One of the three main goals of our wedding was to have the best dance party of any wedding we had attended. (No bias--we polled friends and family later on.) DJ Or (ANDR Music) made that happen. Some highlights: 1) He helped us troubleshoot logistics long before the actual wedding day--things well beyond music. He's super knowledgeable about planning, very professional, and an overall kind and generous person. If you call him for a conversation about your event, you will get something out of it. 2) He knew our venue, the Temescal Beach House in Oakland. If you're having a wedding there, stop reading and hire him now. 3) He worked with my family to remote mic someone's electric-acoustic guitar via his sound system, so my father-in-law could play my partner's processional song. It was a small technical piece, but it went a long way in making the day special. 4) He was a big part of the wedding day-of team. He coordinated with the photographer, coordinator, MC, and volunteers to make sure things went as planned, changed as needed, and stayed fun. We had a big weather change on the day-of; he helped make sure spaces shifted and the music matched the energy as needed. So thankful. 5) Multiple friends mid-dancing: "WOAH. Who is this DJ?" No hyperbole--they actually said that. We'd hire DJ Or again without hesitation. read more

ANDR is simply outstanding in every way. To be clear, ANDR is way more than a DJ service, it's a complete musical entertainment and MC service that goes well beyond the actual playing of music at events, including up-front planning, sound and lighting design, logistics coordination, arrangement of additional services (such as photo booth), and event flow consultation. Working with DJ Or to MC our daughter's bat mitzvah was a pleasure. An experienced, kind, and empathetic soul, he took the time to make sure our needs were met. His professionalism and attention to detail made everything go smoothly and according to plan, making us parents, the venue staff, and most importantly, our anxious teenage daughter very happy. He made sure all of the logistics were in place well in advance to ensure smooth load-in, setup, and performance at the venue. He also took the time to make sure we were all on the same page for the tricky details of a bat mitzvah party, since there are introductions, speaking, calling up of friends and family to light candles, and much more. He even scheduled a call a week before the event to confirm everything, go through the schedule, and make suggestions based on his years of working bar and bat mitzvahs. Last, but not least, DJ Or is an outstanding DJ. Any DJ can play music, but a skilled DJ can read, motivate, and entertain a crowd. Participation and energy at an event can change at any moment, so it's critical to have someone that can get the crowd excited, motivated, participating, and dancing their butts off with MC/verbal, song selection, and mixing skills. I particularly appreciated his mashups, remixes, and his knowledge of how to use music to bridge the generation gap between parents, family, and kids so everyone had a great time. If you're looking for musical entertainment for special occasions or your event, you can stop looking right now. Save yourself a lot of time and ensure success by hiring ANDR and DJ Or. read more

I really cannot say enough good things about DJ Or. First of all, when we were planning our wedding, we initially wanted a live band but then ultimately landed on a DJ for several reasons. We talked to a few DJ companies and either felt they were too cheesy or just didn't really understand the vibe we wanted to create. When we connected with Or on our first phone call it was like talking to an old friend. We laughed, we shared music tastes, he asked us about the vibe we wanted to create and really got to know us as a couple. He was meticulous with follow up and truly was one of the best parts of our wedding day. Our dance floor was packed the whole time and so many people gave us specific compliments on how great the music was. We really can't thank Or enough and we are so excited he's ventured off on his own - it's about time! Know that you will be in great hands with ANDR Music! read more

Or does an amazing job making sure you LOVE your event. All of my guests raved about how great the music was. This is a reflection of the time and effort Or puts into understanding the music you like and the feeling that you are looking for. He then takes your input and comes up with a fantastic night of music! I am so glad that we had Or at my 50th birthday party. Or's music helped make the night fantastic! read more

Or was awesome! Looking back with my husband we both agreed "DJ choice was perfect." I was very anxious ahead of time not knowing exactly how to explain what i wanted in terms of vibe, ability to read the room -- Or was perfect. Amazing blend of chill yet 100% professional. He was spot on. If we got married again we would get Or again no question. Thank you!!! read more

Choosing Or as the DJ and emcee for our wedding reception was one of the best decisions we made and I feel so lucky that he was available on our big day. We had planned a reception that was a complex one to DJ/emcee for a number of reasons: 1) diverse crowd in terms of cultural background with a number of non-English speakers; 2) large age gap in audience from age 2 to age 98(!); 3) three live music performances with different styles sprinkled over the course of a 6 hour reception. DJ Or impressed me on our first call with his professionalism and easy-going but meticulous approach. I knew from the first conversation that he was someone I could trust to not only do the job but to take ownership for doing it exceptionally well. He exceeded my very high expectations in every way and I could not have asked for anyone better--I'd recommend him without hesitation to all my friends and any nervous brides. Prior to the event, he did a detailed walkthrough of the timeline with us, confirmed our musical preferences, and made some invaluable and insightful suggestions on the flow of the event and the time to allot to each segment--we updated our timeline as a result because we trusted his instincts on reading the crowd at wedding receptions. Day of, he arrived early to set up and did a superb job as a DJ and emcee--striking the perfect balance of adapting to the crowd and honoring the couple's music preferences. He made sure that the music was always appropriate for the mood and the activity and ensured smooth transitions between diverse segments of activities. For the dance portion, he motivated people of all ages onto the floor, even people who were not planning to dance. His emcee style was also spot on for what we wanted--just at the right time and just the right number of words. Anyone can put together a static playlist but only a good DJ can adjust to the mood of the crowd, the varying time needed for each activity segment during a reception, and unexpected day-of changes (no matter how well you plan, there will be surprises). DJ Or was masterful at this--we were late in starting, had a performer who was running a bit behind and a number of segments that ran over/under timewise. But he and the day of coordinator helped to propose updates to the timeline--it all worked out perfectly and the crowd had no idea that we moved the order of things around to make the evening flow better. As additional context, originally I was planning to DIY to be frugal and just use a playlist but as the day approached, it quickly became apparent that a professional DJ/emcee was the way to go--sharing some of those considerations below for those who on the fence about whether they need a professional DJ: - with all that you're already spending on a wedding, having good music that is seamlessly integrated into the various activities can take an event from average to unforgettable--I realized that it would be penny wise and pound foolish for us not to have a professional DJ handle this aspect of the event - a skilled DJ like DJ Or can serve as emcee also, removing a painpoint of needing the DJ to have to communicate with emcee throughout night on announcements. It also means one less vendor for you to have to hire or communicate with which is a big plus - less stress--in the weeks leading up to the reception, do you really want to spend hours downloading songs to make up 6 hours of time as opposed to sharing your preferences with a professional DJ who not only takes those preferences into account but also supplements them with his/her own music for each segment of the evening and adapts on the fly as needed? I could not be happier with our choice of DJ Or as our DJ and emcee. He elevated our event from a smorgasbord of random musical segments to a seamless and beautifully unforgettable celebration. read more

My wife and I recently had a wedding in the Kabuki Hotel in San Francisco and our experience with Or was very organized and considerate of what we envisioned for our wedding music and all of the audiovisual needs. This includes both the great uplights and audio systems. We had met in person before the ceremony to go over the event plan. He had timed all our songs the way we had planned and as a DJ, he live-mixed the music for the dancing. He was very attentive of all the last minute unexpected changes in plans. In my eyes, Or had gone above and beyond my expectation and he truly made our wedding memorable. read more

Wow! If you are even considering DJ Or for your event, just book him! I don't know if I ever realized how critical a good DJ/emcee is for a wedding. We had DJ Or for ours and it was the best decision we could have made. He was very easy to work with. Not only was he super fun as our DJ but I also want to highlight his emcee services! He was very flexible with us and worked with our day of coordinator to really ensure that all aspects of our wedding flowed smoothly. He needed little direction from us (which was so nice among all of the planning stresses) and we were able to trust him to help pull all aspects of our day together. Once the dancing started, our dance floor was full literally until the very end. We had sooooo much fun and so many people said it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding. They were all asking how we found our DJ! Thank you, Or! We truly had so much fun on our day, and you were a huge part of that! read more

DJ Or Tregger was absolutely amazing at our wedding. He brought so much preparation, fun, and energy to our big day and handled all of our special requests during the ceremony, dinner reception, and dance time. He was great on his feet, too, when we threw some curveballs his way. He exceeded our expectations and was a really wonderful person to have at our wedding. read more

DJ Or was amazing! He navigated our reception so well and worked with our MCs effortlessly - even when they wanted to plan a surprise. The music was exactly what we wanted and he made the effort to make sure everyone's names were being pronounced how they wanted which is an extra detail you don't get with every DJ. He was flexible with any changes we wanted to make and was extremely professional. We still constantly get comments from our guests how much they loved the flow of music and how well our DJ was able to hype up the crowd. Everyone enjoyed the music and had a great time dancing the night away! read more

DJ Or is awesome. He's flexible and very good at taking the pulse of a party and the crowd. He really adjusts the plan 'on the fly' so that a party builds momentum and fun throughout the night. He gets people of all ages involved. We could not have asked for more from a DJ. read more
