From the 80's classics to today's Dance & R&B, nothing is a problem for Dazzling Daz! His technical ability matches his personality. When Jon Carson is asked about Darran the first thing he'll always say is 'he's such a nice guy and what a top jock too!' and this makes Darran the perfect DJ for any venue.

Neil Sackley
is someone you know you have seen or heard but it will take you a moment to place where. The reason for this is that for over a decade Neil has been working all over the UK be it on the Radio or in clubs, providing people with hours of quality entertainment. Almost any time a new Venue has been opened Neil has been asked to do it .With his outstanding music knowledge and experience from the BBC Neil continues to fill venues on a weekly basis.

Richard Dore-Dennis
Richard is everything you could want in a party DJ. His energy, enthusiasm and personality is spurred on by the love for his job. As an ex 70's dance troop member Richard's alter ego 'DJ 70's Rich' can be seen playing in the Flares bars on the south coast. Richard would be a tremendous asset to anywhere that requires party music from any era!

The Fudge
DJ FudgeIt's hard to know where to start when talking about Dan Fudge or The Fudge. His ability as a DJ is often overlooked as his personality is HUGE. He's funny, quick witted and has an amazing passion for his work. Often found to be jumping on top of the decks or running around the venue he is a DJ that has to be seen to be believed. Being an ex Red Coat, and working as DJ on numerous cruise ships Fudge has 'been there and done that' but does not have the 'been there and done that' arrogance that so many others would have picked up. A great guy and a true asset to Life & Soul International. You really have to see it to believe it!

Steve Earley
After taking some time away from being a DJ in late '06 early '07 to be a Banker, that's Banker with a B, Big Steve is back with more to offer than ever. With no exaggeration Big Steve has received accolades from every single gig he has done since his return. From both management and the public Steve has received praise, compliments and they just keep coming. During his time away Steve also set up his own Mobile Disco and with Sandy, the Robin to Steve's Batman, have also received both accolades and repeat bookings.

Michael Duncan
A fantastic DJ who is wise far beyond his age. At only 21 (at the time of writing) he has extensive experience in both the club and private fields of entertainment having played numerous venues across the south coast and London. One of the most enthusiastic people you'll meet when it comes to being a DJ. Once in the short summer of '07 Michael had a gig cancelled at the last minute, so he still got paid. When he was told this he sounded annoyed so again it was explained to him that he would still get paid, This didn't help. After some questioning Michael explained that it was that he was 'truly gutted that I had nowhere to work on a Saturday night'. Now that's a great attitude to work!

Kevin Dobbs
DJ Kevin DobbsLil' Kev is another of Life & Soul Internationals younger DJs but already he has honed his skills and played along side the likes of Radio 1's very own Dave Pearce and other big name DJ's. The Ex-Resident at a nightclub in Bognor Regis, Lil' Kev is one of the best. In '07 The opportunity to work for Life & Soul International on a Cruise Ship arose and Kev jumped at the chance. Starting as a DJ for the Youth Team in late June, Kev quickly worked his way to the Main DJ by early September of the same year. Full of energy and able to work well as part of a team. His price is rising so book him fast!

Pete LeGros
After working along side Pete for several years on the P&O Cruise Line, Jon Carson had this to say about Pete: 'Pete is a true professional; his ability to captivate and motivate a crowd is second to none. He has the talent to please and entertain everyone around him, everyone from the age of 9 to 99! Pete picks the right style of music that keeps everyone entertained and coupled with that the enthusiasm & personality of a great host makes for a party or event that is truly alive and kicking! Now that he's back on dry land I'm looking forward to working with him again.' For more info about Pete see www.mobilediscosouthampton.co.uk

Paul Mico
From Radio to Night Clubs and from Mobile Discos to the golf course Paul has done it all. A good friend to all the local celebrities and some what of a local celebrity himself in his home town of Southampton Paul is still one of the finest DJs around. His dry sense of humour is second to none and his talent as a DJ is unparalleled. He is just as at home playing music from the 60's & 70's as he is playing House and R&B released on promos last week. Paul knows that in order to be one of the best he has to stay ahead of the game and is constantly adapting to today's market whilst keeping the same High Quality that people who book Paul have come to expect. With bookings for nearly every weekend of the year we strongly urge that you book Paul some time in advance of your Party or Function to avoid disappointment.

The South Wales Mafia
DJ Sye AhernThey're not as scary as they sound. By mid 2007 Life & Soul International were in need of more and more DJ's each week to fill the venues that required a 'High Quality DJ'. Based in South Wales Rich Dore-Dennis had met and used numerous DJ's from the area and from the Universities. Sye Aherne & Dave Bliss fall into this ever expanding category as does Matthew Jones AKA DJ Stumpy. Sye & Dave, having proved their skills to be exceptional very quickly are now both resident DJ's working for Life & Soul International in venues on the South cost of Wales. Matthew is off on a Cruise Ship as DJ in December '07 but has some fantastic gigs under his belt whilst working with us. If you are looking for a DJ, no matter where you're based if the price is right, Matthew could be your man. In fact we've probably got him a residency already, but it won't hurt to call and check!
