If you’re sitting around and still scouring the internet for that perfect July 4th playlist, we’ve got you covered. After figuring out the menu and who to invite, the next concern on everyone’s mind is what music to play on Independence Day. We’ve pulled together a few of our favorites.
We often get requests when spinning a wedding… requests from the bride & groom, their family, their friends, good ones, bad ones, drunk ones, inappropriate ones, requests on paper/napkins/smartphones, etc. From having spun hundreds of events of all kinds (weddings, parties, lounges, dance clubs, bottle service clubs, galas, etc) and direction from the couple beforehand, we use our experience and best judgement in determining if and when to play a wildcard. Our couples trust us and we appreciate their trust… as playing a song (even if it’s a good one) at the wrong timemesses up the vibe we so carefully craft throughout the night.
In any case, the request you see above is the BEST one I’ve ever gotten… not because Baby Got Back is the most AWESOME song in the world (although it is pretty great at the right time)… but because such a “ratchet” request was written on a super classy wood panel menu (by the way doesn’t the food read delicious?) with beautiful handwriting. The juxtaposition of this display blew my mind! Needless to say I had to save it and share with you all.
And oh yeah, you bet I played Baby Got Back that night. 🙂
The Remixologists would like to give a big shout out to Andrew & Lisa on their first anniversary! Mike & I (Taiga) helped them celebrate their wedding at the 3 West Club in New York City exactly one year ago. We got there super early as we always do and had some time to kill after setting up. And well, I volunteered to test out their photobooth!
Wooooohooooooo! We are SO EXCITED to debut our new spiffy looking blog & site that’s been more than a year and several redesigns in the making!

In the next day or two, we will have some surprises for our readers… so STAY TUNED!
Happy new year folks! Sorry for the belated greetings. The wifey and I recently got back from Vegas where we were “stuck” (rough I know) over Christmas and beyond due to the massive snowstorm in the northeast.
We are back now and new posts are coming! Hope you all are having a great start to 2011!
