Welcome to the news page. I try to take at least a couple of photos at each gig so that you can see exactly what you can expect if you decide to book us for your event.
For more news, why not take a look at the DJ Taylor Taylor Facebook Page, and remember to “like” it so that you can keep up to date with what’s going on at Taylor Taylor Mobile Discos.
Whilst I’m on a roll uploading videos, here’s another from last month just showing a quick snippet of Jenny & Hedley’s wedding reception mobile disco in Sutton Basset, Leicestershire.
Jenny and Hedley were more inclined to rock and indie music, so I made sure there was plenty of that in the during the evening, but they also wanted some party classics thrown for good measure so that the whole family could get on the dance floor together… And they did!
Back a good few months ago I bought a new camera so that you lovely people could see what happens at a Taylor Taylor mobile disco or DJ booking… This video was filmed on the new camera’s first outing, but it’s taken a little while to get round to editing it together!
In the video you can see our giant video screen playing music videos, but it was also used earlier in the evening to display a photo slide show of the birthday girl. You can also see a starlit LED dance floor in the video, which we can supply if you would like one for your event.
Weddings, corporate events and birthdays are the main reasons I find myself out DJ’ing with the mobile disco set-up. But this was definitely a new one on me; the “I’ve just been appointed as a judge” party!
The usual mobile disco was set up along side the giant video screen to play music videos. The music videos provided a great talking point at the start of the night, and a great moment later on in the night was when all the girls started copying Beyonce’s dance moves when I played her “Single Ladies” video- very funny, if only I’d thought to take a few photos!
I was provided a really eclectic list of music ranging from Whitney Houston to S Club 7 to MGMT to Flo Rida. I personally love DJ’ing for people who love such a wide range of music, it always makes for a really interesting night, where you never know what will get requested next.
The whole photo album is on the facebook page if you’d like a look. And whilst you’re there, don’t forget to “like” Taylor Taylor mobile discos.
With wedding season now in full swing, I’v been so busy lately that I haven’t updated this section for a while. But there are plenty of photos from recent DJ gigs, so I’ll try and get them all up here within the next day or two so that you can see what I’ve been up to recently. You’ll get to see the new lights I mentioned a little while ago in full swing, and I might even mention the top-of the-line speaker system that we’ve just upgraded to.
This was Katie & Henry’s wedding reception at the start of the month, Henry works in the exhibition industry, and looking at the photos below you can see that he has done some serious work with theme and decorations! Henry chose Taylor Taylor mobile discos because he wanted a top quality DJ and mobile disco with a look that wouldn’t detract from the theme, and hopefully that’s just what we gave him!
They provided a suitably old-fashioned printed cloth and hand-painted wooden sign to help keep the disco equipment in the theme, I really wish I’d asked to keep that “Mr DJ” sign!
All the photos from the night are on our over on the facebook page, don’t forget to ‘like’ us.
Last year we upgraded our sound system from good quality, industry standard components to one of the best speaker makes and models that money can buy (see our equipment page for more info) and now we’ve just done the same thing for our lighting system.
We’ve just purchased a pair of “Efx-600″ lights from the worlds premier lighting manufacturer, “Martin”. These guys produce a lot of the spectacular lights that you see on TV sets and in the world’s top night clubs. The lights will really take our show to the next level, and we’ll be sure to add a few videos from the next few gigs that we use them at.
Last night we were at a very nice hotel in Quorn, just near to Loughborough, DJ’ing and providing the mobile disco for a wedding reception.
The bride and groom had actually already got married in Las Vegas a few weeks before so we provided our 6 foot video screen to show a slideshow of photos from their big day across the pond.
Also, half way through the evening I was asked to call all of the guests outside for a surprise… Fireworks! A very nice idea that went down well with the guests – not something supplied by us, but it might give you a bit of inspiration if you’re planning a wedding reception at the moment.
Last night we were at a rather posh hotel in Leicester city centre for a surprise 40th birthday party. The gentleman’s wife had booked us through one of the largest entertainment agencies in the East Midlands and provided a list of her husband’s favourite songs. Alternative 80s, 90s and 00s music was the order of the night and all of the tracks chosen went down really well with the crowd. I used those requests as a starting point to choose plenty of other jump-around indie and rock music for the rest of the set.
Here’s a quick snap of the set up before everybody arrived for the big surprise!
As well as mobile discos, I also DJ in bars, pubs and clubs. I’ve recently started a new Friday night residency at a bar in Melton, Leicestershire. The brief is to play all the latest music along with classics from the 80s and 90s too, so that’s exactly what I’ve been doing!
Here’s a few more photos from a recent wedding at a rather nice hotel in Leicester city centre. We provided the disco but worked along side a band. Also in the photos you can also see some great LED up-lighting around the edge of the room which we can also provide.
It’s been a busy old time, but finally I’ve got round to using the new camera! Hurrah!
These photos were taken at a 40th birthday party in, of all places, a doctors waiting room! We came in and transformed the room for an 80s theme our mobile disco with giant music video screen playing all the hits of era. You can also see here a starlit LED dance floor and some very effective LED up lighting, both of which we can supply for your event. Just drop us a line for more information.
Well, technically it was a couple of weeks ago now, but I was fed up of grainy, blurry photos and videos that didn’t really do our fantastic mobile disco service justice. Stand by for fantastic, crisp and vivid pictures and video from future gigs… Once I figure out how to use the camera, that is!
Last night we were providing another wedding mobile disco, in Leicestershire this time, and had another fantastic night. Here’s just a quick video showcasing the video screen, as well as some of guests having a great time on the dance floor.
Here’s a quick little video from a wedding a couple of weeks ago; luckily I’m a better DJ than I am film maker! Wobbly camera work aside, it showcases our giant 6 foot video screen in all of its glory.
Also that day, we were given a memory stick with pictures of the bride and groom on. They were shown as a slide show during the wedding breakfast along with accompanying background music. The best-man even included a video that he’d made as part of his speech, which went down very well indeed!
