About
DJ Ashley Keswick is a DJ for hire in Melbourne, VIC.
Vinyl and digital both get a workout in this DJ booth. Ashley Keswick has spent over 20 years DJing around Melbourne for weddings, engagements, birthdays, corporate functions and public events, and the crates run deep: 50s through to current releases, taking in disco, funk, Latin, reggae, techno and plenty between, with karaoke nights covered too. Bring a list of must-play songs and it becomes part of the set. Quality sound and lighting come included, and the setup asks little of a venue: reliable power and a clear, covered spot, no table needed. A Working with Children Check and full public liability insurance are held.
The show
Twenty years behind the decks around Melbourne means Ashley Keswick has seen most kinds of room and most kinds of crowd. The approach is collaborative rather than prescriptive: it's your night, so the planning starts with what you want and works out from there. Quality sound and lighting arrive as part of the booking, so you're not adding hire costs on top. What you get on the night is someone who knows how to open a dance floor and, more usefully, how to keep people on it once they're up.
On the day
Reliable mains power is the main thing. Beyond that, the DJ needs a clear patch of floor that's under cover and out of the weather, because the gear can't sit in the rain. No table needed, since that comes with the setup. If you're planning an outdoor reception or a marquee, worth checking the spot is genuinely dry rather than just shaded.
Performance options
Rather than fixed tiers, the booking gets built to match your event. The length of the night, the kind of function and what you want covered all shape it. Tell him what you're planning and the package comes back shaped around that.
