About
DJ Becks is a DJ for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Not many DJs will grab a microphone mid-set and sing over the mix. DJ Becks does, and MCs as well, which turns a standard DJ booking into something closer to a live show. The set leans on 80s and 90s favourites, R&B, hip hop, dance and house, with guitar and acoustic songs available for the quieter parts of the night. Brisbane based and comfortable in any venue, from corporate functions to birthdays and weddings, DJ Becks plays across cultures and age groups and will work with you beforehand to pin down the feel you're after. All that's needed on the day is power, a table for the decks and shelter for the gear.
The show
Most DJ bookings give you one thing. This one gives you a few. DJ Becks mixes, then picks up a microphone and sings over the top, and there's guitar in the kit as well. So the night can move from a live acoustic feel early on to a full dance floor later without a change of act. Everything's built around what you actually want the room to do, worked out with you beforehand rather than assumed on the day.
On the day
Three things from your venue: power, a table to put the DJ setup on, and somewhere the equipment is under cover. That last one matters if the party is outdoors or partly outdoors, since the gear needs protection from weather. Otherwise it's a compact setup and it doesn't take over the room.
Performance options
Three ways to book, depending on how much you want happening. Straight DJing with MC duties covered is the simplest. Add live vocals over the mix and it becomes something closer to a show. The fullest option brings acoustic songs into it as well, which suits an evening that starts over dinner and finishes on the dance floor.
Song list
Includes the hottest hits from 80’s, 90’s, rnb, hiphop, dance and house.
