About

Apart from being a DJ, I am married to my wife of 12 years and we have 3 dogs. I am a Board Certified Denturist that provides dentures, partials, nightguards, retainers directly to patients and also consult with Dentists and Oral surgeons on treatment plans for patients. I practice it only part-time becaue my first love is being a DJ which happened at 16. I am restless and also am an amateur carpenter who loves making custom cutting boards. I like playing all racquet sports and trying new restaurants. I ultimately love to travel and try to take as many trips as possible every year. My most recent trip was to Italy where we spent 2 weeks in Florence and Rome. It was almost as amazing as my trips to my homeland Nepal.

I grew up with a love for music. I never wrote or sang, and the only instruments I can play are the dhol and drums. So growing up, my sole focus was being a DJ. With each practice and each gig I fell in love more and more. I have a team that can provide full productions but, my primary love is being a DJ. Its a fun career, but taken very seriously. I have spent the better part of my years as a DJ and it’s shaped me personally and professionally, therefore, I never take a gig/wedding for granted. Days of events, I always bring backup equipment, including backup laptops. I use the best and most reliable equipment and strive to pay attention to each detail regardless of how complex a timeline is.

I am a highly customizable. You can set your preferences for all different parts of the day/night: while guests make their way into your event, while they have their dinner and of course when everyone is dancing. I like to craft unique sets tailored directly to the taste of the couple while also reading and connecting with the crowd. However, I have always believed that if the couple is dancing and having a good time, everyone else follows.

I am a music nerd, so I AM constantly updated on current music and hunt for the best edits and remixes.

Fantastic wedding dj!

Adi was a fantastic wedding DJ! He can keep it simple or spice it up to your liking and was willing to work with us on many of our customizations! Adi was able to seamlessly run our ceremony and mix our reception playlists (which included both western and Bollywood and Tollywood music)! Everyone felt comfortable and people were dancing up to the last song of the night. He was a wonderful vendor to work with and we would recommend his talents widely.

Excellent Choice

I think it is safe to say that DJ Adi was a big reason why our 3-day event was such a success!
Each day had a different mood to it and it was captured well by the choice of music. DJ Adi is very present and reads the mood of the room very well. He is also very responsive to the personal choices of the bride and groom. He managed to go seamlessly through Arab, Desi and American music and make it all appear very natural and coordinated. Thank you DJ Adi for making our wedding so memorable!

Professional, Talented and Caring!

DJ Adhi does it all! He went out of his way to ensure that not just one night, but three consecutive nights of our Middle Eastern/Desi wedding went perfectly. He was not only setting the right moods with the music, but he also emceed each night, helping the nights to flow perfectly.
He introduced all of our family members, friends and sections of the night (cake time, dinner time, dancing time etc) and overall, contributed to the smoothness of the events. He also is a skilled drummer and helped with the entrance of my husband and his family by playing the drums, which was awesome!

His background was also very helpful. Being South Asian himself, he understood the needs our friends and family had when it came to playing certain songs or making sure we were all getting our photos taken. For the middle eastern side, he happily played music that was important to my husband's culture and this satisfied his family and friends as well.

My husband and I created a playlist full of songs that we wished to play during dinner/throughout the night. DJ Adhi happily obliged and kept our playlist on, which added to our wedding night feeling extremely special and tailored to our tastes.

I would strongly recommend using DJ Adhi for your special events. He will not only get the job done, he will do it with pride and respect for your family, culture and needs.
