About Me
Then and Now
My story started when I was just a young Sydney DJ with a dream. My love for music led me to start playing for small gatherings, dances, and eventually, larger events. I never knew that when I started spinning the decks in 2000, I’d eventually get to do it professionally as a full-time Weddings & Events DJ, working with the best clients and venues around Sydney including The Star Casino, Ivy Nightclub, ArtHouse, Doltone House, La Montage, Curzon Hall, The Starship, Gunners Barracks, Taronga Centre, ANZ Stadium for NRL Grand Finals, The Ranch, Rydges, Hotel CBD, Oscars, Hilton, Western Suburbs League Club, Mounties, Gymea Hotel, Castle Hill Tavern and many, many more. Now that i'm based in sunny Gold Coast, I was resident Friday night DJ at The Avenue for over five years and on Saturdays rocking out as the wedding DJ/MC at venues such as Hope Island Links, Royal Pines, Sheraton Grand Mirage, The Pines at Sanctuary Cove, Southport Yacht Club, Braeside Chapel, Q1 Observation Deck, Soul Peppers and The Island. Get in touch with me and give me the lowdown on what you need for your next event.

Testimonials
"DJ Raef did all the music and lighting for our Loreto Kirribilli Year 12 Father/Daughter Dinner at the Hilton this year (2016). He had been highly recommended (raved about) by the mothers who organised the 2015 Dinner. He managed to pack out the dance floor consistently with brilliantly chosen songs that the girls and their dads, a generation apart, responded enthusiastically to! His amazing light show only added to the brilliant atmosphere on the night. Everyone had so much fun. He is highly recommended!"
Dinner Coordinator for Loreto Kirribilli
“A friend of mine recommended DJ Raef for a massive work event that I was helping organise. He was absolutely fantastic. Catered the music to the audience very well and kept everyone happy. He was also perfectly on time and super organised.”

“DJ Raef was great to deal with from the minute I made contact with him. He came highly recommended and I could not fault his commitment to making our function the huge success it was. Many thanks Raef!”
