So, me and my fiance are trying to plan our wedding, which happens Aug 30, and when it comes to the subject of a DJ, its tough. The wedding is at a really nice beach house about half an hour from Buffalo NY, and every DJ we dig up is either super traditional/wack or leans toward EDM and isnt really a wedding DJ per se.
We are looking for someone who can get it turnt. We have some pretty specific needs and dislikes, to the point where a "normal" wedding DJ just isnt gonna get it. We need stuff like the Rhianna Cake song, Drake's "Hold On Were Going Home" , some of the good shit you might hear on Power 97 in NYC, but also stuff like 'Strangelove' by depeche mode (but NOT 'personal Jesus" nahmeen?), Bell Biv Devoe's "Poison", Jackson Five "Its Great To Be Here", Eddie Bo's "From This Day On", Deeper "good" disco and great 60s and 70s Rnb, Funk, etc. And also some mellow stuff like Rodriguez "Silver Words" or Barbara Masons "Im Ready:" (example ideas for for a first dance song). You know, a blend of the old dust and the hot new stuff, that avoids most of the tired overplayed crap. Of course, you gotta have the GOOD overplayed stuff like MJ "dont stop till you get enough"....
I figured, theirs a lot of talented people on here who are certainly capable, but not many who are near that area, and not many who would "lower" themselves for a wedding gig.... But for a fellow strutter? Who can pay a fair price? Well, i figured, its 8 months away, so you never know, right?
Is anyone willing + within a few hours drive of Buffalo? (Isnt Miss Bassie from Toronto?)
I know this is a big long shot, but if you could potentially do it and are willing, or just have any suggestions or ideas, please respond and/or PM me and/or email me (karlophone (at) karlophone (dot) com...
Thanks!!!!
