When Michael is commissioned to cater for an audience, he is deliberate about how he can make their experience unforgettable.Michael is open to meetings with clients to discuss their expectations, he is impeccable in his service delivery and yes, he’s cool with welcoming song requests from guests, rather than limiting his offering through a set playlist.

Angelica Bilro

We only use Mike for our family functions, and he delivers top class professionalism and entertainment every time. A pleasure to work with.

Charmagne Walters

Thank you for being able to assist us on such short notice with the Momentum Consultant event. Michael was great!! We were advised by the client that we do not need a dancefloor in the venue for this group as they do not dance, but oh boy, did they dance to the music the DJ played! We could not get them out of the venue, they had such a great time ðŸ˜Š

Marian Louw

Fikile Mfeka

Michael is incredible, what a pleasure to work with him. In the lead up to the wedding and on the day I felt like he totally got stuck in and ensured that our party continued to the very end. We’ve had compliments almost every day since the wedding on what a party it was and honestly it’s all thanks to him!!! I would highly recommend him to future brides.

Candice Cochrane

Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant. Michael was a true professional. He gauged the audience perfectly and picked up on the vibe very quickly. We received numerous compliments about the music! Very chuffed customer.

Charmagne Walters

MiC looked after all the sound and music at our wedding in April 2018. He nailed the cuts and choices of which parts of a song to play for each part of the ceremony and speeches. His abundant experience really shined theough when timing things like the when the bridesmaids walked down the aisle and filling any unexpected spaces and silences with the perfect choice of music. My niece and dad sang at our wedding and the sound on the live performances was perfect. At the reception party Mic happily accepted requests from our guests and had a vast array of songs in his playlist. We sent a description of the type of music we like as well as what we didn't want to hear and everything was spot on. MiC timed the crowd well and was en point with all the music choices. MiC is professional, early, organised, hears what the client really wants and delivers like a boss every time. All our guests complimented us on how brilliant he was. Thanks for making our wedding so special. If you need someone brilliant for your event - hire Michael immediately.

Siya Gule

Let me just start by saying that Michael Zuma is the best DJ I have ever seen at any wedding! What a legend. From the first moment we met him we loved him, so down to earth and funny. We had this idea that we would have to build our own playlist for the night, but after meeting him we felt so at ease with him and just knew he had our back. The dancefloor was packed right up until the end, and I think he had even more fun than we did! Dancing and loving every song he played. Such a professional and a really great person. We will recommend him to everyone, all of our guests raved about him. Again, What a legend! Thank you for giving us the best night!!!

Jane Wolff

Michael, what can I say - he is just the ultimate BEST!! Had our wedding rocking from the minute we started at 2pm until we all stumbled to bed.

Thank you so much Michael for making our wedding one to remember. Love the Klopper's

We had an awesome time at our Oktoberfest party! Michael played authentic German music while guests were arriving and while dinner was being served. It really added to the overall feel we were going for. He then got guests dancing on the dance floor with a mix of current and older music. I have been receiving messages all day yesterday saying what an awesome time people had, something Michael definitely contributed towards.

Michael was great, kept in contact on the day and arrived at a good time to make sure he was all set up and ready for the ceremony. He went above and beyond to make sure everything went down well, providing music when it was needed. The reception was excellent, great music and when we asked for some music and he didnt have it, he looked online and downloaded it quickly. Very happy, couldnt have gone any better.

I recently got married in Southern Mozambique and young Mike Zuma was our DJ. I feel compelled to inform you he was an absolute CHAMPION! He did a fantastic job, he really made our evening. I've never seen so many people on the dance floor for soooo long. Everyone said it was hands down the best wedding they had been to, that is part due to Mike doing such a fantastic job.

Mic was amazing and very accommodating. The selection of music kept the crowd going from the time they arrived until the end of the evening and most importantly, when the party eventually got going at about 9pm, the dancefloor was always occupied. Mic, a very personal thank you on behalf of Agnes and myself for helping to make our first day together a very momentous and special one... We need to go to the chocolate bar again. Keep in touch. Cheers buddy.
