Dennis About Me | Testimonials | My Blog

We don’t just provide entertainment... We create it!

is originally from New Jersey and it’s there where he broke into the professional Mobile DJ scene. Although he does not have a music degree or was never in a band, Dennis was always the guy that handled the music. From turning his parents garage into a make shift club early in high school, hosting “house” parties in college, to huge backyard events… it was all about the music. “DennisFest” was his brain child. It encompassed a live band, a ton of people, fireworks and Dennis spinning the tunes for an annual all-day/night party at the house. Like most mobile DJ’s, Dennis started working for a company. He listened to the advice of his family and friends and went off on his own, creating Life’s A Party DJ Entertainment. Dennis has a passion and respect for what he does. His enjoyment comes from people having fun at his parties. His business model was simple: give people exactly what they want, involve them in the planning process and deliver the best performance. In June 2009, It was apparent that he shares many of the same business philosophies and visions as Vinny and Diane. Dennis decided to bring his DJ business over to Split Second Sound DJ Services. Together they have embodied the spirit of a full service company that goes beyond just being a DJ. Dennis is also involved in charitable events that give back to the Charlotte community. He is one of the organizers of an annual golf outing that benefits A Child's Place here in Charlotte, NC. A Child’s Place works to erase the impact of homelessness on children and their education. Dennis regularly volunteers his services to the Muscular Dystrophy Association. He’s provided entertainment and was the MC for the Stride and Ride event, brought the Wii party to the Muscle Team event at the Bank of America stadium and does a Dance Party for the MDA summer camp.

23 April 2011 Does Split Second Sound have a back up plan in case of emergency?

FAQ

3 December 2011 Dennis was great - he worked directly with Katie the bride and she was thrilled with the result. You guys were very responsive and tolerant through out our planning especially when we were changing our minds every other day! We couldn't have been more satisfied.

23 September 2011 Dennis was everything we wanted in a DJ. He went above and beyond asking myself and Mike if he could get us drinks and at one point during dinner I think he even offered to refill our plates. I can't say enough great things about Dennis and the amazing job he did. Our family and friends keep saying what a great party it was. I was also very pleased with the perfect volume of the music. As Bonterra is a smaller place I was a little worried that it might be too loud or soft (as I have been to wedding with both issues) but it was PERFECT! The uplighting was amazing as well. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Dennis for the phenomenal night!

30 July 2011 I have nothing but amazing things to say about Dennis! He was so much fun and really was attentive to not only what I wanted to hear/dance to but what appealed to everyone! He was so much fun and I'm STILL hearing rave reviews about the DJ at my reception.
I really appreciate everything that Dennis and the rest of the Split Second family did for me to help make my night beyond perfect. You can absolutely use me as a reference and I will no doubt be recommending you all to any and all future brides that I know!

9 July 2011 Dennis & Derek did a great job! We were very pleased with both of them and they were able to accommodate our wishes and were very professional. One request we had was to have one of Erin’s uncles sing a song at the wedding which is kind of a family tradition of theirs. He was able to make that work which was very cool. All of our guests were impressed with them as well.

Our wedding reception was fantastic and Dennis played a very big part of making that happen. He was extremely organized, professional, and made us both feel very comfortable during our reception. Dennis took care of all the details for us, which allowed us to have a wonderful time without the hassle of trying to organize things ourselves. I would recommend Split Second and in particular, Dennis, to anyone planning a wedding reception. He far exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family had nothing but good things to say about our reception and Dennis' key role helped provide a wonderful environment for all of our guests.

I just wanted to let you know that Dennis and Anthony did an absolutely wonderful job at our wedding. The uplighting they did was gorgeous, Dennis was so great in making sure everything was on point and ready to go, he really made the night run so smoothly. Our guests danced all night long and had a great time, exactly what Andy and I wanted. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special and memorable. It has been a pleasure working with all of you.

21 May 2011 We feel that Dennis did an amazing job with the music. He got everyone involved and gave everyone an opportunity to contribute to the music that was played at the event. Every single person in that room loved the music, including one of my bridesmaids who herself is getting married in January and decided based on our event to chose Split Second for herself. He took what we talked about at our meeting and put it into action, there were no songs that were played that we don't like. They were even able to put in the Horah in a way that made sense and made it seem like it was just another song, not the religious song it is. We loved the reception (even more so than the ceremony) and the one reason for that was Dennis and Split Second Sound.

16 January 2010 Dennis was unbelievably wonderful! Everyone I spoke with said the music was great, he played what people asked him to play, he stuck to his word about what I wanted played, and I thought he did a fabulous job. We wanted a party, and a party we got!! He was energetic and professional, all while letting the reception run the way we wanted it to be. I would, and have, recommended Split Second to anyone planning any type of party. As a customer, I felt like every penny I paid was absolutely worth it!

5 September 2010 "Dennis and Ben did a wonderful job. Everything was perfect! They were a perfect combination of both fun and professional. "

Sarah Webster

20 June 2009 I was afraid at first hiring a DJ because at all of the weddings I have been to the DJ was really cheesy and not fun, but we had the best time with Dennis at our June 20th wedding! He got the party started way sooner that we would have anticipated and we had a blast! We would highly recommend Dennis and Split Second Sound!

31 December 2009 Lee and I had a great experience with Split Second and with Dennis. Dennis acted very professionally both before and during the wedding and created the atmosphere that we wanted. Dennis and the DJ entertainer (Rashaad) did a great job keeping the party going and getting people on the dancefloor. It was a wonderful time and Dennis played a key role in making the night so special. Thank you!

3 April 2010 Nick and I had so much fun at our reception and were very impressed with Dennis and Derek! They did a fantastic job. Our contact before the wedding was very good. We met in person to go over the sheet that we had filled out and then Dennis called me the Tuesday before the wedding to make sure there were no changes. Everything we wrote on our reception sheet was done and I did not have anything to worry about!!
Dennis and Derek both handled themselves professionally. We had several comments from our guests that this was the first wedding where the DJ was not annoying and inappropriate. They were great -- our guests were dancing all night and we had so much fun! We also had several comments about how smoothly the reception went. There was never any confusion and the whole night flowed perfectly.
Our overall experience was fantastic and we will definitely be a reference for you guys. We had so much fun dancing the whole night and we were just very impressed with how the evening flowed. Dennis came up to me and made sure I was having fun and he just made the reception perfect! We had a GREAT wedding reception!!

5 September 2009 Dennis and his partner (Jordan) did a wonderful job at my wedding, several people came up to me stating he was the BEST DJ they had ever seen at a wedding. He was very professional and nice before my event, even meeting with me and emailing me several times when I had questions. They did a fantastic job!
