Where have I seen him play?
Hello Andrew here,
My biggest gigs were as the only support for Cher's entire Aus/NZ stadium tour in 2018 as well as being Robbie Williams' support act for his 2022 secret show and Hot Dub Time Machine's support in 2016 and 2024.
I've played the centre-piece parties for the Melbourne International Film Festival, Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Melbourne and Sydney Taste Festival, Melbourne Fashion Festival, Time Out Magazine Sydney and Melbourne Awards, St Kilda Film Festival and more.
I've played corporate parties for NZ's All Blacks Rugby Team, The North Melbourne AFL team, Toyota, Priceline, Country Road, Google and really, too many to mention. I've also also DJ'd events and clubs in the UK, South East Asia, NZ and around Australia. It's been bloody delightful.
I have my own club night called 'Mr. McClelland's Finishing School' which has run for 16 years at Fringe Common Rooms (formerly Bella Union) at the Trades Hall in Melbourne. It was Melbourne 'Time Out' Magazine's top listed night club and the feature club of their first issue.
What does he play?
My signature style is my energetic presentation of the music. That is, I dance whilst I'm DJing. I really get in to the music (to be frank, I don't know how some other DJs just stand there whilst they're playing) and I find that my own enthusiasm for the music then rubs off on to the crowd.
I don't really have a 'set' as every night I just bring a huge amount of music and go where the crowd takes me. I cater to the crowd exclusively and play all kinds of pop music. Everything from the 50s to today and most of the genres that splinter off that. From Elvis to The Supremes to The Beatles to The Bee Gees to Donna Summer to Bowie to Prince to The Cure to Pulp to Britney to The Spice Girls to Justin Timberlake to Hall & Oates to Beyonce to Daft Punk to The Weeknd to Phoenix to The Clash to Taylor Swift and all in between. I can of course tailor things in any direction you may prefer.
My personal favourite genres are Britpop, 80s indie, Soul, 60s rock and contemporary indie, but I'll likely skip all of that unless you ask for it.
I can mix live and get the dance floor going hard, but can also play a nice mix of gentler stuff for the quieter parts of the evening.
I will work damn hard to ensure
that you guys have an amazing party.
The Personal Touch.
Andrew isn’t an agency, he is the complete package and handles everything himself. You don’t have to worry that he’ll be the bored, DJing in the corner, playing from a company-approved set list of the most obvious tracks. Or that he’ll play whatever hard-trance hits he thinks makes a great floor (he doesn’t actually think that makes a great floor.) Instead he’ll tailor the music to what you want.
You can let him take care of everything with just some basic input, if you don’t want the stress, or you can meet up before the big day and talk about the exact music you want; what you really want to (and really don’t want to) hear.
Then Andrew will come up with a plan to perfectly compliment your whole day, from background chill and toe-tappers to building up the mood to making sure that the dance floor goes off with a massive bang right until the end of the night.
Prices
Wedding and party DJing
The basic package
For $1650 (incl. GST) I'll play for three hours and bring my decks, laptop and signature great-time style. I'll need you to provide the PA (speaker system) but your venue might already have one, or you might be able to borrow one from a mate, or I can advise you on where to hire one from. I'll also have an online meeting or a coffee with you to get your perfect music selection ready for the night.
I’m also happy to DJ for longer at $330 (incl. GST) per additional hour.
The big package
For $2750 (incl. GST) you get the big package, my classic offering. This covers 5 hours of DJing time and all PA hire, set up and pack down, meetings with you (if you’d like. I love to give a tailored music experience if you want one) and of course, me on the decks!
I’m also happy to DJ for longer at $330 (incl. GST) per additional hour.
The complete package
For $3300 (incl. GST) you get the total package, my deluxe offering. This covers everything in the big package as well as a professional DJing booth and a lighting rig and haze (smoke) effects, (if the venue will allow it.)
I’m also happy to DJ for longer at $330 (incl. GST) per additional hour.
Additional services.
Nothing like knowing what you're getting into.
Tailored experiences, festivals and clubs
If you've got something different in mind, please feel free to just get in touch and let me know what you'd like. I'm friendly and flexible and I' sure we can sort something out.
I love playing festivals and club nights of different genres, so let's chat.
MCing
I am an award-winning stand up comedian with twenty years in the biz, so I have skills in the area and have MCd many high profile conferences, parties and events.
I'll happily meet with you and write some tailored gags about your love story, but can also do it more formally if preferred.
I charge an additional flat $550 (incl. GST) for MCing
Corporate DJing
Price here depends a lot on the nature of your event and the size of your crowd. But let's talk about it all and let me tailor a brilliant and memorable party for your business.
In the past I've played for Toyota, Country Road, The All Blacks, North Melbourne AFL FC, Funlab, Priceline and many, many others. I'd just love to make your night one for all of your team to remember.
