Geeky Info:
We have not chosen the more stylist speakers because our top full-range speakers are 134dB each, & are mounted above the bass speakers to give far better sound clarity in larger or long rooms at low or high volume, so even with a busy dance floor the sound is clear & precise at the back of the room, hence it can do ballrooms/does the job, but our premium services do a far better job as event specification designed to trow all the sound quality back much further in clarity, at any volume & more fitting for large rooms/marquees in every way.
Darren's "pet hate" is cheap or stylish speakers as with a busy dance floor = People in front of the speakers block the sound Hence At the back of the room all you can hear is a very annoying bass-drone & harsh/tinny noise... so guests go home early, why we use the speakers we use as they actually do the job, not just look stylish or boast how many watts they are = sound loudness is measured in dB & should be the on axis reading for speakers, & usually the higher dB on axis means a far higher sound clarity at low or high volume in all your room - Not just the dance floor.
All Bookings Not Booked Via The Hitched Link At The Top Of This Webpage Book Our Standard Classic Disco - Non Negotiable.
As Always We Do Prefer All Bookings To Be Done/Booked Through The Hitched Link At The Top Of The Page, Classic Or Premium Services.

Want To See Light Beams Like A Concert/Festival:
Most Venues Do Not Allow Smoke Effects, But We Have 2 Professional Stage/Event Lights That Will Do This Effect.
You need a dark large room, field, or dark walls ceiling, as small rooms with white ceilings/walls will cause the light to bounce back into your room/not beams.
The lights are brighter than direct sunlight so highlight any small dust particles in the air, & must not be used near aircraft.
50W white laser source that delivers an intense 105,000 Lux at 10 meters with a razor-sharp 1° beam angle. IP65.
If You Want This Effect Please Make Sure The "Two 50Watt Laser Powered Moving Heads" Is Listed On You Contract.
This effect is pictured:
The Guild Hall, Bath - Student Night (Black & White Photo - No Smoke effect used near top of page).
Marquee: Sometimes we use some smoke in marquees as Low roof, & the lights are so bright they give bounce-back off the White roof so brightening all the marquee/not the beams.
Some couples do ask us why we use a Dj Booth, & not a podium Dj stand?
Simple: You can see the mixer & Darren is Dj'ing on your night (not playing a "wedding pre-mixed set", But most importantly if any equipment does fail eg. laptop, controller/mixer/mic/headphones/leads/music drives etc. djdarrenjewell.com always carries spares, so they can be quickly changed if anything should fail. djdarrenjewell.com bookings.
"Extra Services" eg. Photo-Pod, Garden Games etc.
It is cheaper to hire our Extra Services when booked with a Disco, as we do a package deal for you.

The best DJ!
We honestly can’t recommend Darren enough! He was so helpful throughout the booking process and had excellent communication. We loved all the little touches with the photo pod and the guest book was amazing! He played everything we wanted and our guests danced all night long! I would 100% recommend him!

Stress free, top notch service. Booked as our dj, Photo Booth and love letters.
We booked Darren as our dj for Coombe lodge well in advance after being recommended by the venue! This was the perfect option for us, as Darren also had a range of Photo Booths garden games and more than you can create a package out of Meaning we could organise a lot for the day through one supplier! We didn’t opt for the garden games, but had rustic outdoor love letters, a classic disco and Photo Booth! Darren kept in contact before the day, getting final details. We chose a range of 30 songs for Darren to play, he then adapted the music to what was popular on the dancefloor to make sure the guests were always having a good time! He was also flexible with our choice of love letters so we could check the weather a few days before and change to an indoor option if the weather didn’t look as good! The Photo Booth printed took 3 photos each time then printed two copies. I was able to send our wedding logo before the day which Darren added to the Photo Booth photos. He provided a guest book , pens and glue for guests to fill in with the pictures!. We also got online copies of all of the photos taken and a highlight video of the dancefloor!!! The props for the Photo Booth could do with updating, but everyone absolutely loved it! Being able to book so much through one person was really helpful and the service provided was excellent. Lots of pictures on Darren’s instagram of set up etc. too and different options.
Hi Amy, Glad you all had fun! & we have updated the Cases Photo-Pod props.

Superb wedding DJ
We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ than Darren for our wedding on 22nd December 2025. From the very beginning, he took the time to really understand what we wanted, speaking with both of us and working from the playlist we provided while still adding his own expert touch.
His setup on the day was completely seamless and incredibly quick, which meant everything ran smoothly without any stress. Throughout the evening he kept our guests entertained, happily taking requests while also reading the room perfectly and knowing exactly what to play to keep the atmosphere buzzing.
The dance floor was full, the energy was fantastic, and the music played a huge part in making our day so memorable. We honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

About Dj Darren Jewell.
Darren started Dj'ing in the late 80's & became a full time professional (dj'ing only income in 1998 so grew up in the vinyl & cd format era).
Geeky Dj Stuff: Why We Use What We Use (Native Instruments Full-Control Of STEMS, other equipment manufactures are only STEM on/off), but we still can work without stems or on/off like all other Dj's using Pioneer/Alpha Theatre equipment.
The equipment we use is what music production allows, it's very complicated/hard to do in real time but the outcomes are amazing!
Very few Dj's will master full-control STEMS because one track song with stems is 4 different tracks drums, baseline, melody, and vocals, the Dj is mixing all at once = 4 tracks at once as the Dj adjusts every STEM/track = Turn up all the 4 stem track & its the original 1 track you know & hear = If Darren is mixing/constant melody of music one song to another he is actually mixing 8 separate tracks/STEMS 4 Stems per song/track.
You've all seen festival Dj's with lots of CDJ's BUT all they are doing is playing one STEM taken from one track so it looks really cool with loads of CDJ's, but in fact they have made it far simpler for them to do as a well rehearsed show, but Darren can never plan what song/track will be played next, as its about the songs on your playlist, requests, & what the dance floor needs next so with so many combinations of songs/tracks its impossible to practice this.
Dj'ing Style: Mixing as a constant medley of music all night.
Primarily Darren is a Dance/Trance/Techno/House & Urban/R&B, Hip-Hop, Garage, D&B Dj for decades depending on venue music policies, or target clientele, but has always been able to play & mix all genres including 60's/70's/80's/90's/00-2026+ Pop/Cheese & Commercial music.
Sadly most people stereotype Dj's from when they last saw them play, not what they can fully do eg. if you go to an R&B club & only like Abba & Macarena, obviously that won't get played?, or if your in a "trendy bar" were people are eating, socialising, relaxing, the Dj won't play Mr Brightside to 6 drunk loud people to scream & shout to? (hen or stag party), otherwise the large majority of people socialising & eating leave & won't come back, very few people understand the logic in this?
Weddings are a bit like the above as the couple give Darren a playlist guide of what they want played at Their Wedding, & not get played (we always say to couples if we think there playlist might not be liked by the majority of guests, but the couple always has the final decision on music, not Darren).
Darren has also done warmup Dj'ing for may big artists & music producers over the decades (dance & urban etc.), as does the professional job, then goes home as not the one for "big-up or hype".
