A visually stunning, highly energetic Ibiza-styled DJ and percussion performance including Djembe, Congas, Bongos, and Timbales. I bring the music + a full percussion set up and roam around with a Djembe to entertain people close up. Plus I always bring some flashing tambourines to get people involved. Will happily incorporate any songs or styles to suit your event and take requests on the night as well! A one-man dance floor-filling performance for half the price of a regular DJ live act!

What a fantastic party we had celebrating our joint 40th and Assaf made all the difference. Super efficient & communicative, talked us through everything, helped us create the perfect playlists to get everyone on the floor. On the night he was fun, read the room, and just generally awesome. So many people said how great he was and asked where we had heard about him! Will 100% recommend. Would book him again in a heartbeat! Thanks, Assaf! Sophie & Grace x

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Energy and positive vibes! I get people involved a lot. From clapping hands to giving out tambourines, encouraging them to dance and even letting them play my percussion... There's also a high level display of skill adding a "wow factor" that is many times captured by video cameras and cell phones, making the event extra special!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Glastonbury Bestival Royal Festival Hall Party In The Park O2 Arena Kensington Roof Gardens Café De Paris Mnky Hse Sumosan Twiga Scala, Kings Cross El Divino, Ibiza Zero Gravity, Dubai Barasti Beach, Dubai Ministry of Sound, Kuala Lumpur W Hotel, Qatar World trade center, Manila Private parties in Moscow, Bahrain, New Delhi, Italy, Ecuador, Mauritius...

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Glastonbury/Top of the Pops with Tom Jones

Do you have different line-up options?

I'm providing both the DJ/music part and the entertainment. By covering both parts of the "DJ live" act, I can keep the cost down to half of what you might pay for the average DJ live act. If you want to add a Sax player, vocalist or a dedicated DJ, please contact me for options!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

If it's the same day and I'm not otherwise booked, that's not a problem. I will always try to work around your schedule. Just let me know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after the final set until the venue closes, I provide this for an additional £100.”

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 1 hour before the performance time. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance!”

Can you roam around while you perform?

Yes - I either roam around with my Djembe acoustically or in very big space with a microphone attached, so I can move around freely.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

The playlists/set lists I've crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, I'm always happy to chat through and make sure we find what works best for your event.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

A full PA and lighting system is included in your quote. I usually require a minimum of 2 metres by 2 metres space to perform. I also have a battery driven amp available for smaller events with no access to mains (such as outdoors) .

Can you learn song requests before the event?

You can absolutely request any music and songs you like. I've played 1000s of events and happily play+jam along to any song, any genre! No problem!
