INTRODUCTION TO CUTHS DJ SERVICES :

 

HI THERE AND THANKS FOR TAKING A FEW MINUTES OUT TO READ ABOUT

CUTHS DJ SERVICES.  THIS WEBSITE IS DESIGNED TO GIVE YOU A BRIEF INSIGHT INTO WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER AND WHAT I’M ABOUT.

 

BASICALLY I CAN OFFER YOU AN ABSOLUTELY TOP EVENING OF MUSIC FOR ALL ERAS, GENRES, STYLES AND THEMES, AT JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE YOU CAN THINK OF.

 

PUT SIMPLY - I’M ABOUT QUALITY OF MUSIC AND PRESENTATION, ALONG WITH THE VERY BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE BUSINESS.

 

I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THE LOCAL MUSIC SCENE SINCE 1985.  BACK THEN I HAD A ‘MORRISEY’ HAIRCUT AND PLAYED A RATHER FAST/THRASH BASS LINE IN A PUNK BAND.  I HAVE BEEN IN MANY BANDS OVER THE YEARS, PLAYING BASS GUITAR, IN ALL SORTS OF MUSIC STYLES, FROM PUNK, DISCO AND ROCK TO SOUL, FUNK AND SWING. NOW YOU’D FIND ME WITH A GRADE ONE HAIRCUT PRACTISING ON A DOUBLE BASS TO BIG BAND SWING MUSIC.  MY, HOW THINGS CHANGE.

 

MY DJ THING STARTED MANY YEARS AGO, AND I HAVE DJ’D EVENTS FROM SMALL CHURCH HALL DO’S TO WEEKLY HOTEL FUNCTIONS, ENGAGEMENTS TO WEDDINGS, HOUSE PARTIES, GARDEN PARTIES, 30TH, 40TH 50TH BITHDAYS AND EVEN RETIREMENT PARTIES, SPRING / SUMMER BALLS AND MANY OF GUERNSEY’S LARGER EVENTS SUCH AS CHARITY BALLS AND MAJOR CHRISTMAS FUNCTIONS WHERE THERE MAY BE UP TO 700 PEOPLE ATTENDING. 

 

I DON’T FIND IT NECESSARY TO TALK TOO MUCH OVER CHOONS.  I DON’T BELIEVE YOU NEED SOMEONE TELLING YOU THE NAME OF EACH SONG AS IT INTERUPTS THE PARTY FLOW.  I’LL HAPPILY SPEAK OVER THE MIC WHEN IT’S NECESSARY, NO PROBLEM, BUT ONLY IF IT’S REQUIRED OR NEEDED.  WHAT I WILL DO IS PLAY QUALITY CHOONS ALL NIGHT, WITHOUT OVERPOWERING YOU WITH UNNECCESSARY CHAT.

 

BEING IN THE LOCAL SOUL/FUNK BAND, ‘TOP BANANA’, WHICH WAS MAINLY A FUNCTION TYPE BAND, TAUGHT ME A GREAT DEAL ABOUT WHAT’S INVOLVED AND HOW TO PUT ON AND RUN A TOP FUNCTION/PARTY.  IT HAS SNOWBALLED SINCE THEN FOR ME REALLY.

 

IN NOVEMBER 2006 I DECIDED TO GO PUBLIC WITH ‘CUTHS DJ SERVICES’ AND TURN MY HOBBY INTO AN EARNER.

 

AND SO BEGINS THE NEXT CHAPTER IN MY MUSICAL LIFE.

 

 

ATTENTION TO DETAIL & CUSTOMER SERVICE :

 

YOUR WEDDING / PARTY / FUNCTION IS A BIG OCCASION FOR YOU.  I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET MARRIED IN MARCH 2005. I CAN APPRECIATE AND UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH WORK, ORGANISATION AND WORRY THERE IS WHEN IT COMES TO PUTTING ON SUCH EVENTS. IT IS MY PROMISE TO YOU TO TAKE ONE OF THOSE WORRIES AWAY – THE DJ. 

 

I HAVE WITNESSED AND HEARD OF SO MANY PARTIES WHERE THE DJ IS JUST NOT PREPARED FOR THE SORT OF CROWD THAT IS ATTENDING, NOR DO THEY KNOW HOW TO READ A CROWD OR EVEN HAVE MOST TYPES OF MUSIC WITH THEM TO PLAY.  THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN WITH CUTHS DJ SERVICES.  WHEN I DO A JOB – I DO IT WELL.

 

I PRIDE MYSELF ON EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE BOTH IN MY DAILY WORKING LIFE AND MY DJING. I KNOW GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE WHEN I SEE IT, AND FURTHER MORE – HOW TO GIVE IT.

 

 

MY TOYS  :

 

I CURRENTLY USE COMPACT DISC FORMAT FOR MY MUSIC.  AS AT OCTOBER 2006 I HAVE AROUND ONE THOUSAND CD’S IN MY COLLECTION.  AS WELL AS CD, I USE MINI DISC AND IPOD FOR MUSIC. WITH DOWNLOADS AVAILABLE AND MUSIC LIBRARIES, JUST ABOUT ANY TYPE OF MUSIC IS AVAILABLE TO SOURCE.
