Brings the vibe and energy for your ultimate celebration
“We were so happy to find Adam. It was hard to find a DJ that could see our vision, more of a night club vibe with high level mixing, versus the usual event DJ. We had some diverse genres we wanted to weave together without feeling disjointed. He really mixed everything in a seamless way, creating a great energy within the party. Would highly recommend if you want everyone out on the dance floor all night!”

The Rare DJ Who Unites Every Generation
That's not DJ skill—that's reading humans:
Last December, I moved a room of 300 where half were Gen-Z startup employees and half were their parents and investors. By 10pm, three generations were dancing together. How? Genre fluency. I can transition from Chappell Roan to Stevie Wonder to Daft Punk without anyone leaving the floor. -

“Adam was awesome; I can’t praise him enough. We opted to do a cocktail party style celebration instead of a traditional seated dinner, so we needed someone who would really be able to read the crowd and not stick to the traditional “script”. Adam was stellar; he followed the crowd’s cues and provided the right ambiance throughout the evening. I had several friends say that they hadn’t danced like that in ages.”

The dance floor was literally never empty. We started with a short pre-dinner dance set, and people didn’t even want to sit down and eat. Guests were shazaming songs and are still asking us if we can send them our playlist. But of course, it wasn’t just a playlist we made and handed to him - he worked super collaboratively getting to know us and understand our tastes, and then brought his years of experience to craft a playlist that kept our guests dancing the whole night, and felt very “us”. Adam is an awesome DJ and emcee, and also just a really nice and friendly guy who’s super enjoyable to work with! Can't recommend highly enough!
