What To Do When Disaster Strikes

from Beyond the DJ Booth · host Joe Bunn and Brian B

Send us a messageTikTok can delete two weeks of momentum with one vague notification, and that’s exactly where we start. One of us gets hit with a sudden account ban for “impersonation,” no real explanation, and basically no support loop, which turns into a bigger conversation about how DJs and creators should think about platforms, backups, and not building your entire business on rented land.From there, we slide into pure summer fuel: crate finds, yacht rock, and the specific songs that make a room feel like sunshine before the dance floor even opens. We talk through real DJ workflow stuff like why certain long edits are clutch for doors open, how that 115 to 122 BPM pocket keeps cocktail hour moving, and which classics still hit hard today. Steely Dan, Christopher Cross, Boz Scaggs, Michael McDonald, plus remix angles like Party Pupils flips that can carry you from dinner into “okay, let’s party.”Then the main topic gets real fast: what happens when someone gets hurt at an event and you’re the one holding the energy in your hands. We walk through a listener story where a guest falls, how to decide between silence and low background music, what to say on the mic without being weird, and how to restart the night with respect. If you DJ weddings, corporate events, or clubs, this is event crisis management you hope you never need but you’ll be glad you thought through.If this helped, subscribe, share it with a DJ friend, and leave a review so more working DJs can find the show.Support the showRESOURCES & LINKSOur website.
