DJing a High-Energy Middle School Event in Milpitas: Third Activation of the Semester

This week, I had the opportunity to DJ my third middle school event of the semester in Milpitas, and it turned out to be another high-energy success. Even though it was a quick two-hour set, the students brought incredible energy from the moment the music started. Middle school dances in Milpitas always have a unique vibe—full of excitement, fast-paced requests, and a room full of students ready to move.

For this event, I worked primarily off the school’s playlist, which they shared ahead of time. Having that list made it easy to plan the general flow, but, of course, middle schoolers love to throw in their own requests throughout the night. Between trending pop hits, fan-favorite throwbacks, hip-hop, and upbeat dance tracks, I did my best to incorporate as many requested songs as possible using the music already available on my laptop. Keeping the momentum high while juggling spontaneous requests is always part of the fun, and this crowd definitely kept me on my toes.

What stood out most was the positive energy. From the first track to the last, the students were fully engaged—singing along, forming circles, and hyping up their friends during every beat drop. These kinds of events are a reminder of why I love DJing: creating an atmosphere where everyone can let loose and enjoy the moment.

As the semester continues, I’m looking forward to more Milpitas school events and bringing the same level of excitement to each one. Whether it's working off a curated playlist or adapting to fast-moving requests, delivering a fun and memorable experience is always the goal.
