About Us

DJ Ronn P

Ronn Perez aka “DJ Ronn P” has been DJing and promoting events since the early 80’s—ever since he saw Grandmaster Flash (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five) perform his DJ wizardry. A television performance of Grandmaster Flash inspired Ronn to commandeer the family “record player” and mimic the then “new” and fascinating artistry. Thus began the many days & nights of “scratching” 33 & 45 rpm discs as he slowly drove his family crazy! Love of detail and perfection drove Ronn to master the Art—and eventually led to Ronn establishing himself as one of the busiest DJs for block/house parties across the city and throughout his teens. During this time, Ronn gained respect for his DJ skills while learning acumen and ethics as a businessman.

DJ Dane

From an early age, Dana was impressed by the control of and respect commanded by DJ’s--their ability to “move the crowd” and excite the masses through the use of music. At age 12, while watching a local DJ perform at a neighborhood block party, young Dana saw a vision of his future. This was an impression that would last the rest of his life! The fluidity displayed by the DJ--playing one hit song after another--mesmerized Dana. That’s when Dana knew he wanted to possess that same power…to grab, carry, and reshape the emotions of an entire crowd; all within a matter of minutes. He began by creating “mix tapes” for friends who trusted him—not only for his music selections, but for his “good ear for music.”

What is the secret of our success

Communication

Before we DJ any event we carefully discuss with you the type of music you want to hear and the atmosphere that you are trying to create. So you’ll provide the dots with your ideas and expectations and we’ll connect them with our experience, knowledge of & expertise in music and events.

Professionalism

We understand that it takes more than just talent to be a DJ in this day and time. When you choose a DJ for your event you should have complete confidence in the service you choose to spend your hard earned money on. In addition to being accomplished DJ’s, we also possess degrees in Business Management.

Respect

We take particular pride in only playing the edited version of a song. So no one young or old will be offended by some of today’s music that the audience may request.
