Playlist
We understand and value that we play YOUR event, therefore we only play the songs that you want. Instead of asking you to submit a lengthy playlist, we have created an online library of music for your perusal. We have included the most popular songs across all major genres and allow you to choose which ones you like. All you need to do is highlight your favourites, cross out songs you dislike and add songs that aren’t on the list yet. This provides you with access to songs that may not have crossed your mind and ensures that we don’t play anything you don’t want.
In addition, we bring our own wifi to the event so we can provide music as requested, either by yourself or your guests, on the night.
Sound
Lighting & Effects
We include the following 3 lights for all functions:
1. Swarm – This is the ultimate light for a wedding. It takes the idea of a disco ball and enhances it. By adding colours, static movements and various speed settings, we can create anything from a romantic mood to an all out party!
2. Derby x – A light that shoots static beams across the dance floor and runs in sync with the Swarm (mentioned above) to solidify the vibe on the dance floor.
3. Slimpar 64 – This is a simple static light that changes colours. It is used to add to the mood, making the colours more defined. It is also very effective in creating a strobe effect. Its slim build looks more elegant than the older parcans, but remains just as effective.
Smoke – Smoke brings all the lights to life, creating a 3 dimensional effect. This is a crowd favourite
We have a range of extra lights and effects available for hire if you’re looking to add that extra touch to your dance floor or venue:
Custom Gobo – The Custom Gobo light enables you to create your own design which is laser cut and displayed on a surface in your venue. This is great for logos or couples’ names at weddings. The light can have a set colour and rotation.
Lasers – We have everything from a basic laser for small parties to full on laser shows as seen at music festivals.
Gobo – We use the intimidater Gobo lights which can move around at various speeds with different shapes and patterns. We can create anything from a water look on your dance floor to strobing patterns moving in all directions.
Parcans – These lights can be placed around your venue to add colour, really creating a warm or romantic feel. They can also be used to illuminate a display like a wedding cake or gifts table. When the party is in full swing, we can control these mood lights to sync with dance floor lights, creating an absolutely unforgettable experience as the whole room changes colour to the beat of the music.
Bubble Machine – We have a large bubble machine that can create anything from whimsical wonderland on your dance floor to an extra effect when throwing confetti.
Staging
Our stages come in a 2mx1m rectangle. They can be elevated 300mm, 600mm or 900mm from the ground. Combining these rectangles can create a variety of stages including fashion show ramps, conference speaker risers, drum risers or full band stage.
You have the option of a black or white stage including skirting around the perimeter to polish off the look.
Screening
If you are looking to show a video or slideshow to a large audience, you will need something to display it on.
TV Screens – You can hire one or two of our 50” TV’s. These will come mounted on a truss that will be illuminated, looking elegant for any occasion.
Data Projectors – For a larger audience, data projectors are perfect. Chose from any size screen up to 4×4 meters. These projectors will also be mounted on a truss.
Dance Floors
We offer a range of different dance floors. From wooden finishes to black, white or both. For weddings, we like to use the white dance floor as it creates an elegant look and reacts well to the lights.
Our dance floors can go outside or inside. When we set up outside, we include a wooden or rubber base to make sure it never comes apart while the party is going.
Guitar & DJ Combo
If you want to enjoy the thrill of a live performance but want the flexibility of a DJ this package is for you.
Our musicians have created a set that combines all the popular hits from the 60’s to the most current songs on the radio and taken out all guitar parts. Not only enjoy the performance of classic songs like “Don’t Stop Believing”, “Sweet Child O’ Mine” and “Summer of ’69” but also newer songs like “Cake by the Ocean”, “Sax” and “Uptown Funk”.
Some songs are led on a bass guitar, which adds another dynamic to the performance. Songs like “Another one bites the dust and “Can’t Feel My Face”.
