Elgin Smith, DJ Services

Hiring Elgin Smith as a DJ is one of the best decisions you can make! We used him for our wedding and everyone told us it was the most fun they’d ever had. His music selections is not your standard selection– Brittany Spears? no way. Miley Cyrus? forget it. The chicken dance? no thank you. He uses his massive record collection to entertain you and your guests with beats that are definitely what you want to get people out on the dance floor, but not in your typical annoying dj way. We all danced the entire time. And I’m not just saying it bc it was my wedding, but the music definitely made the night for me and my guests.

I am not one to keep up with current dance trends. It’s 2013, and I’m just now wishing somebody would teach me how to dougie. I don’t think I can twerk.
Why am I say this? I have little need in my life for a traditional DJ playing booty jams. Nope, I am much more interested in somebody with some style, that’ll get people dancing, but in a decidedly more throwback manner. It seems that Elgin Smith fits that bill.
I’ve had the pleasure of hearing Elgin Smith DJ at some different parties and gallery events, and it’s always been a good time. Funk, soul, jazz and latin dance music all blend together and create a sound that’s perfect for setting a mood, but if people are feeling a bit funky they can definitely still dance to it. He’s got a pretty solid collection, mixing genre favorites with deep cuts that you’ll swear you should have known but maybe don’t. And what’s better? It’s all vinyl! Don’t get me wrong, I definitely appreciate great DJs that can create mixes straight from their laptops, but there’s a special place in my heart for people that show up for a gig, honest-​to-​god turntables in tow.
I’ve gone from just listening to Elgin to working with him professionally, and in that transition learned that he’s easy going yet professional. He’ll ultimately do what you want him to do (even if that includes plugging in the laptop so you can hear the latest Waka Flocka or whatever it is the kids are dancing to these days), and will make sure your event goes smoothly. I genuinely appreciate his sound and his work ethic, and would hire him again without hesitation.

What a fun experience to be at a party where Elgin Smith is spinning! Such great Hi-​Fi Jazz and Soul Music choices. Can’t wait to dance to this DJ again!
Definitely great for a chill party or an all out soul music dance party!
You won’t go wrong hiring Elgin Smith!
