1st Contact Discos started way back in 1984.
It was earlier really as I performed at my own school disco in 1982-83 but the first performance was a wedding in 1984. This is where a friend of the family said ‘you should do this as a business’ and that was that! 1st Contact Discos was born.
1st Contact Discos is different as I will entertain and not just stand behind the music all night pressing buttons on a laptop. I will come out from behind the equipment and encourage the audience to dance and have fun.
When someone telephones 1st Contact Discos, they are talking to me, and it's me that will be turning up. I don't sub-contract work out to other DJ's. I won't take the booking and act as an agent. How many shows does the company send out on anyone night? If a company sends out 4 shows on a particular Saturday night, there's a 75% chance you won't get the DJ you spoke to when booking. If you need a gas engineer, legally they have to be GAS SAFE registered to do any work, there is no such legal body set up to protect you when hiring a DJ, so when dealing with a company that have multiple shows, how do you know the guy that turns up is going to be suitable? The answer, you don't!
Finally, Do you get good vibes from the company? In closing, please do not skimp on price... Any professional who meets all the above criteria won't come cheap, and I wouldn't hire them if they did. Price can depend on location, but don't expect to pay less than £240 for a 4 to 5-hour show. Any less than £240 and I'd be seriously concerned that they weren't entirely legal. It costs a lot of money to keep a mobile disco on the road - I have to make at least £8,000 a year before I break even, and there's nothing extraordinary in my accounts.
