About This Project

Reference Of Events Hosted

This is a list of some clients and their major shows that I have done in recent years to events as far away as March 2007.  I started to DJ in 1989 during weekends and holidays of my undergraduate years.  8 years ago I started hosting events full-time.  The events that I host can be a simple one-man roadshow, playing music and making promotional announcements for the event to a formal Master of Ceremony (MC) on stage.  I do also provide voice-overs (VOs) for events, trailers, fashion shows and advertisements.
