Craig Hughes, DJ, VJ and Lighting Consultant, Auckland, New Zealand

DJ & VJ

I mix both music and music videos to provide a continuous flow of beatmatched music for your guests to dance to. I have a great knowledge of a wide range of music from 60s Rock n Roll to the lattest Club Anthems I can offer you a performance tailored to your event.

Lighting Hire

My lighting system consists of various disco lights and a computer control system linked to my DJ software to control all the lights together in time with the beat of the music.

Sound Hire

My Sound system consists of a pair of 12" main speakers and a pair of 18" subwoofers which cater to a crowd of up to approximately 200 people, plus a pair of 10" speakers which provide sound for speeches, a second zone like an outdoor area, DJ monitors and act as a backup to the main speakers.

Sound Technician

I can operate a live sound mixer for bands making sure that the lyrics are audible and all instruments are equaly balanced. I can DJ in between sets and after the band has left. Having a band and a DJ works well as your guests get the benifit of a live band and can keep dancing while the band is taking a break.

Lighting Technician

My computer lighting control system is capable of controlling up to 1 dmx universe of lights for your event and synchronising all of them to your DJ. I can setup a touch screen for you DJ to touch the lighting scenes they want when they want them. This puts your DJ in full control of a beat synchronised lighitng system.

Visuals

I can output music controlled visual effects, music videos and other videos, live camera video, DJ names and other text scrollers, coundowns, and txt messages from your crowd to my projector or another big screen at your event. This allows the crowd to interact with the show on stage. When playing Music Videos I beatmatch them as if they were vinyl records.

Reliability

I put a lage emphasis on system reliability. While I use highly reliable professional equipment, failures still happen. I have a backup for every part of the chain between music and video source to speakers and screen so that if I have a computer crash or a controller, amp, mixer or speaker fail I can continue the performance.
