DJ Marino – the soundtrack to your event
For more than 20 years I’ve been playing music at weddings, corporate events, birthday parties and other private celebrations, and I perform at more than 110 events every year.
Before every event I meet with you in person or on a video call to talk about your wishes, the music and how the event will run. That way we can agree on the important details in advance and make sure everything goes the way you imagined.
My music selection covers international popular music from the 1960s to today, so every generation finds something they enjoy. During the event I watch how the guests respond and adapt to the mood, so the party stays relaxed and the music is never intrusive. Besides the music, I also bring the sound system and lighting, and at weddings I handle basic hosting and announce the key moments.
I work regularly with event agencies and with companies that come back to me year after year. I can also put you in touch with trusted musicians, entertainers, hosts and photographers.
= areas covered (up to 105 miles)
= free travel (up to 15 miles)
I need a performance space measuring at least 5 x 2 meters. I require one 16-amp electrical outlet and one parking space.
I also need clear directions to the venue and information about a suitable access route for bringing in the equipment.
Ideally, I would need vehicle access as close to the venue as possible to make loading and unloading the equipment easier.
Yes, i'm completely self contained. I bring our own PA system to all of my gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.
Unfortunately, I do not play music from Spotify during my performances—whether before, after, or during breaks. As a rule, I select the music myself. However, the client may choose specific music—provided as a Spotify playlist at least 7 days before the event—which I will then take into account and incorporate into my program.
Musical requests are welcome, provided they align with the client’s preferences, the nature of the evening, the context of the event, and the specific moment.
There have been many excellent performances and venues where I’ve performed. For instance, I worked at Atelier Gardens in Berlin for a private event hosted by Hisense Gorenje.
I love performing at a wide variety of events, though corporate events are by far my favorite! I also really enjoy performing at weddings and birthday parties. The best events are those where guests relax and enjoy my musical selection, and the dance floor is full.
I began performing during my high school years, and my performances have evolved ever since. Over the years, I have performed at hundreds of weddings, parties, and events across Slovenia, Croatia, Italy, and beyond. In recent years, I have been performing at over 110 events annually.
In the 90s, when I started out, I was influenced by several Italian radio stations, shows, and DJs; it’s hard to single out just one who had the greatest impact on me. Naturally, this evolved over time, and a whole range of influences followed—from DJs to other musicians.
I usually arrive approximately two hours before the scheduled start of the event to prepare and set up the equipment.
Please allow sufficient time for the setup (at least 2 hours) and dismantling (at least 2 hours), including loading and unloading the equipment.
I generally provide music throughout the entire event. The exact duration of my performance, of course, depends on the event schedule and requirements.
I am happy to perform outdoors, but I require shade (in case of strong sun), a roof (in case of changeable weather), a flat, solid surface, and an electrical outlet near the performance area. I also need vehicle access as close as possible to the site for loading and unloading equipment.
Before an event, I usually coordinate with the clients regarding the music selection they would like to have. They provide me with a list of songs, which I prepare in advance and then incorporate into the event.
Clients frequently praise my energy and my exceptional ability to keep the dance floor packed all evening, skillfully weaving together music from various genres and generations. In their reviews, they often highlight my meticulous pre-event preparation, seamless communication, and genuine commitment to tailoring the musical selection to their personal tastes. Overall, couples and event planners describe me as a reliable professional who delivers a technically flawless performance while maintaining a warm, personal touch—someone they can fully trust to elevate their celebration to the next level.
