I would recommend Madcap Productions to anyone who might be in need of a DJ! I hired him last May for my wedding and he was wonderful! He was always willing to answer any questions I had and was always available when needed. Cost was a huge factor in my wedding and I was pleased with the price I paid!

He kept the party dancing until the very end. Absolutely would recommend him to anyone needing a confident and professional DJ

Andrew was a friendly and professional young man with a great response to our needs. He made the evening enjoyable without making the DJ job about himself. I would recommend him for any occasion for your needs.

We hired Andy to DJ our wedding and it just so perfect. From when we first booked him until the wedding date, he was awesome and accommodating. When the big day finally rolled around, Andy showed up to the venue so early and set up his DJ station. But unlike a lot of DJs, Andy really knows how to make the perfect setup. Wires were kept out of the way of guests, the lighting was perfect, and he was just a consummate pro all night. There was not a single problem to be had all night. A plan perfectly executed. He read the energy of the crowd perfectly, knowing when to speed it up and slow it down (but mostly speed it up haha). Not sure why I would need to hire a DJ again, but if I did, it would be Madcap Productions all the way!

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I graduated from Ball State University's Music Media Production program whose curriculum encompasses live and studio sound, electronic maintenance and interfacing, lighting production, and various related classes. Additionally, I have spent several years volunteering at venues and festivals to gain experience in event production before I ventured into producing events myself (and now have done over 100 independently since).

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    In mid-2012, I started a group for music producers to develop their work that led into founding my first music festival in Muncie, IN (where I went to college). After that first event, I became fascinated with every facet of event production and snowballed into many different events including trivia, stand-up comedy, art galleries, and (of course) bigger musical events. Throughout those projects, I not only acquired a vast sum of experience, but also the equipment to produce those projects on my own without any rental assistance. At the end of 2017, I decided to add weddings to the repertoire of experiences and never looked back.
