I’ve been running Ridiculous Entertainment as my main business for 14 years. I picked up DJing as a hobby when I was in high school, falling in love with hip-hop and learning to scratch records. Throughout my college years, I DJed tons of parties. I now also work in live audio engineering, record albums in my home studio, play in bands, and produce stage shows with the Baltimore Rock Opera Society (BROS). DJing weddings and private parties has been my main career path for a long time now and I still really enjoy it! Your wedding day should be a fusion of the best things in you and your partner's life together.

We could not write enough amazing things regarding our experience with Baltimore Sound Entertainment. We booked a DJ (Jeff) and a glam photo booth with them and both services were outstanding. My husband and I love house music, and it was so important that the music played at our wedding was authentically us. Jeff absolutely nailed it and our guests had a blast, calling it their first "rave wedding"! In addition, the Photo Booth turned out to be exactly what I had in mind. The "glam" filter made everyone look flawless and the attendant was kind and helpful. Guests could print as many copies as they wanted. We received the digital files two days after our wedding and now get to cherish these fun images forever. Look no further for your sound and entertainment needs!

We interviewed several DJ companies before finding District Remix, and they stood out from the very first call. We were impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine enthusiasm for understanding our vision and creating the atmosphere we wanted. They recommended we work with Michael Ramos, and it was a great fit. Michael used the playlists we created to mix together English- and Spanish-language music, from a cocktail hour and dinner with indie folk, Latin pop, Americana, country, and more to a dance floor with salsa, cumbia, Latin pop, reggaeton, top 40, and 2000s and 2010s throwbacks. Michael was attentive and executed our vision perfectly. He brought our "hora loca" to life, and our family and friends kept the dance floor packed all night. Thank you, Michael!

Overall, we had a good experience with our DJ. He arrived on time, was professional throughout the evening, and kept our guests on the dance floor for most of the night. The music flowed well, and everyone seemed to have a great time. That said, I did spend a lot of time carefully selecting songs that were meaningful to us, and I was a little disappointed that many of those selections weren't played. Some of our requested songs were included, but I had hoped more of our playlist would be incorporated into the evening. The only other issue was that, just before our grand exit, he approached us to mention that he hadn't received enough food. We had paid for a vendor meal for him, so I wasn't sure what had happened, and it didn't feel like the best time to bring it up while we were in the middle of such a special moment. Despite those concerns, he was friendly, punctual, and our guests clearly enjoyed themselves. If having a lively dance floor is your top priority, he does a good job creating a fun atmosphere.

I started as a full-time nightclub DJ and after a decade transitioned to weddings. To date I've entertained 1000+ weddings to prepare for your celebration. Many of my past clients have described me as "the most un-wedding DJ, wedding DJ there is." I don’t conform to the typical stereotypes that may lurk in your nightmares after you attended bad weddings. This includes an exaggerated voice, a bunch of inflatable props, and I do not impose line dances and tacky clichés. I focus on ensuring that your plan for the day is solid and that you are confident I understand what is expected of me. I am your DJ, your MC, and your quality control planner.

From the moment we got engaged, we knew there was only one person we wanted as our wedding DJ. He was the DJ at our friends’ wedding, which just so happens to be the wedding where my husband and I met. We’ll never forget how he had everyone on the dance floor the entire night, and we knew we wanted that same energy for our big day. But what DJ Michael Kane gave us was so much more than just a great party. He made our wedding feel personal and deeply meaningful. One moment that will stay with us forever is when he took a video I have of my late father and pulled out a sound bite of him speaking. He played it at the start of the brother-sister dance, and it felt like my father was right there with us. That moment meant the world to our family. And it wasn’t just that moment, DJ Michael Kane has a gift for reading the room and creating a vibe that makes everyone feel connected. He kept the dance floor packed all night, mixing the perfect songs and knowing exactly how to keep the energy high. Our guests are still telling us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and we know it wouldn’t have been the same without him. Beyond his talent, DJ Michael Kane is just one of the coolest, most down-to-earth people you’ll ever meet. He truly listens and cares about making your day everything you dream of and then somehow makes it even better. We are so grateful to him for giving us the gift of these unforgettable memories. If you’re looking for a DJ who will make your wedding magical, stop looking—you’ve found him. — The Redmonds

They seamlessly transitioned from beautiful live violin music during the pre-ceremony to a lively and engaging trio performance with multiple instruments for the reception. On top of that, they also handled DJ duties, which made things so convenient and ensured that every moment had the perfect soundtrack. Their talent, professionalism, and ability to read the crowd made our celebration feel effortless and full of energy. I highly recommend booking the trio option.

Hi, My name is Robert. But most people call me DJ Prime. One thing you should know about me is I love weddings. Big weddings, small weddings, outdoor ceremonies in gracious gardens, intimate funky venues, you name it, I've done them all. But don't get me wrong, no matter how many weddings are in my future, never ever will it be a matter of being there, done that. No matter how many weddings I do, all my energy goes into each. For those precious few hours I am more than just a wedding dj in the Tri state area, I'm proud to say I am part of countless couple's lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
The communication with Prime 1 Productions could have been better leading up to the wedding. While they did a decent job overall with the music and entertainment, they could have done a better job reading the vibe of the room and playing more of a variety of songs that got everyone dancing. The person I booked with was not the one who actually came to our wedding, which was a bit of a surprise. However, the DJ who did come was very nice and tried his best, even though he messed up the intro to our first dance a bit. Overall, Prime 1 Productions provided a serviceable performance, but I wish they had been a bit more in tune with the energy and preferences of our guests.

DJ Tonez absolutely nailed our reception. He had his finger on the pulse of the room all night and delivered the right songs to keep us non-stop dancing. There was never a lull on the dance floor. He seamlessly played all our random requests and at the perfect time. It was as if 2012 Ultra was bottled up & then unleashed inside our wedding reception venue. He also worked so well with the rest of our vendors and brought such a positive vibe. We felt surrounded by people who really cared about pulling off our big day!!
