About
Hi, I’m Smith - the DJ behind Crate & Vinyl Entertainment. I’m a vinyl-only DJ based in Los Angeles, specializing in weddings and private events.
My approach is simple: thoughtful music curation, smooth transitions, and an energy that fits the room without overpowering it. I work closely with each client to understand their taste and create a soundtrack that feels personal, warm, and effortless.
Whether it’s an intimate ceremony, cocktail hour, or a full evening reception, I bring a clean, professional setup and a calm, attentive presence - so you can relax and enjoy the moment.
For couples looking to incorporate live music, acoustic guitar and vocal performances are available for ceremonies or cocktail hour upon request.
Additional booking notes
- Access to a standard power outlet near the setup area
- A small, flat space for a turntable-based DJ setup
- Shelter from direct sun or rain for outdoor events
- Reasonable load-in access for equipment setup

Set list
Rather than a fixed set list, I curate vinyl selections live. A typical flow may include:
• Warm soul, jazz, and folk during arrivals and cocktail hour
• Classic rock, Motown, and upbeat Americana as the night opens up
• Tasteful, timeless dance records when the energy calls for it
Every event is shaped by the room, the timeline, and the couple’s preferences.
Influences and inspiration
Rooted in vinyl culture, classic records, and a love of timeless songs that bring people together.
Setup requirements
I’m happy to coordinate with your venue or planner in advance to make sure the setup fits comfortably within the space.
