Introduction
I'm an easy-going, detail-oriented, but appropriately silly person who helps you stay on track both leading up to and during the event. I got my start in the business back in 2018 working for someone else, and went all-in to work exclusively as a DJ in 2023. I'm highly versatile in music, having served events for young, old, Indian, Greek, Italian, Israeli, Spanish, themed parties, and more! Si quieres un DJ que se pueda hablar español, simplemente necesito tiempo para escribir mis anuncios antes del evento. Aprendiendo español, y me gusta trabajar en eventos latinos. 虽然我不能用中文对话,但我可以用普通话做公告。不过我需要提前排练,所以你得提前告诉我需要说什么。至于活动中的歌曲点播,我会带一个牌子,上面说明如何直接将歌曲添加到我专门为点歌创建的Spotify歌单中。

I chose DJ Not a Panda for my wedding in November. I liked what I had read about him but when I talked to him I was so pleased with his answers to my questions, and he really put me at ease. I set up a second call with my finance and we both agreed, sight unseen or heard, that this was the DJ for us. He was very professional and easy to contact. We provided a playlist of songs that we wanted to hear, and he played them. He did intersperse some of his own, and took requests. The night was perfect. He knew how to read the crowd, and everyone was complimenting his skills. You really can't go wrong if you decide to hire him.

Details: Wedding • 25 - 49 guests • 51 or older • 31 - 50 years old • Rock • 80s • Community center • MC services

Best dj we have every seen. If we could give more stars we would. He was very detailed throughout the wedding making sure we hit each event on time. Even with the smaller crowd he kept everyone's energy up and the party going as long as he could. If we ever do anything else or someone asks for recommendation he will def be number 1 on our list

Details: Wedding • 50 - 99 guests • 13 - 17 years old • 12 years old or younger • 18 - 30 years old • 51 or older • 31 - 50 years old • Pop • Rock • Country • Top 40 • 80s • Outdoor venue • MC services

Everything about DJ Not A Panda was amazing. From the day I spoke with him about first booking him and all the way to the end of my wedding day was perfect, and more than I could have hoped for. The energy was high, people were having a great time, everything went perfectly!!!! Thank you for everything. Our day was amazing and we are so happy we booked with you. This guy communicates more than you thought you need to and makes the wedding day of your dreams :)

We had Not a Panda DJ perform at our Halloween party, and he was fantastic! The energy he brought to the event was unmatched, with a perfect mix of spooky tunes and crowd favorites that kept everyone on the dance floor. He knew exactly how to read the room, playing the right tracks at the right time, and even threw in some fun surprises that made the night unforgettable. His setup and lighting effects added to the Halloween vibe, making the experience even more immersive. If you’re looking for a DJ who knows how to elevate an event, Not a Panda DJ is the way to go!

Thank you! I try to be part of the party, not just an outsider playing music. I'm glad I could help make it a great party. ^_^
