Real Life Events: Marriage Enrichment Event Chino Hills (Los Angeles Dj Serving Burbank, Glendale and Hollywood) (Bay Area Dj serving San Jose, Gilroy and Morgan Hill)

I did this event and I was given two songs to play and with two genres not to play: No gangster rap and no woman bashing songs. That is the first time I had those two requirements. Usually at a school you have to play songs with no profanity and with good messages. So a lot of the newer music has content that maybe questionable. When in doubt, then its best to go old school. When the event started I went with Motown to set the mood. Motown gets people moving and in a festive mood. Then during the dinner portion we went with some classic slow songs and r&b so people could talk at regular levels and not have to speak too loud over the music.

During the night, they had to make many announcements and my microphone was ready to go. It did make it hard during the dance set since it is all about momentum but people stayed on the dance-floor. The host was running the event so I let him run the event. I would have loved to mix the hour and half music set non stop but there had to be announcements. But after each announcement I would have to make sure I had sure jam in the batter box to lead with.

Once again it was the Latin music that got everyone on the floor. I prepped for 70s and 80s and some 90s but going with cumbias was the way to go.
