Overview

I'm Wartro, a Minneapolis DJ with 10+ years and 100+ gigs, from packed clubs to pool parties, weddings, and corporate events. I've played The Fillmore, The Armory, Varsity Theater, and Green Room, and worked with top Twin Cities promoters. Clients love my range and how I read a room, keeping the dance floor locked in or easing into open format when the moment calls for it. I bring the full setup: sound system, lighting, and music. Before your event, we'll talk through the vibe you want so the night matches your vision. I also co-own Late Nite Takeout (LNTO), so I know how to build a night start to finish. Let's make it happen!

What to expect

A relaxed, professional experience from the first message to the last song. We’ll chat beforehand about your vibe and vision, and I’ll show up early, set up, and sound check. During the event I read the crowd and adjust on the fly, and I’m happy to coordinate announcements with your planner or venue. You get to enjoy your party while I handle the music.

About

I’m Wartro, a Minneapolis DJ with over a decade behind the decks. I’ve played clubs, pool parties, weddings, and corporate events, including stages like The Fillmore, The Armory, Varsity Theater, and Green Room. I love a dance floor that’s alive, and I’m at my best when I’m reading the room and giving people exactly what they didn’t know they needed to hear. Outside the booth, I co-own Late Nite Takeout (LNTO), so I understand what makes an event feel great from start to finish.

Additional booking notes

I bring a professional sound system, lighting, and my own DJ gear, plus backup equipment. I work with all genres of music and take requests, and I’m happy to follow your must-play and do-not-play lists. Wireless mic available for speeches and announcements.

Services offered

Set list

Dance music with a lot of range: house, UKG, and bass-leaning grooves, plus pop dance hits and oldies with a fresh twist, like classics remixed so everyone from grandparents to friends can find their song. For weddings, I build the night around your crowd, from dinner vibes to a packed dance floor, and I’m happy to take requests and honor your must-play and do-not-play songs.

Influences and inspiration

Rooted in house, UK bass, and UKG, with a love for everything that gets people moving, from pop dance hits to throwback classics. I bring that range to every crowd.
