    WOW, What a DJ. I attended a wedding in March 2007 where Neil was playing. At that stage I was not even engaged yet, but I told my boyfriend…”If we ever get married, this will be our DJ!” Well, I did get my wish in the end…getting married and having the most amazing DJ!

    Neil is extremely organized and we did not need to worry about a thing. We literally just had to turn up! Our ceremony was outside and he handled everything, from playing the wedding march, organizing the microphones till keeping the party going at 2pm! I have to say at one point I actually wanted him to play some horrible stuff, because my guests did just not want to leave the party…and I was ready to go!

    He has the ability to read a crowd and give them exactly what they want. I always say that the success of a wedding should be measured by the time the older people are willing to stick around. They usually go home early because they don’t like the music. Well, not with Neil, he somehow managed to keep everyone happy all the time…even the difficult Afrikaans Boere with a little bit of “Kaptein span die seile”!

    I will recommend Neil 1000 times over and I hope he will be around for a long while, because I am already looking forward to my 40th birthday bash with him playing the latest hits…and some amazing golden oldies! Thanks Neil, you are the best!

    Kerry and I decided to do our wedding a little different and stretch it out over 3 weeks, rather than have a wedding day. Our reception was the last of the events and having Neil as the DJ was one of the best decisions. He arrived early and set up his equipment and tested everything prior to any guests arriving. His equipment is of a very high standard ( and volume ) and Neil made everyone get up and dance. I had numerous guests complimenting us on the DJ and even had one lady complain how sore her feet and legs were on Sunday from all the dancing. Neil also has a huge selection of music which pleased everyone from the 16 year olds to the 84 year old range of our guests.

    We can recommend Neil and will definitely make use of his services again for functions as the evening ( and wee hours of the morning ) were definitely what we had hoped for .... a blast of fun and a huge success.

    Thanks again Neil

    Dear Neil,

    THIS IS IT, TIME AFTER TIME, EVERY STEP YOU TAKE, ONLY ONCE IN A LIFETIME, ITS YOU ITS YOU ITS YOU.....

    Hope these funny emoticons give you an indication of how much we enjoyed the 'magic you spun' for us at our wedding at The Clarendon.
    Its so weird how at some parties, things only start heating up once most of the guests have left and we can let our hair down. But who cares, everything you played was great! (Pity it had to be a Sunday otherwise I'd not want to leave the dance floor and i reckon more people would have stayed on to party!)

    Use us as a reference, if you wish, although we think you're way passed that stage already. Great stuff!!

    Best of luck for da rest of 2010...
    regards

    Mary and Ivan Marks

    After Neil having a family drama at the start of our wedding,he still remained extrememly professional,without interferring with our day. I hadnt even realised anything had happened until a week later...everything was perfect,from the setting up,to the music...which had everyone going until the very end...I have had so many compliments on the music,and can only recommend Neil.
    Thank you so so much for making our day so special!!!

    Neil is incredibly talented - he is in touch with the mood of the guests and singlehandedly got - and kept - the party going all night; in fact we simply couldn't get our guests off the dance floor!!!!

    Not only that, but he was also extremely organised and professional right from the start - I can honestly say that I did not spend one second worrying about the music, quality of sound or set up.

    Thanks Neil - you were more than we could have asked for!

    Neil was the DJ at our wedding in Nov 2010. He was incredibly professional. organised, reliable and talented. We all spent the majority of the evening dancing and i think that speaks for itself

    Thanks so much Neil

    Kind Regards

    We got married on New Year's Eve so we planned to have a wedding and party all rolled into one. Neil managed (with a very difficult crowd of all ages and tastes!) to ensure that everyone enjoyed themselves. He went above and beyond by staying later than planned.

    His personal service is incredible and his ideas and guidance for the music at the wedding were excellent. I can definitely highly recommend him.

    Thank you so much, Neil. If I'm brave enough to have a 40th birthday party this year I'll phone you!!!!

    Hi Neil,
    Thanks again for a seriously enjoyable night of partying. I have not seen Phil dance like that for a long time, lol. His sister made a similar comment! The vibe at the wedding was great and that was helped by you and the great music you played. Yuor friendly manner came across right away, even from when we first met. I will definitely recommend you to all future brides I know.
    Thanks again :)

    Neil was an absolute blessing to work with. From the time we met till our wedding day, he maintained a reliable,professional and friendly approach. He arrived early to set up, wore formal attire, and covered his equipment in white cloth, which fit in perfectly with the wedding decor. The quality of sound was amazing, he played our choice of music on queue, and read the crowd well regarding what they enjoyed. We had 30 kids at our wedding, running and screaming amok, he managed to entertain them without having to interfere with the program. The kids loved him of course. Another huge fan of neil's, is my father-law, who kept talking about what a fantastic person he (neil) is and thanks to him the beauty of the day was amplified.

    We are really grateful and blessed to have met and worked with Neil. Without him, our wedding day would have been rhythm-less. He is an outstanding person and we highly recommend him to all couples getting married and for any occasion that requires a touch of musical finesse.

    Thank-you again Neil for your awesome work. God bless.

    Jojo and joy

    Having Neil as our wedding DJ, was fantastic. Working with Neil before our wedding was so easy and completely stress free.
    The sound quality, the choice of songs through out our wedding and the presentation of all his equipment was faultless.
    Everyone had an amazing party once the formalitize where out of the way, which is always the sign of a great wedding.

    We would highly recommend Absolute Music for any occation!

    Thank you Neil

    Firstly, we'd like to say a big 'Thank You' to Neil for his services as DJ at our wedding! He was absolutely fantastic!
    We, and all our guests, were on the dance floor almost permanently! The music was excellent, and exactly what we wanted and like!
    There was hardly space for a mouse on the dance floor, which is always a clear sign of a great DJ!
    From the start he was on the same page as us regarding our music preferences, and he was very easy to work with.
    We can definately recommend Neil for any function, and will surely be using his services in the future!
    Thanks again Neil!

    All I had to tell Neil was that we love rock, and I hate Nelly the Elephant and Living Next Door to Alice...the rest was all him and his amazing ability to judge crowds. Our dance floor at our wedding was never empty! This carries more weight than any words can describe! Neil, you are unbelievable! I loved the music, your professionalism, and I loved that I danced until you stopped playing! 10 out of 10.

    Thank you Neil for an incredible job on the music played at our wedding!

    You were always so professional and friendly right from our first meeting and all the music you played was exactly what we wanted to hear :-) You played a perfect mixture of new and old and every song was a hit!

    We have received countless compliments about you and a great party was had by all...you are the only DJ we would ever recommend.

    Thanks again for making our wedding day even more special.

    What a pleasure it was having Neil as DJ at our wedding in Matjiesfontein.
    He has such a talent for reading the crowd and what music is best
    suited when - it really contributed to making the evening a success!
    I have told all my friends who are getting married to use him - as he is really the best.

    Thanks Neil - it was awesome!

    Neil - we had a blast!!! Thank you so much - your music was terrific! There was not one minute where the dancefloor was empty ... always full until 2am in the morning when the venue closed unfortunately! The Brits, the Germans and the SOuth Africans ... all loved it! It's not easy to please such a diverse international wedding crowd, but you did the job!! Thanks again, I can only recommend you for your services! Top notch!!

    Mary and I got married on 17th March 2012 on a wine estate in Franschoek and we had Neil as our DJ.

    Neil was absolutely fantastic. Absolutely professional and incredibly organised. He was able to provide music at three different locations for the wedding and he made it all seem absolutely seamless.

    Many of our guests commented on how good the music was at the reception and the dance floor was packed all night.

    Couldn't recommend a better DJ.

    We got married in Franschhoek on the 31st of March 2012.

    We left the music choice up to Neil and he was absolutely spot on. Everybody enjoyed the music and so many people commented on how fantastic the music was.

    We would certainly recommend Neil!

    Thanks Neil!!

    Thank you for a great night! Our wedding was a huge success! All of our guests without exception commented on what a great party it was, thanks to the great music. There was enough old classics to keep the oldies on the dance floor and enough to keep the young people going.
    Thank you so much for everything.

    We had our wedding on Saturday 8th September at the Monkey Valley Resort in Noordhoek. It was an incredibly special day and Neil made it even better with the awesome playlist! He even helped us out by going above and beyond when he went out especially to buy marshmallows and strawberries for the chocolate fountain. Thank you for making our day memorable!

    The only complaint that I heard that related to the DJ was stiffness the next morning after dancing so much! Neil kept the party going incredibly well and was even entertaining the kids who wanted to play DJ. The best thing I could say is that we have already recommended Neil's services to friends and its only a few days after our wedding.

    Thanks for helping to make our day so special.

    We had a small wedding, and were hoping to get a good dance party going. Neil made sure that the dancefloor was packed all night, and somehow managed to keep the old folks and younger crowd happy too.

    He was also very helpful with logistics in the buildup and made sure that the music and sound was just one less thing we had to worry about.

    Casey and I could not recommend Neil more highly.

    It was a fantastic event that was pulled off incredibly well and the music and PA services provided by you assisted in making it just that special.

    Your choice of music played, the way you read the crowd and provided entertainment till late in the evening is much appreciated - and will be well remembered.

    I want to start by saying a huge thank you for all your amazing work on March 30th! We could not have asked for a better DJ and your ability to feel the crowd is a true art form.

    You were certainly a HUGE part of our wedding running so smoothly and the level of professionalism was out of this world. I would recommend you to anyone!

    My brother and sister in law got married on the 16th November 2013 and Neil was the dj at their wedding. I had sourced Neil from another wedding I attended in February and I thought he was amazing. We had such an amazing evening, with awesome music playing the whole night. Neil really knows how to read the crowd and is as professional as ever. We are now thinking of using him for my moms wedding in April 2014.

    If you want to enjoy a night of dancing to music that get's everyones feet going... NEIL IS YOUR GUY!!!!
