Review Centre: DJs & Other

"Tom played at our wedding and he was fantastic! He really did make our night. In fact our guests are still talking about the music months after the event. Not only is he very talented but a generally lovely person. I would book him again without hesitation! Thank you for making our Wedding reception so amazing. Just fabulous!!!!!! Lucy & Nigel Evans"

"Dani is a really good man to deal with, and it's been a pleasure meeting him. We were impressed with how patient and kind he was in dealing with one of our grandchildren, and his whole communication style (warm, thoughtful, good-humoured, polite) was ideal for our evening. A good range of music meant there was something for everyone (from 3 to 60+ years old), so at times the dance floor was full and at other times Dani was playing ideal tracks for the guests sat in the nearby garden area, eating supper. Nice one, Dani."

"We are now back from honeymoon, and wanted to thank Gecko DJ's for your professionalism in your performance and ease to work with. Your accommodation of our personal requests with regard to first dance music, our friends and family performers was also greatly appreciated and enabled us to personalise the event. Overall, we could not be happier with the booking. You helped our wedding generate tremendous energy and a sense of fun late into the evening and you got all the generations up and onto the dance floor. Many of our guests have written and commented on their similar feelings towards Gecko with highly positive feedback."

"We hired Mr Andrew Dosher to be the DJ at our wedding reception on 11th June, 2016, after reading his website, which I thought was straightforward and explanatory. When I contacted Andrew he was polite, helpful and easy to talk to. He managed to include all our requests on the evening, and I felt he shared the joy and excitement of the occasion. Nothing was too much trouble, as he accepted any requests and was warm and interactive with us and our guests. I felt that his services were excellent and his charges for the evening were very reasonable. Andrew is professional, punctual and reliable. The sound was very good, with a lovely light show. I would not hesitate to recommend Andrew as a DJ for any function needed, and I will definitely hire him should we have any other occasions to celebrate."

"Gordon has a superb gritty, bluesy, soul voice that really hits the spot when he lets rip…….. his arrangements really good and he has great vocals. I particularly like it when he opens up those chords and gives out with that really gravelly, soulful voice."

"We attended the event at a large hotel in Cromer. The meal was great and afterwards we went upstairs to the disco in the ballroom. Initially we were impressed with the lightshow as we walked in. The mix of music was fantastic and the D.J. fully engaged with the dancers. We all danced until we were exhausted, the D.J. noticed that and played some slower music and many couples had a romantic smooch, which was much appreciated. The music then livened up and we all went onto the dancefloor. We had a fun evening and would go again. A mature couple asked for a song and the D.J. played it and then instinctively played other songs that the couple liked. He seemed to have a 6th sense.......more likely due to experience. WELL DONE SUPERFUN."

"This was my first time using Chris and it was for a musical theatre production of 'Godspell' at the Hasland Theatre. Chris came recommended by a friend of mine (Adam Parrish) after he did the sound engineering for a concert Adam had recently done with Gordon Giltrap. Well what can I say - Chris did an amazing job! He came along for a preliminary meeting with me where we looked around the venue, talked about the requirements for the show which included a live 4 piece band and 10 wireless headset radio mics. Chris then gave a full explanation of what equipment he thought was required to make a great sound within the venue, how much time he would have to dedicate to the project and from that came up with a quote for us. We confirmed it all over email and then it was just a matter of waiting for show week to roll around. This came at the end of March and Chris arrived with all the equipment he needed and got set up ready to go. It was great that the equipment he had was all digital and took up a very small amount of space and that he was able to control it all from his iPad at the back of the theatre, since there was literally no room for him to be anywhere else. Several of the band members commented on how great it was that Chris asked them before every show about their individual monitor mixes, if anything needed changing, if Chris needed to be aware of any issues from previous nights etc and are still talking about it now as something like that which seems really obvious and simple makes a huge difference to those playing and performing. Nothing was too much trouble for Chris even when I had to ask for some additional monitors to be placed on the stage as the actors were struggling to hear the musicians he just turned up with speaker stands and monitors and got them plugged in and ready for the following nights performance. Amazing! It is also important to note Chris's attitude throughout the entire process. Putting on a musical is an exceedingly stressful thing to do and I was having to think about a lot of things throughout the run, but Chris remained calm, level-headed and had a very calming presence which was commented on by several cast members and others within the creative team, which is just what you want in a high stress environment. He was great to work with and lots of laughs were had throughout the week amongst the whole team who he worked well with. A very quick and speedy break down and get out on the Saturday night wrapped everything up nicely. Thanks so much for the time and effort you put into making our show sound amazing and we really cannot wait to be working with you again hopefully in the very near future."

"We had an amazing wedding day and Phil made our day extra special, he was fantastic and made it a really party atmosphere just what we wanted to celebrate our day. We would highly recommend him to make anyone's day one never to forget, and even the week/weeks after he still posted pictures and videos on our Facebook page of our day, fantastic service. "
