San Jose DJ
My name is Earl Joseph and I want to be your DJ at your next event. I developed an early love and passion of music at age 16 while growing up in New Orleans, Louisiana. As a musician and song writer, I loved the excitement and thrill of entertaining people and this experience gives me the perfect musical background for being your DJ.

Eventually when I married and started a family I decided that I wanted to become a DJ specializing in weddings which allowed me to pursue my music passions and stay close to home so I could take care of my family.

We were so pleased with your services at our reception that I wish we could do it all over again. You had people dancing in our families that I never knew could boogie! Believe me when I say this, Peter and I would refer your name for any special occasion in a heartbeat! You made our special day a memory we will always cherish and we thank you for that.
The DJ, more than anyone else, will have the most influence over the success or failure of your party. A good DJ will create a lasting memory of a great party. Nothing is more pleasing to a Bride and Groom than to hear their friends and family comment year after year about how much they enjoyed coming to your wedding and how much fun they had!

Earl was so easy to work with. We loved his energy, his willingness to accommodate our song requests, and he was very affordable compared to other DJ's in the business. He was flexible on many things such as MC'ing games for our event and even took pictures for us! He's got an amazing personality and spirit and we wholeheartedly recommend him to entertain your next event. He also has great communication skills and returns calls and messages promptly. He arrived early for set up and was ready to go. We will definitely hire him for future parties. 5 stars for Earl, no doubt!

It has been a few day's since the Star Wars Surprise High School Graduation Party and I just received photos from the photographer. I've been looking forward to jumping on Yelp to tell you all about Earl! Not only did he make booking easy, he even came to meet me and discuss the details of the event, style of music and overall theme. He showed up an hour early to set up and had everything he needed with him. He was well dressed and rocked the night away for all our high school graduates. Everyone was out on the dance floor! Since it was a surprise party, when the guest of honor came in

DJ Earl was awesome at my in-law's 50th wedding anniversary party this past weekend. I was fortunate to have found him last minute (about 3 weeks before the event) on Yelp. He was always very prompt in returning emails which made coordination very easy. He came out to the venue ahead of taking the job just to make sure he could get his equipment there. He even sent a CD to my mother-in-law containing some of the songs he got from her, just to make sure the quality was ok. He showed up to the party early and set up everything very fast. He was professional and always had a smile on his

DJ Earl was amazing! I let my husband deal with the DJ for our wedding. At first, I was hesitant to book him, but hey it was my husband's job, so I trusted him, and that was the best decision in my life as was marrying my husband. Earl was so professional that it shocked me! his playlist was packets long! If he didn't have a song, he made sure to get. He had the guest dancing, and that's what we wanted! We get compliments about him every day! You can't go wrong with him! BOOK HIM!

DJ Earl did an amazing job with a difficult client we worked with in June. On top of that, it was 105 degrees out and Earl was a real trooper.

Although he got very little info about the music choices from the couple ahead of time, he winged it and had the dance floor packed all night with a variety of ages and cultures.

I also had the pleasure of working with him on another wedding two weeks ago and under much better circumstances and he killed it, once again.

As a wedding planner, I love working with Earl because he spends a lot of time preparing for the gig ahead of time and is great about

DJ Earl is such a pleasure to work with. He gave us a comprehensive guide to what types of music to pick for the ceremony through the reception, let's you add any additional music choices if he doesn't have them in his library, and most importantly....is very gracious when you have to cancel your event. If my wedding proceeds in the next year, I will definitely still use his services!!

Earl was our DJ for my sister's wedding and he was 100% awesome. Professional, responsive to emails, prompt, organized, timely with agenda, easy to work with, thorough, clear, no surprises, flexible, kind...just some of the qualities that made my sister's special day the best it could be. He did an excellent job sticking to the script of songs my sister had arranged with a unique twist by adding a couple of his own picks to get the crowd in the mood again. If you need a DJ for an event, Earl is the guy!

I am an event planner/planning genius/crisis management facilitator the general ringmaster of the show and I had the pleasure of working with Earl on a wedding this past weekend. I don't even know to begin so I'll hit the major 5-star points:

* Professional - replies to all calls and emails lightening-fast, which I appreciate since I need to secure services and details as soon as possible to best service my clients.

* He DJ's full time - it's not a "side gig" for him and he gives his clients 100%.

* He knows his stuff - the groom requested a vague song and Earl

We found DJ Earl at the Trudy's bridal faire last year. I was instantly charmed by his friendly and professional demeanor. He had a huge booklet and tons of information right on the spot. To be honest, I was just sold at his price and that his booklet clearly showed that he knew his stuff. Not only was Earl the least expensive DJ I found, he really felt genuine. Anyone who is planning a wedding knows how hard it is to find authenticity amongst vendors. DJ Earl communicated with me thought the planning process, dealt with my multiple changes, and made me feel as though the music part of my

What makes Earl different ? He knows music. He knows people. He understands music and people and music is a passion - a mighty passion for him. I had a TV show years ago and wanted to use a tune to open the show and could not find the name of the tune so I could get permission. I called Earl; played the tune over the phone and in less than 10 seconds he "named that tune". Earl is class; friendly; intuitive and pro-active. Earl is at the top of the list; matter of fact, to me, he is by-far number one. ( I was also a magician at an event where Earl was the DJ and I listened to people around

Earl is super friendly, accommodating, and awesome to work w/. He even opened another outlet for payment since my company card would not allow PayPal transactions.

At first I wanted to give him a playlist but I got super busy so I never sent it to him. We talked and I told him what I would like to play and he basically took care of the rest.

I got to Billy Berk's about 45 minutes prior to the start of our event and he was already set-up. He came equipped w/ water and I think he had coffee, too. I stopped by a few times to ask him to join us for dinner but he declined.

Choosing DJ Earl was one of our first wedding vendor decisions, and we're definitely glad we choose him. He is professional, organized, and thoughtful. We never had to worry about the music or MC details because we knew we could count on him. As soon as you choose him, he will send you a packet to complete to get to know your music preferences and allow you to customize your wedding song selection. He's attentive, very responsive to email, and quickly adjusts to any last minute changes you make. Also, he takes pictures at the wedding and sends them to you shortly after the wedding, which

Im so glad to have Earl to be our dj for our wedding! He is friendly, professional, super organized and calm. During our wedding he was constantly communicating with our photographer, videographer and venue coordinator to keep every in order behind the scene! He knows what songs to play to get the people start dancing.

Ohhh and it was a nice suprise to receive the pictures he took for us during the wedding! They were the first pictures we received after the wedding! Thank you so much Earl!

Earl is definitely one of the best DJ/MC. We just had our wedding at a Chinese restaurant. If anyone has ever been to a Chinese style reception, you will know how chaotic it can be. Earl was very good at working with my bridal party, very accommodating to all the changes and maintained the pace of the evening. Earl also has very good taste in music. We basically let him choose all the music at our reception and they were all great.

I like how professional Earl is while he is on the job. Overall, I am very happy to have Earl as the DJ for my wedding and would definitely recommend him to

Earl at San Jose DJ lended his services at our wedding and we were truly impressed! He is great at getting a good feel of what kind of music you would like to be played and the sort of tone you would like your reception to convey. He had almost ALL of our guests on the dance floor having an amazing time! He also provided mini-coordinating services, designed a timeline of the reception, and provided that timeline to our guests with their place settings at no extra charge. He was affordable and went the extra mile with everything. He even sent us an unexpected set of photographs in the mail that
