So far I’ve DJ’d at more than 300 parties in Switzerland. Some had a lot of guests while others were very private. Some were very elegant while others were very casual. Take a look at some of the organizations I helped create outstanding experiences for their guests:

The ones that you and your guests prefer playing, honestly. I love music and I’m well-versed in all party genres and in all musical decades. I easily adapt not only to your playlist affinities but also to the mood of the party, guiding your guest to have a fantastic time. I have a collection of more than 70 000 songs, ranging from current hits or all-time party classics to nu-jazz or ballroom music. Of course, we can focus on the most popular party hits from different decades, the 70s, 80s, 90s, or “noughties”, for example. I can adjust the playlist to your preferences but also guide the mood of your guests so that everybody dances when they should be dancing – and not during dinner.

I have an extensive music selection with over 70,000 songs currently and I update my libraries every week. If you have any special requests that I do not already have, I will make sure to acquire it for you.

This is entirely up to you. If you accept, you will receive a link to an online questionnaire. Please fill it out and return it at least one week before the event.

Of course you can also create your own Black & White list. The more information you give about your musical preferences, the better.

YOUR PARTY RESOURCE CENTER

Want to discover awesome song lists, unique party games, tricks to hosting unforgettable parties, or the latest updates from the musical universe?

First and foremost, I take pride in our work. I want you to have a relaxed and fun time and for your even to successfully turn out to be everything you wanted it to be. I know the local area, all the venues, and the people in place at the various venues personally. When you book DJ Oliver, you are not only hiring someone to play music. I take charge ensuring all your planned details and timelines are met in accordance with what you have given us. I go above and beyond our titles to direct the show for you!

So far I’ve DJ’d at more than 300 corporate parties in Switzerland. Some had a lot of guests while others were very private. Some were very elegant while others were very casual. Take a look at some of the organizations I helped create outstanding experiences for their employees and partners:

  • GOOGLE
  • UBS
  • CREDIT SUISSE
  • SWAROVSKI

The karaoke service is optional and can be booked in addition to my DJ service. The advantage of getting everything from the same person is that technical equipment is compatible and the entire set-up as well as announcement of performances are taken care of by me.

The host can decide on timing of karaoke sessions and dancing. I am happy to make recommendations in a personal meeting or send you a customized offer for your event.

Unfortunately, I can’t invite you to any of the corporate or private parties that I DJ at in Switzerland, for the same reason I would never invite someone over to your party. I hope these videos, photos, and mixes will help you see how much the guests of my previous parties had fun there.

HOW MY PARTIES LOOK LIKE

70s/80s
90s and “noughties”
Chillout, Nu-Jazz and dinner sound
Latin

All of the sound and lighting equipment I use is modern and state-of-the-art – offering high-quality sound reproduction. At the core of my sound system are bi-amplified, active speakers. I use HK Audio Lucas Smart by HK Audio, which produce an amazingly well balanced sound – not too much of the highs, not too much of the lows – just right.

They do this with digital signal processing that delays the faster moving low frequency bass sounds just a bit so they arrive at your ear at the same time as the slower moving high treble sounds.

Driving the primary sound system, from a custom-built DJ console, is an Apple MacBook Pro laptop computer connected to high-quality digital signal processing hardware by Denon, ultra-low loss audio interconnect cabling by Mogami, and a Denon digital mixer. With built-in wireless audio broadcasting, this system can transmit sound to speakers in another room or outside at your venue.

This unique, custom-designed system, has hardware redundancy built-in to allow for quick bypass of any problem area and I always have a second ‘old school’ CD-based emergency backup sound system onsite.

I always dress according to the nature of the event. Of course, if you have any special requests regarding my attire, please let me know and I’ll do my best to honor them.

 I pride myselfe on attention to detail and my garauntee is that you will have me at your wedding/event that day, and nothing else scheduled.

Volume is always one of those things. Not everyone feels the same way. One thing is certain in any case. As an accompaniment to the meal, DJ Oliver drives a discreet program at a reasonable volume, so that you can talk well.
Later, at party time, it gets louder, of course. If this would be too much, the volume can be adjusted immediately.

Please contact me with the form at the end of the page or send an email at feedback@djoliver.ch with your address, phone number, date and place of the celebration. You will immediately receive a written confirmation with all important details and conditions. In order for DJ Oliver to prepare for the event, a music questionnaire will be sent along. This can be filled out comfortably and easily online.

in the greater Zurich area it is always possible to meet DJ Oliver and get to know him personally. If you live further away or a meeting in Zurich is not possible, DJ Oliver is also happy to answer your questions by phone. Or – as already with a bridal couple from the USA who got married in Switzerland – via Skype or Facetime.

DJ Oliver works for 4 artist agencies. In case of a prevention, the agencies will be contacted for a replacement. If there is no possibility here, DJ Oliver will find an adequate replacement via a DJ emergency pool. 17 professional wedding & event DJs have joined forces for such cases. In no case you will be without a DJ! By the way, there are no additional costs for this replacement. The agreed fee with DJ Oliver is binding.

No, I will never set up a banner or sign at your wedding. Rest assured that we are there for your motives strictly, not ours. If your guests would like to speak outside of the event, I can offer them a card or you can refer them to us.

In the greater Zurich area there is no additional travel fee and is included in the fee. If the order location is further away and it is necessary to travel more than 50km, there is a surcharge.
If the travel time takes more than two hours, an overnight stay on site makes sense. This should be financed by the organizer.

 

Coveted dates are between May and September and in the first weeks of December. In this period mobile DJs are booked more often for weddings (or in December for Christmas parties) than in the months of January to March or October and November.

A Saturday night is always more in demand than a Friday.

Another factor for the calculation of an evening is the journey. Bookings within a radius of 50 km around Zurich are cheaper than bookings in Italy, France or Germany.

The number of guests also plays a role. From this, the necessary size and power of the facility can be derived. Depending on the situation, additional equipment may have to be rented. If we stay with the technical topic, the question arises whether pure music is desired, whether a beamer with screen must be provided for presentations, whether lighting effects and a fog machine are needed – all these are things that have an effect on the price.

Quality has its price. What costs nothing is also worth nothing. If you are looking for the cheapest party DJ possible, DJ Oliver is not the right address – but his pricing is not in the top range. The great experience of over 350 weddings and corporate events, years of work as a radio host, DJ assignments in pubs, bars, dance schools and clubs will pay off at your party.

A birthday party, a corporate event, a Christmas party is an important thing, for this reason trust a professional DJ.

Ask without obligation, with pleasure DJ Oliver puts together a tailor-made and fair offer for your celebration. Or get to know DJ Oliver in a personal meeting. This is of course possible in the greater Zurich area.
