrival.

SET UP OF A PROFESSIONAL SOUND SYSTEMused specifically for mobile entertainment, designed for concert quality and durability just like a touring band would use. From small events with little space available to huge events with multiple speakers and equipment, we can accommodate you. Control of volume has been a tug of war for ages, but it's really simple. Just consider you and your guests' preferences, room size and number in attendance - that's it! With additional sound equipment, we can cover any type of live musical event.

LIGHTS if desired. Arranged to suit the customer, guests, facility and type of event, from basic lighting to a high tech spectacle. The key here is to add an appropriate enhancement to the room.

Prior to your guest arrival, we will be in APPROPRIATE ATTIRE. From tuxedo to grass skirt - we look the part.

COCKTAIL/DINNER MUSIC is started.....guests have arrived. We believe that this is where the party starts, setting the mood and reflecting your personality.

Both Dan and Cindy can take the "MC" responsibilities, speaking clear, concise and understandable even in a noisy room. Our focus is on grabbing the attention of your guest while projecting a positive attitude.

Along with the aboved mentioned that we do, we offer a "simon says" style interactive dancing that can increase life to a party without being annoying. If this is not you preference, we don't hide behind equipment, instead we have developed a brand of silliness with class to create fun without being a distraction!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call and we hope to hear from you soon!
