About

Music is so important to making an event one to remember! I love to meet the client and to make the playlist special for you. I love all types and styles of music! I am originally from the California Bay Area, now a Point Pleasant, New Jersey native. I offer professional entertainment services since 2012. Fully licensed and insured. 15 years in the business, and newly joined this site so please check out my other reviews online. I love to meet the client and tailor the experience to just what you need. I love and appreciate all music. I strive to be affordable and on time, and always prepared to put on a great show. I offer add-ons such as premium sound-system rental, lighting packages, Photo Booth, and more. I’m great on the mic as an MC, and happy to host the event from the dj booth! No event too small or too big - I'm great working from your playlist, or crafting something special based on your description.

I would like to say Thumbtack should allow the option to select ALL 5 areas of what we loved about Erik. He was amazing. I have absolutely no complainants or suggestions for improvement. He captured the culture of my family through our music, Kompa, and brought back a flood of memories for my husband and his family through a beautiful selection of songs played at our wedding. Erik has such a calming peaceful energy, and it was a blessing to work with him. He made our wedding night something to remember. He even got my mom to get up and get on the dance floor. His prices are fair and his personality is A1. If you are looking for a DJ he’s the guy that you want for any occasion. HE BRINGS THE SPIRIT that any wedding could possibly need. We will definitely be raving about him to anyone we cross paths with. Thank you again Erik. You are forever in our hearts and will always be our musical sensei🤗❤️🫶🏽

Details: Wedding • 25 - 49 guests • 31 - 50 years old • Pop • Hip-hop / Rap • R&B / soul • Top 40 • Oldies • Banquet hall or ballroom

There aren’t enough good things I could say about DJ Erik. This man is the epitome of a great time! He prepped with me the night and day of my event, meticulously crafting a CRAZY playlist. We played everything and transitioned well for my crowd: R&B, AfroBeats, Kompa, Oldies, Rap…we were never off our feet. Can’t wait to use him for my next event!

We had DJ Erik for my boyfriend’s surprise 40th birthday, he was absolutely fantastic. He showed up early, was set up and ready to go when people arrived, played song requests and had people dancing all night. He was friendly and great to have for a DJ. Multiple people have been asking me for his contact info after the party. Hire him!! Thank you so much!
