We took another road trip to Niagara On The Lake. This time we were at Queen's Landing. This is a beautiful venue for a wedding. It's nestled close to a Niagara waterfront and delivers a Georgian style experience. The facilities, service, and dining experience were superb. I almost had to force myself to leave after [...]
I must say... I felt right at home with this crowd. 3 Owls Entertainment provided sound, lighting, and DJ services for Jing & Yisong's wedding. The couple was based in the US so we planned the wedding remotely. Guests came from all over including San Francisco, Pittsburgh, and New Zealand. A lot of them were [...]
It was a great day for a spring wedding here at the Bayview Golf & Country Club. Toronto weather has never been better. Congratulations to Grace & Ervin! The event hall has a decent size with power outlets within reach. This is why setting up was a breeze. The hall has a balcony that overlooks [...]
Bodybliss had some super special guests for their Annual Customer Appreciation Night. So they turned to 3 Owls Entertainment to impress and make sure the evening went smoothly. The evening was graced by the presence of Philippine pop stars Raymund Lauchengco, Gino Padilla, and Joey Albert. It was a fun filled night with star stuck [...]
I didn't pay too much attention when Pioneer announced the XDJ-R1. This was because I've started to lose confidence in Pioneer's ability to innovate and maintain their dominance in the industry - especially as the industry starts moving away from CDJ's. The lackluster execution of Rekordbox has been a thorn on Pioneer's side for [...]
3 Owls Entertainment did another Chinese wedding here. The theme of the evening is Doraemon as the bride and groom were huge fans of Anime. The evening started with cocktails as usual. We then played a remix version of the Wedding March as the Bridal Party entered the tent. There were no first dances or [...]
The Rane 62 is a feature rich mixer for Serato users. The only drawback for wedding DJ's like me is it supports only one microphone. One approach to overcome this issue is to buy a microphone pre-amp or another small format mixer. Both will work but it's another device to connect and need a backup [...]
3 Owls Entertainment provided DJ, sound, and lighting services for a Chinese Wedding at the Shangri-la Banquet Hall in Markham. The service included Ceremony and Reception. When you mix a lively couple + super cool parents/elders + Latin dancing enthusiasts, you get a super fun wedding. We made some new friends along the way and [...]
c/o Matt Chan Lion Dances have long been part of Chinese culture. These dances are part of grand celebrations like New Year, Birthdays, and Weddings. It is believed to bring good fortune and luck. For Chinese Weddings, it adds a touch of class and culture since you don't see much of it anymore. Lion [...]
I'm a heavy user of the iPad ever since I bought my iPad 2 almost two years ago. The touch interface and its ultra portability opened up new possibilities for me in my craft. I've had a few friends here in Toronto ask me about my weapons of choice so I decided to put this [...]
