Inexpensive DJ recommendations

My FI and I are in the process of looking for a DJ. We are looking to spend under $1000. We are looking for something low-key (no party favors, fog/haze machines), just a DJ, maybe an MC and lighting. We are loking at Souds of Music DJs in Islin http://soundsofmusicnj.com/index.htm. Has anyone used them before? Woud you recommend them? Do you have any recommendations for other DJs?

    Here is the review I wrote for weddingwire.com and projectwedding.com. And Abe is very reasonably priced.

    Soundtrax Enterprises DJ- Abe was the DJ at our wedding. It wasn't even a week after we decided to use him and he already visited the venue, looking at the space, checking out the size of the room, etc. Abe guided us as to what types of songs were best played during dinner, were best for dancing, etc. He also gave us ideas for various events during the wedding, such as alternatives for garter throw, an anniversary dance, etc.
    Abe was set up well in advance of the wedding. He “snacked” a bit during the cocktail hour, as he thought it was “unprofessional” to leave his music unattended. The songs went seamlessly from one to another, with Abe talking when necessary, but always very unobtrusively. One of the highest compliments I can give Abe is that so many people came up to me after the wedding and said that it was the first wedding they had gone to in a long time that they did not have to scream to the person next to them in order to have a conversation. The music volume was perfect for dancing, yet people were able to enjoy the company of each other. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any occasion that requires a DJ.

    DH and I used Frank Di Giovanni of Sound Illusion DJs. Frank is great to work with, can do whatever music and lights, etc you want and is affordable. We told him we wanted him to be low key and he was.

    A friend of mine used Sound of Music and the reception was awesome without breaking the bank. We are using them as well.

    I highly recommend Bob Albrecht from Fantasy DJs.  He was terrific! They definitely are in your price range.
