DJ Prices
Here I would like to tell you something about DJ Prices and what the difference is between a "cheap Jacob" and a professional DJ.
If you're in the process of booking a DJ, you'll soon realize: DJ prices vary enormously.
From dumping offers starting at € 199 to tailor-made premium services, everything seems to be on offer. But what do you really get for your money - and what should you look out for?
What does a good DJ really cost?
Or: Why you don't get a really good party for €199 
If you're just looking for the cheapest DJ, then you're probably not in the right place.
Some agencies advertise with DJ prices from € 199 - and even claim to be able to provide a „professional DJ“ for this price.
I say quite clearly: With a DJ price of 199 € per evening – with 8 to 10 hours of pure playing time – we don't come together.
That would be in no way economical and, above all, not professional.
Have you ever seen a Porsche for the price of a used bicycle? 
The truth about DJ prices is simple:
A really good DJ - with experience, technology, quality & reliability - can be found at this price. not work. Period.
What's really behind the DJ job?
A practical calculation example - very realistic:
Preparation
-
Preliminary talk & consultation (in person or via Zoom)
-
Record music requests
-
Coordinate procedure
-
Check location
Music research & music care
-
Constantly buying new songs (legally licensed!)
-
Keep your music collection up to date & thematically appropriate
-
Compile playlists, prepare transitions
Technology & structure
-
Transportation of professional sound and lighting equipment
-
Set-up (min. 1.5 hours)
-
Sound check & light tuning
Playing time
-
6 to 10 hours of non-stop partying
-
Fulfill spontaneous music requests from your guests
-
Build & maintain the mood - live & emotional
Dismantling & return journey
-
1-2 hours dismantling time
-
Return journey (often well after midnight)
-
Often an overnight stay in a hotel or a 2-hour journey home

And what do the „cheap DJs“ do?
Most of the time:
Journey up to 20 km (everything else costs extra)
Playing time: 3 hours (thereafter + xx € per hour)
Light: 1 simple LED bar (if at all, more costs...)
Sound: cheap system from the DIY store
Invoice? Not a chance.
Music selection? YouTube playlist with commercial break 
Contract? No such thing.
With realistic effort and performance, you end up with an hourly wage of less than €4.50 - that has nothing to do with professional DJ service.
Cheap Jacob vs. professional DJ
My promise:
With me there are no fake discounts or moon prices with an alleged 50 % early booking discount.
Instead: A clear, honest price - and a genuine €50 discount for quick decision-makers who commit within 7 days.
What you get with me:
A fair, transparent offer - honestly calculated, with no hidden costs and no small print.
I have:
-
A fixed price that we discuss together
-
No hidden costs
-
No nasty surprises
-
But lots of Passion, experience and reliability
Because one thing is certain:
A good party has no place for bad music.
And: A DJ can make your party great - or ruin it.
I make sure that they will be great and unforgettable! 
What is your party worth to you?
Let's be honest: If you realistically add up everything - preparation, travel, set-up and dismantling, playing time, technology, know-how and responsibility - then some so-called DJs end up with a Hourly wage of less than € 4.50.
And quite frankly: Do you want to entrust someone with your celebration, who works for this price? 
If you're just looking for someone to play a playlist - maybe ask the host to make a Bravo Hits 56 or leave an endless Spotify playlist running in the background 
But then please don't expect a real party.
Because a DJ just does much more than just starting music:
He reads the mood Reacts spontaneously Builds the arc of suspense Brings all generations together Keeps the dance floor in constant motion And provides goosebump moments that everyone will remember for a long time to come.
My offer and my DJ prices are honest and transparent:
A fixed price, that covers everything - technology, travel, set-up, playing time. No surprises, no hidden costs. Fair service at a fair price.
Because:
Anyone can insert a CD.
But a party with soul, emotion and guaranteed dancing - only a professional DJ can do that. 💃🕺✨
