His favorite foods are tacos and chicken fried steak, and his favorite snack is a Dole Whip from Disneyland! Want to know more? Just ask!

Over the years Thomas has created and continues to refine a meticulous process that in short, involves getting to know his clients on a multitude of levels. We are not talking about “give us your favorite music” type questions and quite frankly, it isn’t for everyone. Some clients want to pick a DJ and answer minimal questions and have little communication prior to the event. While we respect everyone’s preferences, that just isn’t our style because it doesn’t lead us to our best work. Sure we provide beautiful lighting options and crisp clear sound, but those aren’t differentiating factors. We are a professional private event entertainment group that serves clients who want to remember and be remembered for their celebration. Our best work is done when we are given creative freedom and have direct access and opportunity to get to know you beyond the type of music you like to lose your mind to and when you are willing to invest in the success of their event and are selective about who you trust with certain roles.

Investing this much time and creative energy into each and every event’s success means that we can’t take on the quantity of events that many other DJ’s can so while others may boast about doing a certain number of events in a given year, our approach forces us to cater to a smaller niche market and as a result we will sometimes turn down certain work opportunities if it’s not the ideal situation for all involved parties and the significant investment of resources that each will be required to make. Our commitment is to not be a good fit for most but instead to be a perfect fit for an exclusive few.
