Hands down the best DJ ever. Marcus could not be more professional, communicative, & artistically creative with his mixes.

I’ve been to 100 parties and weddings in my life, Marcus is hands down the best DJ I’ve ever met. His professionalism and artistic ability are unmatched. Literally the only team of people you need for any wedding, party, or social gathering for the rest of your life. I can’t even count how many compliments we got at our wedding last night about how good the DJ was. The owner of the venue even had to ask for his card. Nothing could have been better and If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. Such a genuine person inside and out. He met all of our needs and questions throughout the planning of our wedding, and handled everything the day of perfectly. His mixes are phenomenal and personalized to what you want. If I could know all the weddings he does in the future I would show up just to dance!

7 Years and Counting!

We have had Innovative Blends as the DJ for our senior prom for the past 7 years. They have been professional, fun, and responsive to our needs. The music selection and mixing during the event is great, and the photobooth, including the 360 Booth, is always a hit! They are always trying to stay current and use the latest technology and trends to give a great experience! Our students have enjoyed prom each year- that’s why we keep coming back!

Hands down best decision

To say that Marcus and Innovative Blends were amazing at our wedding would be the biggest understatement I have ever made. From the start of planning to the very last song of the night, Marcus was nothing but professional, personal, and all around the party king. We only had a few songs that we wanted for the night, but gave him the rest of the night to do as pleased with the musical choices. He did not disappoint with his seemless transitions and choices of music to keep the dance floor full the entire night !! It wasn't just us either, we received a number of compliments from our guests stating that the dj we chose was the best they have ever heard and we completely agree with every one of them. We 100 percent would, and will recommend Marcus to anyone looking for a musical genius for their special night !!

Team

Marcus Smith
Marcus Smith
Lead DJ

Musician, producer, DJ, promoter, and music enthusiast alike, DJ Marcus Smith or DJ Panda his alter ego hails out of Mentor, Ohio. When not performing, he spends his time in his music room creating and blending music. Introduced to a variety of music genres at a young age in a very musically-influenced home. He spent many years playing at some of the local night clubs (alongside some of the local hard-hitters), holding a 10 year residency, DJing special events and promoting his own shows, Marcus has had a lot of time to develop his sound. For him, it’s all about mood and creating blends noone would expect (creating mash ups to surprise your most music inclined guests)… playing those tracks that get you tapping your feet and nodding your head without you realizing it, regardless of genre, tempo, style, or date of release. Don’t be surprised when you suddenly find yourself gravitating to and drawn to the dancefloor. Blending Country with Hip Hop , R&B with Rock, or anything else you can imagine you can't go wrong with DJ Marcus.

Today,Dame dives into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of all the music that he has ever perceived.

A very active member of his church and local community, Damon is no stranger to the ups-and-downs of the music scene. Though he loves playing in clubs, patios and special events, his love for music really shines through in the Weddings he performs, always adding flair and originiality to your event.
As a Deejay, producer and promoter, he has found plenty of ways to express himself musically.
“For me, it’s all about exploring innovative sounds in diversive genres, because encountering people that dance the night away is what brings me the adrenaline rush”.

DJ Zach B aka The General. Zach and Marcus met at an event and hit it off immediately. Zach's Mixing style caught Marcus' ear and the rest is history. Zach has held down a residency at Clevelands Own Shooters in the Flats. His wedding library is extensive, but if you love Hip Hop you better book him now. Zach flows flawlessly across any genre but Hip Hop is definitely one the places his needle drops in the groove. Zach B is also an amazing turntabilist , but he can manipulate a controller with the best of them as well.
