Michael Zimmermann at the DJ booth, DJ for Remscheid

DJ Remscheid · Bergisches Land

From Lennep to Lüttringhausen: music for your celebration high above the Wupper.

Whether Lennep, Hasten or Lüttringhausen, Wermelskirchen, Burscheid or Solingen: I am Michael Zimmermann and I mix what works for your guests. Remscheid lies 365 metres above sea level and has long been known as an industrial centre for tools and mechanical engineering. Celebrations here take place in courtyard halls, event halls and function rooms, each with its own sound. We work out how the evening is built up in advance by phone or video call.

Occasions

What are you celebrating in Remscheid?

Three pages for three kinds of celebration: choose the card that fits your date in Remscheid or the Bergisches Land.

Wedding

DJ Hochzeit Remscheid

Drinks reception, dinner in the banquet hall and dancing until late: the music accompanies your day from the guests' arrival to the last song.

Company party

DJ Firmenevent Remscheid

Anniversary, summer party or Christmas party: a mix that accompanies conversation and then fills the dance floor.

Birthday

DJ Geburtstag Remscheid

From a thirtieth in a courtyard hall to a seventieth with the family: the music follows your guests and your taste.

Around Remscheid

Tools, X-rays and reservoirs.

Remscheid is home to 113,333 people, spread across four districts from Lennep to Lüttringhausen. This is where the Mannesmann brothers invented the rolling process for seamless tubes in 1885, and Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen was born in Lennep in 1845.

The Eschbach reservoir is considered the first drinking water reservoir in Germany, and on the border with Solingen the Müngsten Bridge spans the valley. Whether you celebrate in Lennep, in Hasten or in Wermelskirchen and Burscheid makes no difference to me; Radevormwald and Hückeswagen are also among the places where I play for you.

About me

Behind the booth for every celebration.

I learned to DJ in a nightclub, and to this day what counts for me is what happens in the room. Over 1450 events have come out of it, more than 650 of them weddings, plus company evenings and birthdays from the living room to the large hall.

60 Google reviews with an average of 5.0 stars show how my work is received. Before I touch a track list, I want to know who is celebrating, how old the guests are and what the evening should mean to you.

At DJ Allianz e.V. I lead workshops on transitions and reading the dance floor. In a city where craft and engineering are a tradition, I like that: a clean transition is handwork too.

Services

Everything included.

Sound and lighting for rooms of up to about 150 guests, wireless microphones for speeches and backup equipment come to every party. On request I add uplights, a photo booth, an audio guest book or live music to the DJ set. We discuss the schedule and music calmly beforehand, so that nothing is left open on the day itself.

What can we expect when we book you as a DJ for Remscheid?

I bring the sound system, lighting and wireless microphones and take care of setup and soundcheck. We talk through the music in advance, and I decide how the evening unfolds on the dance floor.

Do you also play in Lennep, Lüttringhausen and the neighbouring towns?

In all four districts as well as in Wermelskirchen, Burscheid, Radevormwald and Hückeswagen. Tell me where you are celebrating and I will let you know whether the date is still free.

We have a preferred date but no confirmation from the venue yet: when should we get in touch?

Get in touch as soon as the date is fixed, because popular weekends go quickly. Within 24 hours I will let you know whether your date is free.

Several generations are celebrating with us: what music will be played?

I mix soul, pop, rock, disco and current chart hits depending on how your guests respond. Anything you do not want to hear, you tell me in advance.

Our hall is a converted factory building with narrow access: will your equipment fit through?

My standard setup consists of handy individual pieces, and I allow 40 minutes for setup and soundcheck with about 2.5 by 1.5 metres of space. We clarify routes, lift and steps in advance, and a few photos are enough for me.

What happens after we send our enquiry?

You will get a reply from me within 24 hours. In a no-obligation video call we get to know each other, and afterwards you receive a personal offer.

Is your date already set?

Then enquire right away, before another couple or team books the same Saturday.

DJ+: live musicians right in the middle of my mix.

If you want more than a DJ set, I bring in live musicians from my network. They join in between the tracks and fit into the flow, whether the celebration takes place in a banquet hall, an event hall or a function room. We decide together which line-up suits you.
