We hired Elijah for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice! From the very beginning, he was professional, attentive, and eager to make sure everything went smoothly. Elijah truly understood the vibe we wanted for our big day and curated an amazing playlist that kept our guests dancing all night long. Beyond the music, he was great at reading the room and keeping the energy high throughout the reception. It was clear he cared about making our day special. We highly recommend More Nites Like This for any event! More...

My husband and I hired Elijah to dj our wedding and even went to get a sneak peek at jukebox r&b brunch (so much fun definitely recommend attending at least once! ) of what his style was like and let’s just say we got married 3 months ago and people are still mentioning how friendly and how his playlist was a total vibe! He was perfect with accommodating our requests and still making sure everyone had an incredible time. Beyond glad we went with him he makes everyone feel included and also makes sure they’re having a blast! More...

What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?
The secret to keeping a party dancing all night long is understanding the crowd and maintaining the right energy flow. It’s all about reading the room, knowing when to switch things up, and timing the music perfectly. I start with familiar tracks to get everyone comfortable, then gradually build the tempo and intensity, mixing in crowd favorites, unexpected throwbacks, and popular hits that people can’t resist.
It’s also key to mix genres and blend different styles of music, so there’s something for everyone. By keeping the transitions smooth and maintaining a rhythm that gets progressively more energetic, you keep people on their feet. When you sense the energy dipping, it’s the perfect time to drop an unexpected banger or a fun sing-along song to pull everyone back in.
In short, it’s about creating an atmosphere where everyone feels connected to the music, whether it's RandB, Country, hip-hop, house, or classics, and knowing exactly how to keep that energy alive until the very last song.
How would you describe your ‘style’?
My DJ style is versatile, high-energy, and crowd-focused. I’m known for seamlessly blending a wide range of genres, including Motown, RandB, hip-hop, house, Afrobeat, Top 40, and even country. Whether it's a wedding, private event, or nightclub, I curate the perfect mix to suit the vibe of the occasion.
I take a personalized approach to every event, ensuring that the music reflects the client’s preferences and enhances the overall experience. My sets are dynamic, mixing familiar hits with fresh sounds, and I’m always reading the crowd to keep the energy high. Whether it's a country favorite, a Top 40 hit, or a timeless classic, I know how to craft a soundtrack that keeps people on the dance floor.
At the core, my style is about balancing the art of creating seamless transitions and the science of understanding what keeps a crowd moving across all genres.
What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about my job is the ability to create unforgettable moments for people. There’s nothing quite like seeing a crowd come to life when the right song drops or watching a couple’s first dance as I play their special song. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that I’m contributing to someone’s celebration, whether it’s a wedding, a party, or a corporate event.
I also love the creative freedom DJing offers. Every event is different, and I get to curate the perfect soundtrack for each one. Being able to blend genres, from R&B and hip-hop to Top 40, house, and even country, keeps things exciting and fresh. The energy exchange between the crowd and me is what makes it all worthwhile—it’s an incredible feeling to be the one driving the atmosphere and ensuring everyone has an amazing time.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired to start my own DJ business after spending 9 years in property management, a career I genuinely enjoyed. However, I’ve had a burning passion for music since I was a child. I played drums in my church for 16 years, and even started a band, which really deepened my love for performing and creating music.
As much as I loved my property management career, I knew music was where my heart was. Starting my own DJ business allowed me to fully pursue my passion and channel it into something that brings joy to others. It’s been incredibly fulfilling to turn that passion into a successful business where I get to create unforgettable experiences for people at their most important events.
