You should own this one…

An all-female DJ lineup isn’t about exclusion — it’s about equity.
It’s about balance, visibility, and creating a lineup that mirrors the world we say we believe in.

When men choose not to show up, it says more about perception than music.
Support shouldn’t depend on who’s behind the decks — it should be rooted in respect for the craft.

We talk about equality often, but it has to exist in action, too.
In attendance. In opportunity. In energy.

Music belongs to everyone.
And when the room reflects that, the sound hits different.

Dear Libra,
We are thinkers. The brain of things. We have the daunting task of braining and brawning, because we are good at both. We have to make sure to decompress. This especially when we over extend ourselves to make sure THE CLIENTS are happy. While this is hospitality at its finest, it’s not when we are too tired to execute… well.

Not every room deserves the journey of depth and thoughtful curation — when the cocktail program is well executed and decor is made to create intimacy, the music should journey beyond your average top 40’s.

Low lights. That hum of conversation that needs just enough rhythm

Orchestrated sound is the difference between background noise and a feeling that lingers to make people want to stay and sip…

Partnering with beverage brands to create this level of experience ensures the desire to continue…

I want more virtual and actual spaces that value the music experts I seek to place as a team in . We have been practicing in Atl and Chicago for over 5 years now.

I was reminded yesterday that some people are so afraid of being seen sweating and dancing… that they’ve forgotten how to have a REALLY good time.

Cocktail events and dining experiences often lean away from loud music to maintain an “upscale” vibe. But let’s be real — a highly celebrated birthday shouldn’t feel somber. Somewhere along the way, we’ve traded joy for control, and I think that comes from consuming too much content showing people at their worst… or being too afraid to be caught on camera in a real moment.

As a DJ, that’s like serving a perfectly crafted meal and watching everyone pick at it instead of diving in. Passionate purveyors go home, tweak the recipe, and come back better. That’s the cycle. That’s the art.

Dining to Lux Listenings LLC DJs has only been lightly explored through Something Lovely.
Why? Because, so far, only one DJ has been able to execute it properly.

I’m not supposed to be the only one.
The challenge right now isn’t talent — it’s space.

We’ve done it beautifully at BAR DAVID,Nafsisouthshore, and even inside Mariano’s, proving that sound can elevate a dining experience just like fine wine or a perfectly plated dish.

This is what music curation in hospitality really means — creating an atmosphere that enhances service, sparks conversation, and makes people stay a little longer.

It’s time more venues understood how intentional sound can shift a room.
That’s the work.

There was a time when soulful, sophisticated soundscapes were part of tje North and North west sides rhythm — curated by people who truly understood balance, musicianship, hospitality and sophistication.

Somewhere along the way, that collective pulse started to fade.

Lux Listenings is working to restore that energy — not just with DJs, but with teams who understand how sound, service, and storytelling come together.
We’re reimagining what collaboration in hospitality looks like — the DJ, the beverage director, the chef, the staff — all tuned to the same frequency.

That’s how we build atmosphere, loyalty, and legacy.
