DJ Profiles Each Week Starting September 6th!

Talent Profiles Each Week!

Washington DC has some of the most talented and unique musicians on the planet. These musicians approach their passion with an attitude that pushes them to perfection and beyond. They understand their goal, their audience and are determined to entertain them. Many times this is done for hours on end and without a single break or a stop in energy. The excitement that is generated from their detailed precision and execution of tracks at 110, 115, 125 and sometimes 130 beats per minute (BPM) or greater makes them the center of attention. Yes, they are the center of attention, even if they are usually just heard and not scene. You have males and females who go beyond just their physical look and imposing presence, but they also know that if they do not do a good job, then you are not going to request to hear them again, and again.

My purpose of this blog is to get you to take notice and understand how they think, why they love what they do and for you to see the actual value in what they do. There are countless, and I do mean countless, of people who think that these musicians can be replaced by simply loading up all of your favorite music cuts on an mp3 player or iPod and hit shuffle. Hmmph, if it was that easy then Las Vegas would have iPod docks in all their clubs and Steve Jobs would be the number one artists in the world! We are talking about people with an incredible ear for knowing what is good, no, let me scratch that, what is funky, and I mean James Brown, Parliament, Rolling Stones, Dennis Ferrer, Dr. Dre funky, to the masses! They know, from the electricity in the air what is going to make a group of 1,000 drop and do the “Cupid Shuffle” or throw their hands “left, right, left, right” as well as “jump and wave” to “Follow the Leader”. They will get an entire crowd to say yeah in unison at the hottest clubs in Washington DC, Baltimore and Northern Virginia. Why? Because they, and by now you should know I mean Disc Jockeys, are musicians.

I had a bandleader say to me once, at a networking event for non-profits, that being a DJ is easy. I nearly punched him the mouth Mike Tyson style. Although I play the saxophone, never would I dismiss someone and their profession. Who is this guy? Not anyone that we wish to acknowledge here at DJ Washington DC or at Disc Jockeys On Call. You can also be sure that they will not be a featured talent in the upcoming months. THEIR IGNORANCE IS WHY ENTERTAINERS GET DEGRADED TIME IN AND OUT! This is done by various people and institutions in the area that want the most out of their investments but are constantly squeezing the creative juices out of DJ’s. You can’t put professionals with amateurs and now, your entertainment has become your weakest link. That is an absolute fact that you can take to the bank.

Now, let’s move past the venting segment of this post and get on to the primary purpose. I want each and every one of you to begin following our blog because beginning each and every Monday, starting September 5^th of this year, we will feature a DJ talent who works and resides in the Washington DC area. We will interview them and have them to provide a true and unique perspective on what they do, their approach to different types of events and why you should consider their services. Yes, this is a very exciting time at DJOC and we are looking forward to your being a part of this incredible experience. Who will be the first DJ profiled? Check us out on September 5^th to find out!
