Why choose Mike Greene?

Mike is a seasoned professional DJ and “Master of Ceremonies” with over 25 years experience of providing quality DJ entertainment in the Charleston area. You can rest assured his attention to detail in helping plan your event, the care he takes in developing the reception “outline”, as well as the skill he exhibits organizing the music will result in a successful and truly memorable celebration.

How loud do you play the music?

One of the greatest complaints about bands and DJs is that they play the music too loud.  This should never happen!  Controling the volume is one of the skills of an experienced DJ. The speakers are positioned for proper sound coverage to allow the music to be powerful enough for dancing and yet comfortable for conversation throughout the rest of the room.

Some venues or events may require additional sound reinforcement or may even require an additional speaker to be in a separate room. All this is possible.  The sound system is set up to fit the occasion. Your music is presented with fullness and depth.  The sound quality is superb.

Do you take breaks?

No. Unlike a band there are no breaks... the music is continuous.

Can we choose the music to be played?

Yes, of course you can.  This is your day. Your favorite music is a big party of the event. Your music choices are very important and the pre-event planner will address your choices and preferred music. Keep in mind the music and the flow of songs is planned to enhance the various elements of your event. Through many years of experience Mike has learned that to keep the atmosphere happy and the dance floor moving there are many factors. This includes not only the music played, but when and how the songs are mixed together and the interaction of the Master of Ceremonies.  In the “planner” you may provide a list of "must play" songs and a list of "play if possible" songs. Your preferences and song selections are always given the highest priority!

Is there any extra charge for setup time?

No, there is no charge for the setup or disassembly time.  Generally, arrival time is 60-90 minutes before starting. If you require an earlier set up time, a small charge may be apply.  The sound system is set and checked and ready to go before the 1^st guest arrives.

Can we have a "do not play" list?

Absolutely. And, you can be assured the greatest care is taken to avoid any selections that could be considered beyond the limits of good taste. 

What if we want a song that you don't have?

If the selection is not in the current library, every effort will be made to aquire it.  Of course you are welcome to provide “special” music on CD in our planning phase.


Do you carry backup equipment?

Yes. Even though the very finest “State-of-the-art” sound equipment is employed (Sony, Mackie, NuMark, Yamaha) a good DJ is always prepared. Critical backup equipment is always brought along.

Do you offer a written agreement or contract?

Absolutely. The “contract” is straight forward and written in plain English with no “fine print” so that you can understand the terms.  It is signed by both parties and gives you the highest level of protection and dependability.  The deposit and signed agreement officially reserve your date.

How much is the deposit and when is final payment due?

Normally a $200 deposit is required along with the signed agreement to reserve your date.  The total fee for the service will be on the contract. The balance is due two weeks prior to the date of your event. Checks, cash, money order are accepted. Taking care of payment in advance works well as most clients would like to have everything taken care of early so they can relax and enjoy the event.
