FAQs
1. What genres of music do you specialize in?
Answer: We specialize in a wide variety of genres to fit the vibe of any event! Set lists are curated based on your music preferences to keep the energy high and guests engaged, all while reading the room and including songs that take your experience to the next level. Our goal is to create a musical journey that reflects your vision and purpose for the event. Jaime’s a late 80’s baby whose favorite mashups contain nostalgic bangers from the 90s, 00s, & beyond.
2. Can you take song requests during the event?
Answer: Yes we can! We filter requests to ensure they align with the event’s overall vibe, ensuring that every track keeps the momentum going. In the planning process, we review music selections with you so we know what you must hear, as well as any songs you do not want played.
3. What if we do not want you to take song requests?
Answer: It’s your event, and your preferences matter. Please let us know so we can notate, and happily oblige. As needed, we’ll kindly communicate [with applicable guests] that no requests will be taken.
4. How do you read the crowd to keep the energy high?
Answer: As an energy producer, I am constantly tuned into the crowd’s energy. I watch their body language and reactions to the music. By blending tracks, adjusting tempo, and playing the right hits at the right time, I make sure the energy stays up and people are having a great time from start to finish.
5. What equipment do you provide for events?
Answer: I bring top-quality sound and lighting equipment that fits the needs of your venue and the vibe you're going for. We bring everything we need to be successful, and custom quote each experience to ensure every need is covered. From speakers and mixers, to lighting setups and add-ons that transform the atmosphere, we ensure a seamless technical experience so you can focus on enjoying the event.
6. Do you offer custom playlists for different types of events?
Answer: Yes, I tailor every playlist to match the theme and mood. Whether it's a high-energy corporate event, fundraiser, wedding, or mitzvah, I’ll collaborate with you to create the perfect soundtrack that matches your vision.
7. How do you handle technical difficulties during an event?
Answer: As experienced event professionals, we are well-prepared for any technical issues that may arise. We bring backup equipment and have the expertise to quickly troubleshoot any issues. Our focus is to ensure guests can hear, that the music never stops, and energy stays on point.
8. How long do you typically perform?
Answer: We offer flexible performance lengths depending on your event’s needs. Whether you need a 2+ hour DJ set with MC’d announcements, or a full 7+ hour wedding day, we tailor each proposal to fit your timeline, needs, and desired vibes.
9. Can you MC / host the event as well?
Answer: Yes! Jaime started in this industry as a professional Master of Ceremonies, so she is well versed in how to manipulate her voice to capture the attention of any room, providing larger than life energy! As an MC, it’s our job to guide your guests through key moments, narrating the day with curated announcements, and ensuring everyone is engaged throughout the experience. Having an MC is a necessity for fundraisers, weddings, and mitzvahs which require a more hands-on approach.
10. How do you create a unique experience for each event?
Answer: Each event has its own unique energy, and we thrive on bringing that vision to life. I collaborate closely with clients to understand their goals, themes, and crowd dynamics and then create a custom experience using music, lighting, and sound to amplify that energy and leave a lasting impression. Each event includes professional planning time so we can help create the perfect timeline, and learn everything we need to know to be successful!
11. How far in advance should we book you?
Answer: Due to Jaime’s limited availability, it is best to book as early as possible, especially for weekends, holidays, or popular event dates. The majority of wedding couples book at least 1 year in advance. We recommend reaching out at least 3-6 months in advance to secure your date and talent. Once Jaime is booked, she’ll schedule aligned and trained team members that are guaranteed to provide the full energy-producer-experience. It is rare, but month-of requests will be accepted solely when our schedules allow.
12. How far in advance should we schedule our first planning meeting?
Answer: For weddings, we recommend 6 months in advance. For all other experiences, 1-3 months is ideal. This will vary based on each client and how involved we are in the planning process.
13. Do you offer packages?
Answer: We believe that no two events belong in the same box, and your custom experience deserves a high level of attention to detail. We custom quote each event after reviewing the pertinent details that affect the level of audio and lighting solutions needed.
14. What happens if our entertainer has an emergency?
Answer: In the unlikely event of severe medical, natural, or other emergencies, Jaime does everything in her power to secure an aligned day-of entertainer.
15. How do we book The Energy Producer?
