How much Spanish music do you play versus English Music at an Event? (Los Angeles Dj Serving Burbank, Glendale, Santa Clarita, Pasadena) (Also serving the Bay Area).

I recently did a multicultural wedding of a Mexican bride with a white groom. How can you make everyone happy? Do you do 50 percent Spanish and the other half English? You cannot really say I want a certain percentage of kind of music for any event because it is unpredictable.

 

This is what I do: I play 2 to 3 songs of one language and get a read of the crowd. If they are really getting into then you keep on feeding them. But at the same time you do not want to get too long on one type of music. Then you can throw in a Spanish Banger. The good thing about Spanish Music is that there is a lot of cross over that White folks are familiar with the type of music. I feel you can get away with playing more Spanish music. You can play some salsa and then switch it up with Merengue then you can do some reggaeton then you can go into some English Hip hop.

 

Going back to our last English/Spanish wedding, I found we played like 70 percent of Spanish and it was a success. Could we have played more English? Yes, we could have but as a dj you have to read the crowd and give them what they want.

 

When it comes to finding the right dj, then you found Black and White Affair (www.bwadj.com) to get your Spanish Latin Party to next level. We are not a dj service but we are a dj experience.
