Overview
Hi, I’m Adonai (Donnie) a Toronto-based DJ with 13+ years of experience across weddings, corporate events, lounges, and brand activations. I bring nightlife-level energy with a clean, professional approach: smooth transitions, smart pacing, and music that fits your crowd.
I play R&B, Hip-Hop, House, Pop, Dancehall, Afrobeats, and more — always tailored in real time. Past clients and venues include the Royal York, Shangri-La, and Bar Mordecai, plus major events like TIFF and The Queen’s Plate.
If you want a DJ who reads the room, keeps things tasteful, and still makes it feel like a party, I’ve got you.

December 27, 2025Donnie will make your night for any event
Donnie is the definition of a professional DJ, simply tell him the age of your guests and the vibe you are going for and let him go to work - he will not disappoint. We had Donnie for our annual Christmas party of about 90 people, he was professional, punctual and above all, extremely talented. I highly recommend Donnie for any event, big or small as he truly enjoys his craft and is an absolute pleasure to work with - I would not hesitate to hire again in the future!

November 24, 2025Amazing DJ! Had Everyone Dancing!
We had Donnie for a 26th birthday party, and he absolutely killed it! He played the perfect mix of nostalgic throwbacks and current hits, which was exactly what we asked for! The dance floor was packed almost the entire night. Everyone kept saying how great the music was. Super professional, with great energy and easy to work with. Highly recommend him for any event!

DJ AD was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, he was professional, fun, and totally in tune with what we wanted. The music was perfect, the dance floor was packed all night, and the vibe was incredible. Guests are still raving about how much fun they had! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ — highly recommend!

What to expect
When you hire Donnie, you’re getting a professional Toronto DJ who runs your event like a pro—not just someone who plays songs. Expect a tailored music plan, smooth mixing, and a clear timeline approach that keeps the night flowing.
For weddings: I support the full day—from ceremony audio, cocktail hour, and grand entrance to first dance, speeches, and an energetic dance floor. I can provide MC services (tasteful, not cheesy), coordinate cues with your planner/venue, and keep key moments on time.
For corporate and private events: I create the right atmosphere for networking, brand activations, and celebrations—then build energy strategically when it’s time to party. Professional sound, clean setup, and polished presentation are standard.
Reliability & logistics: I show up early, work well with vendors, and come prepared with backup music and gear so there’s no “what if” panic on your big day. Clear communication, clear scope, and a smooth booking process.
