Charlotte, North Carolina

Wedding and kids' birthday party DJ in Charlotte, NC

Two things, done properly. Pick the one you are planning and tell me the date, and I will tell you straight away whether it is free.

Two kinds of night

Which one are you planning?

A wedding reception and a nine year old birthday party need different music, different volume and a different person behind the table. Pick yours and the rest of the page is about that.

The sound

The DJ is also the sound engineer.

Most DJ bookings treat the speakers as something that arrives in a van. Malcolm Copeland holds the audio certifications below, which is the system side of the job rather than the music side. It is why the room sounds right at the back as well as the front.

  • CTS (AVIXA)
  • Dante Level 1, 2, 3 (Audinate)
  • Q-SYS L0, L1, Control 101, Sales Pro
  • L-Acoustics Soundvision
  • Biamp Certified

These are his own certifications, held personally. They are not a product line and they are not an endorsement of any brand.

Questions

Straight answers

What kinds of events do you DJ?

Weddings and kids' birthday parties. Those are the two, and they are the two I am set up for. If you are planning something else, ask and I will tell you honestly whether I am the right person for it.

Who is the DJ?

Malcolm Copeland. I am based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and I play the events myself. The person you book is the person who shows up.

Do you run the sound system yourself?

Yes. I hold CTS from AVIXA, Dante Level 1, 2 and 3 from Audinate, Q-SYS and Biamp certifications, and L-Acoustics Soundvision. That is the system side of the job rather than the music side, and it is why the room sounds the way it should.

What area do you cover?

Charlotte and the surrounding area. If your venue is further out, ask and I will tell you whether I can get there.

How do I check whether my date is free?

Call or send the form on this site with your date, your venue and which kind of event it is. Checking a date takes a moment.
