Lio is A+, above board, super chill, an all-around good dude. I reached out via his website to learn more about music production lessons for my teen. His assistant texted right away and scheduled a call for the next day with Lio. I knew it would be a perfect fit within a few minutes. Lio is experienced, well-connected, and radiates a love for his craft. He was up-front about learning the profession, technology, skills, and the practice it takes to get better. There was no sales pitch whatsoever, just an honest and transparent explanation of how he teaches, what the student can expect, and how parents can support the process. My teen had his first lesson in Lio's home studio last week. Cloud nine does not begin to describe the experience for him! His self-taught skills were validated, he learned so much in just two hours, and came home to "remix" his original creations. He has a second session scheduled with Lio next month and cannot wait. I highly recommend Lio for his professionalism, expertise, kindness, and efforts in teaching the next generation of producers. We are Lio fans for life! read more

I literally can't recommend Lio enough! We got our 11-year-old nephew some lessons for Christmas this year. Lio was so great about scheduling and he even made us a flyer so he would have something to open at Christmas! The lessons themselves were FANTASTIC. Lio helped our nephew get software setup and learn the basics...our nephew LOVED the lessons. We were a little worried he wouldn't pick it up because he was so young, but Lio was a spectacular teacher...and so completely wonderful to work with. If you are looking for lessons...don't go any further, Lio is THE BEST. Also, we are now totally pumped our nephew can spin some awesome house music while we do chores. 10 out of 10 recommend! read more

I found this company from some coworkers. It was my sisters bday this past week and Lionel was able to have a consultation with me. It spoke volumes to me that he asked to first hear what my needs were and see if his services were appropriate. It was obvious he runs an honest business and wants to provide value. I was planning a surprise party so he was able to get me a DJ in the Las Vegas area that spun hip hop and edm! This was perfect for my sister and her friends, as she just turned 18! Lionel went above and beyond and even offered a photographer. It seems he has connections all over Las Vegas to accommodate many different audiences. He serviced our party with the DJ and all dj equipment, staging, speakers, party lighting and the recommended photographer( which is not listed in his business, but he went above and beyond to see how he can assist with my event) I will certainly be recommending to my family and friends. Thank you Lionel ! read more

Lionel is an amazing wedding emcee. He absolutely killed it. Guests loved him. He didn't play the typical wedding music that most other guests want (he can do that easily) but played music to our style (majestic chill, soulection, funk, edm, early 00s hip hop). Lio has a residency at a major locals bar and has played at Life Is Beautiful. You can't go wrong. read more

I had a melody sample, but wanted 808's. Lio crushed the 808's, then we worked on drums together. Lio added a finishing counter-melody and we were done! He was cool enough to show me everything he was doing along the way - Anthony aka APH read more

So far, I've taken two deejay lessons from Lio and he thoroughly exhibits his education degree in the way he teaches. He is thoughtful, patient and can cater to different learning styles. He makes me feel confident in my abilities and is transparent and helpful in his feedback. I HIGHLY recommend him if you're wanting to learn hands on! read more

I was in search of taking some DJ lessons for fun and I came across Lio. Not only has he helped me have a lot of fun but I am now looking at making this a career! Lio is so patient, upbeat and encouraging. I highly recommend taking lessons with him as he is an incredible teacher and DJ!!! 5 stars is not enough! read more

I started getting lessons from Lionel a little over 2 weeks ago and they have been fantastic. Although covid caused us to do them via Zoom, they are still super helpful and got my production off the ground. 10/10 would recommend. Lionel has responded quickly to every question that has came up and been insightful during and after each lesson. read more

Lionel is the man! I reached out to Lionel cause I wanted to learn how to DJ. I worked with him for a few months and I can honestly say I feel pretty comfortable spinning parties now! He taught me all the basics and definitely will be recommending his services in the future! read more

I wasn't sure what to expect when initially contacting them in regards to my event but they made the process so easy. I told them what kind of event it was (Wedding reception) and they matched the music perfectly. Also, provided all the necessary equipment that was cheaper than what the venue was going to charge us! It's my parents 40th wedding anniversary next year and they already plan on using Sounds By Lio. Not only was the music great but the customer service and entire process of booking was flawless. read more

Lio is 11/10. He is exceptionally talented and knowledgeable. His professionalism was exactly what I was looking for. He is the best teacher/ mentor that anyone could ask for. He creates an environment that fosters creativity and positive energy while remaining honest and firm. Not only is he a professional DJ with tons of experience, but managed to help me refine my own musical skills in a short amount of time to the point where I was able to perform live at nightclubs here in Las Vegas read more

As an event manager, LIO is my go to for all my DJ services. He has done over 20 private events with me and every time he has been professional, on time, and was the life of the party. As an open format DJ he is quick to adjust to each events specific needs and clientele. He is the most professional DJ in Las Vegas and will certainly get your event poppin! He provides his own set up, equipment and sound. read more

Lio is awesome!! Not just knowledgeable in music but also on the industry as a whole. Just a few lessons were a game changer. Highly recommend read more
