My mf guy!

You might have mentioned this in a previous video sorry. What camera are you recording with?

Cool Wedding nice job 😎😎😎

♡♡♡♡

Nice video POV. What camera are you using? What mount are you using? How are you mounting it high? Thanks for sharing your skills!

Will it work with Tidal too?

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Thanks for this, Kev! That Pop Punk Set is pure fire 🔥... Favourite crowd for sure. Most times I slide those in towards the end of the night to NOT piss off the grandparents 😅. Another great night and as stated before: I very much like the venue! Giving bar-vibes which I consider a good thing.

Love the venue! Seems like an awesome space that provides an intimate atmosphere. Also: small people let the party seem incredible even when fewer people are on the dancefloor (but I will comment on that on your other upload). I'm with you regarding setup challenges, but hey ... what don't we do for our couples, right? ;)

2 questions 1. Which record pools (or other places) do you look to for your music? Been having trouble finding a good backlog of music 2. Is Rekordbox a good choice for open format DJs? Heard the stems are iffy but in the heat of the moment does anyone even notice/care Thanks!

I love you. You're wrong though. I sleep on an EXPENSIVE BED, not money... that's on the floor :D

Great points bro!!! It's tough sometimes. Especially when you have a day job as well! We just had Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and back to my day job on Monday! Ugh! LOL! These glasses bluetooth to the 360? Which ones are these? That's dope!

Noice wun mate!!! That We are Family Edit! Nice!

Nice gig log video.

Hi DJHiKevin. That walk in the storage facility was trippy.

“Oh good, it’s still there” got me 😂

New school is so easy. If it was traditional to me 1200s were simply necessary back in the day.

I think the hardest thing about doing back to back is the voice. That's really the only part of me that I feel very real wear on. Otherwise...you get into "go" mode and you just make it happen. On the prep side? Have your library organized AF. I use Vibo and the hours I've spent organizing, removing duplicates, labeling special version...etc...has allowed me to whittle down my music prep from an hour to mere minutes. Preparation is key. I had a last minute wedding come in for this last Saturday (for one of my DJs to do - I was already booked). It took me one hour on Zoom with the couple and I had it all planned, prepped, and playlists made for every major portion of the day for my DJ so he could literally just walk in and crush it (he was on the call with me, of course). What I need to really get better at is taking days off from being available. Having a day with the family where I don't answer emails or phone calls, I don't text people, I don't check things...just disconnect. I need to work on that for '25. Or now that we're nearing the end of '24.

I just reached the end of my season. I was feeling the burn, but I wanted to be sure to give my couples the time and attention they deserve. I like to break the planning into two chunks, the specific moments and the dance requests. Then one day prior I check my own work just to double confirm nothing was missed. I really appreciate the advice on maximizing each event, and I think I needed that reminder. Thanks for making this honest and sincere video.

Hell MF yeah, Broski. 3 in a row is brutal. BUT, if you have an assistant to share the load and keep ya company they're totally doable. Been rocking 3 in a row solo for a long time and it's grueling. Mad respectttttttttttttt keep the dank vids coming, My G!

Appreciate you all literally watching me walk and talk. Stay successful and hope you are crushing your season. WE OFFICIALLY HAVE ONLY 9 WEDDINGS LEFT FOR THE YEAR! but 4 in 5 days lol.

Great video. I'm actually sitting here on Sunday Morning (11/3), doing prep for my Wedding on 11/16, I like to type up my day of cheat sheet (I condense our online planner into a 1-2 page PDF and send it to the other vendors) 2 weeks before the Wedding. Then throughout the week, I put together my playlists for the following weekend, while playing the current week's playlists in the background. .

Prepping has always been the reason every wedding is a success. I spend all week on each mix. Triple checking every detail.I remember when we used to have “wedding hangovers” and at the same time “wedding withdrawal” lol. It’s so addictive yet when that day off comes after so many in a row…is the best feeling & well needed healing time. 🤙🏻🤘🏼

You're a good person. Thanks for caring.

Agree Broski.

I agree that skills are more important than new fancy equipment. With that said, for those of us that are skilled, better equipment, better presentation, equals more money.

So for the cocktail hour thing. I have a wireless setup that runs aux from my main setup to the cocktail speaker, so I don’t even have to leave my booth to make an announcement. I’m still learning to dial it on to sound good, but it makes it so easy

Love the Community reference 😂 #sixseasonsandamovie

All hail lord SYNC BUTTON!!!!!

Well said man!

Great hot topics mate! I'm def on your side with absolutely all of that! What I'm not on your side with is how your camera searches for focus after it finds you... Like BRO, WTF? lol Since you're not moving, can you not lock in that focus to your and turn off auto focus? Just sayin... Keep killin it w/ the videos man!

all good advice

i think the sync debate is done now or at least it should be

What speakers are you using?

Its funny when i hear DJ's cringe about playing line dances. Go to any black wedding, BBQ and dont play a line dance. See what happens.

I HAVE 2 BACKUP WITH ONLINE SERVICES MY PHONE AS A HOTSPOT AND I HAVE A BATTERY POWER STARLINK SETUP WHEN I HAVE OUTSIDE GIG AND NO POWER OR WIFI NEAR I HAVE NEVER HAD IT FAIL ON ME WHEN I USE IT.

Maybe you can talk about stems? I don't think it's super controversial, but important to discuss

A great vlog! I’m peroanly over the gig vlogs that showcase every song that the Dj plays for the reception. Talk about set up , gear some mixing makes for great content

Next topic Mac vs PC laptops for DJing

More nuggets!!! Thx fam.... you hit on a lot of the topics people don't want to speak on, and oddly some of the stuff I do use too. In my opinion to sum it up it is like apple vs android, you have apple dj's and android dj's. Both are dope; but it's what your preference is. What kills me is age old fight of lightbar vs spots with lighting. both work but people hate lightbars and people hate spots!!! You are right there are so many myths too.... like you said and The great DJ Jazzy Jeff said, it don't matter what you rocking on as long as the party is rocking. Salute dude and you need a podcast too!!!!!

I earned the sync button 😂

Killer advise my man. Great info!

For the wedding Djs -One thing that’s been a huge problem for me lately is getting an 8 to 12 hour playlist for the dance floor portion, even after explaining to my couples we only have 2 1/2 to sometimes 3 hours of dancing. Which songs are more important? If they would just give me a direction to go in with genres or at minimum an hour playlist It would make it so much easier not to have to download so much music, to which a large number of those tracks get trashed considering I know I won’t be using them.

New Cupid! Time For A Change!🤪🤪🤪 🤪🤪🤘🏼🤪🤪🤪🤪 They Also Wanted Freestyle That’s when you know you old!!! Spring Love Come Back Tooo Meeeeeee 💎 Can you play Diamond Girl? We’re Leaving Soon 😂

Need some DJ advice. How many times is too many times to mix in Three 6 Mafia?

I don’t know ow what any of the buttons do. Thx Kevin

Hi DJHiKevin. Great talking points

Great video, Kevin Sync is great but not perfect. Skills is what pay the bills not the gear. Also, for my larger events (wedding) assistant is a must.

Great stuff @DJHiKevin I love sync. it frees my hands to do so much else. I started in '88 where sync was my finger speeding or slowing the vinyl on belt drive tables lol. Now with modern tools, I can add Qing, stems, FX, into the mix, and transition faster. I still listen and take over manually as sync WILL fail at times. That is wear knowing how to do it is important.

Did you just say.... "whats up babies"......................?!? SMH
