Tainted Love Bowie Edition Party w/DJ Jane Elizabeth – 5/26/2023

May 11, 2023 | News


Soft Cell’s pioneering 1981 cover of the Northern Soul classic, “Tainted Love,” is the inspiration for this awesome 80s dance party. Building on a solid foundation of New Wave, we’ll dig deeper into the catalog of massive hits and overlooked misses from the late 70s through the early 90s – pivotal years in musical history that blurred the lines between Analog and Digital, Disco and Synthpop, Funk and Hip-Hop. A time when Alternative was called Post-Punk, Indie actually meant independent, and Throbbing Gristle’s “Hot on the Heels of Love” surely could have been alongside Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” on the charts…with today’s perspective. Other passions include CBGB-era New York, Batcave-era London – Punk Rock, Glam Rock, Kraut Rock, Girl Rock, Dad Rock, Rockabilly, Ska, Machine Soul, Blue-Eyed Soul, Darkwave, Coldwave – plus some guilty pleasures in the (strictly) Old-School Rap department.

Hosted by DJ Jane Elizabeth (Stylus DJ Entertainment, Breakfast Club Philly 2010-2015).

DJ Jim went above and beyond

Feb 20, 2023 | Reviews

 

 

“We hired Stylus for our wedding after having an amazing time on the dance floor at my cousin’s wedding in May 2021, who first used Stylus. We couldn’t have been happier. Jane and her team made planning a breeze (something that is extra welcome during the hectic months leading up to the wedding day). We paired with DJ Jim and could not have had a better match. With our music choices, he built the best curated list of music that hit upon my and my husband’s favorites, special songs that hold significance for us in our relationship, and got the crowd dancing on the floor after dinner. You would think that’s all it takes to be a great wedding DJ. But DJ Jim went above and beyond – he anticipated scheduling questions and provided us suggestions ahead of time that we never thought of. All in all, DJ Jim and Stylus overall were one of our top vendors for the wedding. And as a testament to DJ Jim, one of my close friends booked Stylus for her own wedding after having a blast celebrating at our wedding.” -Andrew Q. —The Knot & Google

Mariko made our night

Nov 30, 2022 | Reviews

 

 

“Mariko was the perfect choice for our intimate but boisterous Brooklyn wedding. She took a lot of time with us before the day to make sure she could deliver on the dance party we wanted while making sure we heard our favorite songs. All of our friends couldn’t stop raving about the DJ and the playlist. Most importantly, Mariko accommodated a spontaneous guest request to do the horra even though we’d decided against it in planning. She made it happen seamlessly and it was the highlight of the night!” -Amanda D. –Wedding Wire, The Knot & Google

DJ: Mariko
Venue: Midtown Loft & Terrace, NYC

DJ Jen Urban was beyond amazing

Nov 22, 2022 | Reviews

 

 

 

“Our wedding experience with DJ Jen Urban was beyond amazing. Jen is kind, laidback, fun, funny, and did a great job incorporating all the music we love and building on it to keep all our guests dancing and happy. She gracefully handled making announcements throughout the night, deftly navigating requests while tactfully honoring our very idiosyncratic do-not-play list, and she totally got our taste and built out our playlists with jams we would have picked ourselves. She rocks! And our experience booking through Jane at Stylus was smooth and lovely.”

Best Dance Party Ever!!!

“DJ Mariko was such a fun and wonderful person to work with and created one of the best dance parties ever! She was super flexible and responsive when we wanted some very specific music incorporated and truly made the entire ceremony magical. She did a great job with announcements, and brought humor and charm to the entire event. You cannot go wrong with having DJ Mariko as your event DJ!” -Aakriti M. –Wedding Wire, The Knot & Google

We could not have been happier

Oct 12, 2022 | Reviews

 

 

“We could not have been happier with our experience with Stylus and DJ Mariko! Right off the bat, we were so appreciative of the upfront and comprehensive pricing options available, and the wide selection of DJs there are to pick from. My wife and I wanted our wedding to be a party and Mariko delivered that and more. So many times my friends came up to me saying it was the best wedding playlist/DJ experience they have ever had. The perfect balance of throw-backs and new hits, none of our “do-not-plays”, and ALL of our “must-plays” we literally did not leave the dance floor. Mariko also handled the ceremony and processional music PERFECTLY which I think is a big part of the reason it felt so magical. I cannot recommend the Stylus team, and especially Mariko, enough! If you want to have the most fun wedding, hire them!” -Mary K. –The Knot

Venue: Dumbo Loft, Brooklyn, NY

Best music vendor to work with—DJ Mariko & Stylus team made our wedding an unforgettable experience!

Oct 2, 2022 | Reviews

 

 

“We really loved having DJ Mariko, Jane and the Stylus team be a part of our wedding day! We truly enjoyed getting to work with the Stylus team to bring our wedding vision to life and help us in creating unforgettable moments that will last a lifetime—Mariko honestly was the superstar vendor of our day (all of our guests loved and adored her energy, vibe, MC’ing and DJ’ing!! ⭐⭐⭐) and she did a spectacular job throughout the entirety of the day: from being super flexible and making changes on the fly, to the small yet personalised touches such as supporting us with the audio needs for the ceremony and toasts and making karaoke happen despite the challenges with setup—these details didn’t go unnoticed from our family and friends!—from start to finish. Even leading up to the big day, Mariko and Jane have been truly accommodating and responsive since our initial conversations and Mariko really took the time to ensure that we were comfortable, the flow was flawless and we got to listen to all the songs and music that we wanted since my newlywed husband and I have a pretty diverse and eclectic music taste. I would 1000% times again hire Mariko, Jane and the Stylus team over anyone else as not only are they a badass female-owned business, but they truly made our wedding an unforgettable experience for everyone. Highly, highly recommend!!” -Courtney C. –Wedding Wire, The Knot & Google

DJ Jen played the best wedding music!

Sep 14, 2022 | Reviews

 

“Hiring DJ Jen and Stylus was possibly the best decision we made in planning our wedding. She played the best wedding music we have ever heard.
We could not find a DJ who vibed with us in the Ithaca, NY area, so we contacted Stylus to see if one of their DJs was willing to travel. DJ Jen was eager to do so!
In planning, we gave Jen a list of songs and vibe that we liked and she played exactly what we wanted and used excellent judgment to keep people dancing. We are a gay couple and wanted a welcoming 80s gay club vibe throughout the night; we got exactly exactly what we wanted.
We got married at an outdoor reception venue during a hot day. We were worried that the heat would keep people from dancing but the whole dance floor was absolutely packed for the whole evening. People ranted and raved about how good DJ Jen’s music was (both during and after the wedding).
DJ Jen was so helpful throughout and managed MC’ing (in a nicely reserved, laidback way), dealing with a break between setup and start of music, and even a little rain that got on her equipment. She is exceptionally cool and really knows music. We are just so happy that Jen was our DJ.” -Nick J. – The Knot

Tainted Love 80s Dance Party w/DJ Jane Elizabeth – 10/21/2022

Sep 14, 2022 | News


Soft Cell’s pioneering 1981 cover of the Northern Soul classic, “Tainted Love,” is the inspiration for this awesome 80s dance party. Building on a solid foundation of New Wave, we’ll dig deeper into the catalog of massive hits and overlooked misses from the late 70s through the early 90s – pivotal years in musical history that blurred the lines between Analog and Digital, Disco and Synthpop, Funk and Hip-Hop. A time when Alternative was called Post-Punk, Indie actually meant independent, and Throbbing Gristle’s “Hot on the Heels of Love” surely could have been alongside Blondie’s “Heart of Glass” on the charts…with today’s perspective. Other passions include CBGB-era New York, Batcave-era London – Punk Rock, Glam Rock, Kraut Rock, Girl Rock, Dad Rock, Rockabilly, Ska, Machine Soul, Blue-Eyed Soul, Darkwave, Coldwave – plus some guilty pleasures in the (strictly) Old-School Rap department.
