Free Music from Amazon.com – MP3 – Merry Christmas

Yes it is true – you can get something for free this holiday season, in fact nearly 700 songs!! Check out Amazon.com – MP3 Downloads. I personally like the mp3 format as it is easy to transfer (no digital rights managment – DRM issues) and use with most any software including iTunes. Here is a sample of what they have to offer…

The Sound LA * 100.3 FM KSWD

Recently a new radio station has emeged in the Los Angeles market, titled The Sound.  I have been listening to the station and have found that overall it provides a good mix of “classic rock” music.  The music that is played consists of truly classic rock to the latest releases.

I would think if you are a fan of such music you might considere having it played during a cocktail hour/reception or maybe even during dinner.  Much of this type of music is perfect for listening to.  I hope you enjoy this new discovey in radio.  Enjoy!

Amazon.com features MP3 files

Amazon.com features high quality mp3 files you can download and transfer with ease. Amazon also lets you preview each song which is a great resource when deciding if it is the right song or not. There are many versions of the same song you can check and see which one you like the best. I recommend Amazon.com to my clients as they like the preview feature when deciding on what songs to include for their wedding or other special event.  Check them out by clicking on the image above or here.

Mari and Mickey in a Phil Vassar’s Music Video – “Love is a Beautiful Thing”

I was fortunate to be the Master of Ceremonies and DJ for the wedding of Mari and Mickey Quillman in November 2007 at Santiago Oaks Regional Park. I received an e-mail from Mari stating that she and Mickey were in a music video, featuring a photo from their wedding day! Read on to find out more…

From: Mari Quillman

Hi Y’all,

I just thought I would pass along something kind of fun. I entered a photo of my new husband, Mickey, and I into a contest to have our photo included in Phil Vassar’s (country artist) new music video called “Love is a Beautiful Thing.” And, out of the thousands of photos that were entered into the contest, ours was picked!!! Yeah!!! If you go to the attached link you can watch the video. Our photo is the very last still photo (a closeup of our faces) shown in the video. We are really excited. Mickey was sure our photo would get picked because it shows how happy we are together but I was skeptical because I knew there would be so many entries. Well, he was right! When you go to the webpage, it may show you a commercial first so be patient. If it doesn’t come up right away, your computer may be blocking the page and you just have to allow it to be shown.

Love IS a beautiful thing! Have a great day!

A New Era in Sound Quality (Bose L1)

I am excited to announce a leap forward in audio quality. I have always maintained high quality audio equipment, but recently purchase the Bose L1 system (model 1).  I do not usually promote specific equipment, however I do believe this system deserves some time devoted to it.  For one the sound quality is superb.  Secondly the ability to be very close without being blasted is also another great benefit, especially since I do a lot of weddings in which inevitably a table or two is situation close to the speaker.  Thirdly it simply looks great, is easy to set up, and does not take up a lot of room, however the sound from the L1 can FILL a large room with FULL sound.

If you are interested in listening to this amazing speakers feel free to call toll free, 866.593.2659 or send an e-mail to david@vmmdj.com.  I offer free consultations to prospective clients so please do not hesitate to contact me. For more information on the Bose L1 system you can click on the link above or the photo below.
