We need a DJ in the Chicago area that has music that will appeal to both families. My side is Jewish but not religious, a bit proper, and has people ranging in age from toddlers to mid-90s. His side is Mexican Catholic, a little more religious very informal, and much younger- the oldest person being mid-50's.
Everyone is tolerant/open-minded, etc. but we want music that will get everyone on the dance floor and show respect for differing cultures. A little bit of classic, danceable rock for my parents and people of that generation, a little bit of 90's pop for our group of friends, Spanish-language pop for his family, and maybe a few old Mexican ballads for slow-dancing.
We're just starting to look at DJs but I'm not finding anyone who seems to be comfortable moving between genres. Somehow, no one seems to advertise music collections ranging from Van Morrison and Earth, Wind, and Fire to Juanes and Ace of Base (his request!). Does anyone have any recommendations?
