F.A.Q

This page contains a list of questions that we are frequently asked. If you do not find the answer to your question, feel free to call us or email us at any time, or fill out the online enquiry form and a representative will contact you.

How do I make a booking ONLINE?
Contact us for our online booking details which can be used to make an online payment. A $100 deposit is required as a deposit to confirm your booking. You can pay this by cheque or internet transfer.

Can I choose my music?
Yes. On the day of the event, your DJ can either play a pre-determined set list suited to the type of event you are hosting, or you can provide a specific list of songs that you would like to the DJ to play. Through the event the DJ will also be reading the crowd response to find what works best.

When should I pay the DJ?
We would appreciate it if you paid the DJ at the start of the event unless an alternative arrangement has been made with a Beatworks representative.

Will the DJ take requests on the night?
Your DJ will try to make the night enjoyable to everyone in doing so he or she will try to play all requests so long as they are consistent with the current style of music being played. If a bizarre request is made the DJ will usually consult with the client before playing the song.
If there are particular songs that you don’t want your DJ to play please let us know.

How long does the DJ need to setup?
All of our equipment is compact & high quality. Once all the gear is unloaded (which usually takes 15 minutes), it is positioned and then takes 15 minutes after that to get sound activated. The DJ should take no longer than 30 minutes to setup all of the equipment. It is recommended that setup occurs at least 1hr before scheduled start time.

If I don’t know in advance, can I still get extra hours on the night of the event?
If you would like extra hours on the night simply make a note on the booking

Form if extra hours may be required and then let the DJ know at beginning of the event. If you do not notify us prior to the event that extra hours may be required then additional time may be provided at the DJ’s discretion.

What if we have a major event and would like a larger sound system?
No problem. You may require more speakers around the room or dance floor so that everyone in the room can hear the sound evenly, or perhaps you would like to add a nightclub boost to your sound system with a sub-woofer. Either way, we can make sure your next event is fully equipped with a pro sound system.

Can we hire extra lighting to create an even better atmosphere?
Sure. We have extra lighting effects that you can hire including mirror ball, water wave, bubble machine, laser lights and more. Just have a word with us about what type of effect you would like to achieve.
