Why Choose DJ BlackOut?
With over 15 years in the entertainment industry, DJ BlackOut brings unparalleled expertise, energy, and professionalism to every event. As an international DJ, I have had the privilege of performing for A and B-list celebrities and audiences worldwide, from intimate gatherings to large-scale events of up to 40,000 people. My experience includes five years of delivering engaging performances for elementary, middle, and high schools, making me a versatile choice for a variety of occasions.
What Makes DJ BlackOut Stand Out?
• Customized Musical Experience:
I specialize in creating tailored musical experiences that resonate with each unique audience. Whether it’s a school dance, pep rally, or a corporate celebration, I ensure that the music reflects the energy and vibe of the event.
• Professionalism and Reliability:
Clients can count on me to be on time, prepared, and ready to deliver a memorable performance. My background in project management (PMP certified) ensures a seamless execution, from planning through to the final track.
• Global Reach with Local Connection:
As a military DJ with a background in international events, I understand how to connect with diverse audiences while keeping the experience personal. My military clearance and experience working with high-profile clients assure a trustworthy partnership.
• Flexible and Budget-Friendly:
I believe in delivering high-quality entertainment that fits within your budget. I am committed to working with clients to create a package that meets their needs without sacrificing the experience. Rates and packages are discussed in detail during in-person or phone consultations to ensure transparency and satisfaction.
Experience You Can Trust
From leading school tours to collaborating with top-tier artists, my passion for music and dedication to entertainment make DJ BlackOut the ideal choice for any event. Let’s create unforgettable memories together.

As the Principal of Cedarwood Elementary, I had the pleasure of working with DJ BlackOut from 2022 to 2024, and I can confidently say he made every event unforgettable for our students, parents, and staff. His ability to create a fun, energetic atmosphere is unmatched, and he went above and beyond in every way.
DJ BlackOut didn’t just bring the music—he brought joy. His smoke and light shows were a huge hit with the kids, who couldn’t stop talking about how cool they were. The games he set up were the highlight of our events, bringing everyone together with laughter and excitement. Parents and staff joined in the fun, dancing alongside the children, which created a true sense of community.
What really set Carl apart was his generosity. At holiday events, he provided thoughtful gifts for the children, making each celebration extra special. His attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to ensuring every attendee had a great time were evident at every event.
If you’re looking for a DJ who can transform an ordinary event into an extraordinary experience, DJ BlackOut is the one to call. He’s more than just a DJ—he’s a true entertainer who leaves lasting memories. I can’t recommend him highly enough!

I had the pleasure of working with DJ BlackOut at Sarah’s birthday party, and I have to say, he didn’t just make the night incredible for the guests—he made it great for the staff, too! From the moment he arrived, Carl was professional, kind, and full of positive energy. He went out of his way to ensure everyone was having a great time, including the staff, which really stood out to me.
Throughout the night, Carl kept the party atmosphere electric with a perfect mix of Pop, Hip-Hop, and Top 40 hits that had everyone dancing. But what impressed me the most was how attentive he was to making sure the attendees showed appreciation to the staff. He even made sure people tipped us, which was incredibly thoughtful. And on top of that, he personally tipped me for my service, which meant a lot.
It’s rare to work with someone who cares equally about the guests’ experience and the team working behind the scenes. If you’re looking for a DJ who brings not only incredible talent but also a big heart, DJ BlackOut is the one to call. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat!

I hired DJ BlackOut for my 21st birthday party, and I can’t say enough good things about my experience! From the moment I reached out, Carl was professional, responsive, and genuinely excited about making my party special. He listened to my preferences and created a playlist that perfectly matched the vibe I wanted—high-energy, fun, and unforgettable.
On the night of the party, Carl absolutely delivered! He seamlessly blended Pop, Hip-Hop, and Top 40 hits, keeping everyone on the dance floor the entire time. His energy was contagious, and he had an amazing ability to read the crowd and keep the momentum going. Even my friends who usually don’t dance were having the time of their lives!
If you’re looking for a DJ who is not only incredibly talented but also a joy to work with, I 100% recommend DJ BlackOut. He made my birthday party a night I’ll never forget, and I’m already thinking of excuses to hire him again!
