Fig began as and continues to be a unique DEEJAY company. We value music, and are about playing great music and facilitating the event, not about doing a show with props. Not that props are bad, but -at a wedding? Okay, props are bad. You pay for a hip venue, you have tasteful flowers that reflect your aesthetic, your lighting and ambiance is just so – why a sweaty guy in a tux with truss lighting and a big mouth? If you get this, you will get us.

We are the new wave of Deejays and have been setting the trend since 1992 in Chicago. Hip, low key, trained to read the crowd and- here is the clincher, to manage, interpret and read event flow. We address the architecture of the space, the architecture or structure of the event, the mini events within the big event and then map to a desired outcome. We take into consideration demographics and your personal preferences then strategize to represent you musically at the event.

Our team training and interaction makes us unique. Unless you want a lone horse of course. When you work with fig you get the TEAM, we are invested and have a great structure where everyone wants your event to go well so they will work hard to support it at all levels – from admin to technical support. Even moral if you would care to share. Our Deejays attend regular weekly training and spend time working on everything from technical and logistical to the social aspects of working with people, this training in higher levels of consciousness and tracking combined with our experience is invaluable.

Our intake meeting is our first step. Call us to schedule a meeting with one of our sales people who are also trained in production and delivery and promise to be enormously additive to your dj hunting experience.
