Tim was incredibly professional and easy to work with, from the moment I got a quote from him through the event itself. He was very punctual in his response, very amenable to our playlists requests, and kept the energy up at our event without being obtrusive or too much. It was exactly what we wanted from the DJ. And, his playlist was incredible--loved all the choices he played throughout the night. Highly recommend him as a DJ for events. - Toyota Mirai Event, Petersen Automotive Museum, LA, CA

Tim flew in to Chandler, AZ from L.A. to help me execute a Fire & Ice themed New Year's Eve party. I picked him up from the Airport and after just a little bit of getting to know him I could tell this guy was an adamant professional and a seriously good human in general. Tim was asking questions in a manner that showed he really cared about my guests' experience. I only wish he lived in AZ so we could have him at our places lighting it up all the time.

Tim put his DJing skills to work at the entrance to our annual trade show (something a little different from his usual gigs). He did a fantastic job of getting the crowd pumped for walking the show floor. Tim tailored his playlist to suit the audience and the event while keeping the sound to a level that wasn't too loud (we had a registration desk in close proximity). His professional and compact set-up created a smooth and high-quality performance within a limited amount of space. Tim's pleasant demeanor made him a pleasure to work with and... he showed up on time! All in all, he created a vibrant atmosphere that well suited our event. If I might say, he rocked it!
