Mark Bloomstein



Hi, my name is Mark and I am the owner/operator of Party Makers. I travel throughout New England to DJ at Wedding receptions and other events. If you take the time to read through the referrals below you will find the following in the words of my past clients....

*I try to foster a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere at all events I work. The more comfortable people are in their environment the more likely they will let loose a little and have some fun on the dance floor.

* I am very adept at "reading" a crowd and playing the right music for the right people. When I DJ I play sets of 3 or 4 songs and transition seamlessly into the next category of music. I encourage requests and mix them in accordingly. I try to make sure that everyone at the party hears a song that they would like to dance to.

* I enjoy all types of music from all eras and instinctively know what to play with the requests I get and what to do when I see people respond to certain types of songs. Many DJ's only know one type of music or just aren't true music lovers, not the case here!

*I am not "cookie cutter" or "cheesy" in my music selection. If the crowd wants Old Time Rock and Roll, YMCA or a line dance I have it but I never play one song after another where every song is a song you hear at every party. I am very capable of gearing my music towards your likes and dislikes and can DJ a party with as many or as few DJ "standards" as you would like. If you have a "don't play" list I'm ready for it!

* My style is "low key but not shy". I can make any and all announcements and facilitate whatever formalities you have going on with a focus on music and dancing. However, I can also incorporate games, contests and trivia into your night if that's what you are looking for.

When I do this I put the focus on your guests and there's good natured fun for anyone who wants to participate and watch. No dollar bills being passed at the table, no silly props, no calling people out onto the dance floor against there will! I'll go over exactly what I think will work at your type of party for anything inter-active and we'll come up with a game plan for your event.

I also have a karaoke library of over 40,000 songs always included at no additional charge.

*Finally, If I am your wedding DJ. I will work out a very detailed itinerary with you so you can then relax and enjoy when the big day comes around. The Bride and Groom shouldn't be wondering why something is happening that shouldn't be with their DJ or vice versa. I will not take you "out of the moment", just help you make the most of it!

Please call my cell phone at 508-509-6979 for more information or to arrange an appointment if you are a Wedding client. I will give you an immediate price quote when you call. Thanks!

Hi Stephanie,
Mark was awesome. He did everything I requested (He kept the music not too loud, at my parents request.) That was huge as this was an older crowd. They appreciated it a lot and commented on how great he was to do that. "You could hear the music and still hold a conversation without yelling" were some of the comments. A few people asked me for his card. I passed it on to 10 or so already. (no comission or anything) haha jk. Thanks again, I'd recommend your company to anyone who needs a DJ in a heartbeat!

Comments: Dear Partymakers,
I can not praise Mark enough for the tremendous job he did at our 25th anniversary party. He kept the kids entertained, including a few young fans who joined him on the stage to chat. He kept the dancing going with no sudden shifts in tempo or style to drive people off the dance floor - and that's not an easy job when mixing ages 75 to 1 year. My family and friends can't stop talking about the fun they had, thanks in large part to Mark. I will definitely call Partymakers again in the future. Thanks Mark!

Comments: The primary goal of hiring a DJ for our party was to keep our child guests entertained. Mark did a wonderful job with the kids - they had a blast. The parents were impressed with the way he organized the activities in such a fun manner. Several commented on how they would like to have him at one of their parties. The adults enjoyed themselves as well. We would certainly use you again, as well as recommend your company to others. ~ Pam
