"Your music. Your people. Your moment." - I make it sound the way it should feel.Open for bookings 2026: Get in touch to see if your date is still available. Wedding receptions from $1200.⭐ What People SayJesse was amazing. I not only got a professional DJ, but also someone fully committed to making my daughter’s Quinceañera the event! I was in a difficult situation because a previous DJ cancelled, and trust was something I did not have at that point. Jesse was fully organized, and his coordination with other people at the event was just amazing. Lights, bubble machine, and full music equipment. No words - I can only recommend him 100%. Thank you so much, Jesse, and I will definitely see you next time. - Roxana“ABSOLUTE LIFE-SAVER & MUSICAL GENIUS. I booked Jesse with 24 hours’ notice and threw him the most unhinged brief ever: a Bollywood-ish global block party mixed with reggaeton, Y2K nostalgia, afro beats and a few tracks to surprise the aunties… and he delivered beyond anything I imagined.” - RochelleI’m Jesse Finch, a Perth-based wedding and events DJ. I specialise in curated, open-format sets: weaving eclectic tastes, mixed-age crowds, and diverse genres into a seamless night.If you want a DJ who’s flexible, intuitive, and actually listens, you’re in the right place. I prepare thoroughly from your brief, then read the room in real time so the energy stays right all night.The Finch DifferenceEyes on the Crowd, Not a Screen. I perform without a laptop, using standalone Pioneer professional gear. This means 100% of my attention is on reading your room, mixing my tracks and connecting with your guests, not staring at a scrolling playlist.Berlin Roots, Perth Soul. My style was forged in the bars of Hamburg and Berlin, refined by years of reading diverse crowds. I am trilingual (English, German, Spanish) and comfortable managing events with diverse cultural roots.Production, Not Just "Lights." Forget the "flashing dots" and "strobe all night even during the slow songs" of a standard mobile DJ. I use DMX-controlled intelligent lighting (Wolfmix) to create genuine atmosphere: from warm amber dinner glows to choreographed washes and lighting effects during peak-time energy. Random flashing fatigues a crowd; I believe the devil is in the details.Music that makes sense together: throwbacks, Y2K, 2010s pop, global beats, singalongs, R&B, classic hits, millennial indie, 2020s hyperpop: whatever your crowd is, I’ll weave it into one coherent dancefloor story.
Photos of the setup
🔊 Professional Sound SystemThe Low End: JBL Professional 18" Subwoofer. This isn't just "bass", it goes right down to 31Hz. That’s the deep, chest-hitting low-end you feel physically, creating that immersive club energy that smaller setups simply can't reproduce.The Clarity: 2 × JBL 15" Top Speakers for crisp, warm, room-filling sound.Active Volume Management: Good audio doesn't mean "loud." I use independent decibel metering to ensure the audio is powerful on the dancefloor, but safe and comfortable for guests.🎤 Crystal Clear SpeechesBad audio ruins good speeches. I use a Shure wireless SM58 dual microphone system. Whether your Best Man is speaking from the head table or the middle of the dancefloor, the sound will be warm, rich, and reliable with no cables. (Your videographer will thank me later!)💡 Lighting & AtmosphereIntelligent Design: I design lighting like a cinematographer, not a disco. Slow fades, intentional colour, and big moments saved for when they matter. Warm amber during dinner. Controlled energy when the dancefloor opens. No random flashing, no visual noise.Atmospherics: Venue-permitting, I use haze/fog to reveal the light beams and create texture in the room. (Bubble effects also available).InvestmentCelebrations & Private Events From $800 (Perth Metro) Turn a backyard, hall, or venue into a genuine party atmosphere.Performance: Up to 4 Hours of high-energy mixing.Production: Full club-grade sound & lighting tailored to the venue.Additional hours: $100/hrWeddings: From $1,200 Your soundtrack, managed with precision and soul.The Prep: Comprehensive planning consultations if required; e-mail, video call, traditional call.The Journey: Bespoke curation for key moments.The Flow: Run-sheet coordination with your venue and vendors to ensure a seamless timeline.The Host: Professional MC services (announcements, housekeeping, and speech introductions).The Tech: Wireless Shure microphones for crystal-clear speeches and MC work.Read more about my wedding philosophy
👋 About MeI’ve been DJing since 2013, cutting my teeth at the Perth Fringe Festival Silent Disco before moving to Europe to spin vinyl in the bars of Hamburg and Berlin. Since returning to Perth, I’ve taken that open-format European style and applied it to everything from high-energy house parties to corporate functions.My background isn't just music. Before going full-time behind the decks, I worked in education management, running language camps in Germany and serving as an Assistant Director of Studies in Perth. This unique mix of experience means I bring German precision to the planning and Perth warmth to the party. I know how to build trust, handle logistics, read energy, and keep a room feeling good.I hold a current Working With Children (WWC) check and am fully insured📩 Let’s Make It Happen📧 Email: [email protected]📸 Instagram: @finchperth📍 Based in Perth - available across WA

A wedding is one of the most important days of your life, and I take that seriously. When you book me, you can expect close collaboration to make sure you get exactly what you want.If you've already looked through my main page, you probably have a sense of how I DJ: no cheese, no cookie-cutter playlists (I spend hours preparing for every gig), no chaos. Just thoughtful, intuitive music that follows the energy of the room. Most importantly: the music you love, not the music I want to play.How I Approach Weddings 🎧Weddings have a very particular rhythm, some variation of this:Guests arrive → mingling → bridal entrance → entree → speeches → main course → more speeches → cake → first dance → dancefloor → late-night peak → gentle landing → send-offMy job isn't to "run the show." It's to make every transition feel natural and unforced, carrying your guests through the experience of the night.A few things I take seriously:✨ Golden-hour and dinner ambience that actually feels special 🎤 Warm, clear, well-balanced audio for speeches and dinner 👨👩👧👦 Dancefloor flow that works for mixed ages 💡 Effects and lighting that enhance atmosphere, not overwhelm it 🔊 Volume that is clear, monitored, and safe 💍 Your special songs, played properly and exactly when you need them 📈 Sensing when to escalate energy and when to hold back 🤝 Coordinating with MCs, venues, and photographers so nothing feels rushed 😌 Keeping everything low-stress, organised, and easy for youDancefloor Philosophy 💃If you book me for your wedding, you're booking someone who:✅ Doesn't force their own taste ✅ Won't kill the mood with experimental mixing (original versions of the songs you love, not DJ remixes) ✅ Plays what works for your guests ✅ Reads the room in real time ✅ Keeps the dancefloor accessible ✅ Knows when to drop a "moment" track: the secret spice 🌶️I'm not the DJ who makes the wedding about themselves. I'm there to support the emotional arc of the night, not to headline it.PricingStarts at $1200. The full range depends on location, hours, ceremony audio, and any special requests.
