Having listened to and worked around Music and the Radio for over 40+ years & having known some of the best Radio Programmers in the business, I have decided to create a unique Mobile DJ service called "VINYL REWIND MOBILE DJ". It recreates the excitement of the 60's & 70's Great Top 40 Radio Stations. As the name suggests, most of the music played was initially released on a 45 RPM Record or LP. It may have been released in the 50's, 60's, 70's or 80's, yet it still remains hip & popular. Think of a timeless song, in a movie or a commercial. If it is sounds like Rock, Soul, Psychedelic, Dance, Pop, British, Motown, Indie, or Punk, I probably remember playing or hearing it. The Format is very Upbeat and Personality Oriented, with a few vintage commercials and original radio station jingles that you remember hearing, like those from WJBQ, 68 WRKO, WLOB Lucky 13, WIGY Y-106 and 77 WABC among others. I "Re-create" the High Energy DJ sound that you heard on the Radio while growing up! I often play the song on a turntable. Most Mobile DJ's do not play the music this way; as they are not familiar with this type of "Sound" or "Format Flow" and how to execute it properly. Unfortunately, a computer program or researched playlist cannot duplicate the sound or feel of what we do. It is only by actually having played this music in an On-Air Studio or hearing it on the Radio back in the day, and understanding the executuon that you can actually "Recreate" that sound. I use custom audio processing equipment to tailor and create that large "Wall Of Sound". The closest example is Sirius Radio 60's on 6 or 70's on 7 or 80's on 8 & Boss Radio. I originally started as a DJ in the late 1970's both as an On-Air and Club DJ "beat mixing" the music of the 80's video era on Technics turntables. At the time, Disco was fading out and "New Wave" and MTV had just debuted. This new format is completely different & unique in that it is extremely varied as far as music styles, mixing & delivery of select 50's to 80's hit music. We feel that this music genre is very much in demand but not highly available to listen to, and I would enjoy playing it again for you!
