I always give 100% for my customers and pride myself on going above & beyond what is expected. I've had many satisfied customers over the years and wanted to share some of the responses I've had...
"What can I say.... we had THE most amazing day we could have hoped for and a HUGE thanks has to go to you. The music was absolutely perfect, you listened to our suggestions and managed to get it absolutely spot on. We have already had many comments about how good the music was and people asking us how we knew you! You caught the beach vibe during the day and I couldn't believe how packed the dance floor was all night. On top of that, I really have to thank you for reading the day perfectly, advising and helping out liasing with the Brock House staff, the piper and the MC on what was happening to keep things ticking along and on time. I thought you were unobtrusive but available, attentive and surprisingly refreshed looking at the end of a very long day! I loved how we were able to move seemlessly from Scottish ceildh straight to the Black Eyed Peas and never missed a beat to really kick off the party. I am not usually at a loss for words, but I think you knew how important the music was to us as our friends like to dance(!) and I did not worry about a thing all day long. You are awesome, I think I might have to gatecrash your next wedding!! Brent, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone who asks (or doesn't ask!). HUGE HUGE thanks - you are the best!"
Jackie & Russell, Wedding Couple, Brock House
"Brent has been a DJ at
numerous parties and events that I have attended so when it was time for my own
big birthday bash, I knew I had to have Brent (DJ BFAD) as our DJ. With all the logistics involved in the party
planning process, there was one thing that I was sure of --- that my guests would have a
fantastic time partying and dancing the night away to Brent’s fabulous and
audience appropriate selection of tunes.
Since I had much catching up to do with many friends, Brent gave us some
upbeat background tunes low enough to allow my guests to mingle. When the time was right, Brent knew
exactly what to play and got the party rocking. Thank you Brent for making my
special party one that I won’t forget and neither will my guests."
Debra Thompson, Interior Decorator and
Architectural Colour Consultant
"I was very lucky to secure the services of DJ BFAD, on short notice, for my wife's surprise birthday party. Brent showed up on time for set-up and was ready to go before I knew it. He was already at the party when I got there but I was told he was integral to helping create the quiet room that surprised my wife. He found every song I requested, including a couple of oldies to make my father happy, and I can't remember the last time I was at a party, that wasn't a wedding, where everyone danced so much! He kept the dance floor packed and the vibe going till the wee hours. Disco, Latin, Top 40; Brent had it all. I would hire him again in a minute. Thanks again Brent!"
Robert Pacey, Pacey + Pacey Design
"We have used Brent Faddies (DJ BFAD) exclusively for all of our events over the last four years. As an organization, we are free to choose our supplier of music each time we hold an event and we choose Brent because he knows how to read the crowd and play the best music to keep them in the groove - whether it's chill dinner or serious dance music. He is both a consummate professional and a creative musical force; a rare quality to find in any individual. We will continue to use DJ BFAD for as long as we hold events because of the positively glowing feedback we get from guests each and every time. People want him back and you will too...trust me."
Jay Lundy, Chairman 2010 Canadian Squash Championships, Jericho Tennis Club
"DJ BFAD was a fantastic choice for our wedding. From our first meeting, he was genuinely interested getting to know us as a couple and finding out what our specific ideas were for the big day. He made awesome suggestions and gave insightful advice. The music he played at the reception kept the party (and dancing) going all night!! Everyone commented on how awesome the music was - from the grandmothers to the teenagers! He was highly reliable, punctual and detail oriented. In fact, he was the one part of the wedding that we felt we did not have to worry about! Thank you Brent - our wedding would not have been the same without you!!!"
Sarah Coad & Tyler Ow, Wedding Couple UBC Golf Course
"DJ BFAD was so great to work with, super easy going and willing to do anything to make our night special! We couldn't have asked for more, every song was better than the last!!"

Gerry Waller, Surprise Birthday Party, East Delta Hall
"We hired DJ Bfad for our wedding, and he couldn't have done a better job. Prior to the event, he provided a 2hr consultation and answered all our questions and emails promptly at no additional charge. The music was exactly what we wanted with no problems during the ceremony or the 5+ hours of dancing. It is obvious that DJ Bfad is an experienced, professional DJ and I would hire him again without hesitation. Thanks so much!"
Zach Duerr and Karen Costa, Wedding Couple, Grouse Mountain

Also, thank you for taking the time to get to know us and our music style. The choices you made were a real reflection of Neal and I as a couple. I felt wrapped in musical loveliness all eve. I only wish we could do it all over again! Perhaps a wedding vow renewal down the road. We hope you're available!"
Tracy & Neal Uchida, Wedding Couple, Performance Works, Granville Island

We had such a blast and I could not stop dancing. Thank you for being great about taking requests and keeping everyone moving!" "We were so happy that you were our DJ -- you certainly helped us live up to the "cool beats" that we promised our guests. You certainly read the crowd and kept everyone dancing all night. Our friends and family have commented on how great you were."

You very well prepared and very open minded to our wishes and our music tastes (even though they were not even in English in some cases!). The evening went very smoothly and seeing everyone dancing even after midnight was a sign that the music was well enjoyed! We would be more than happy to recommend you to friends and family!"
Alex Gutica, Wedding, Cascadia Hotel
"I have had the opportunity to observe Brent (DJ BFAD) at several special social events in which Brent was the the DJ. Most of these events have been squash tournament dinner parties and fundraiser events. Brent has presented himself in a very professional manner and most importantly, he is skilled at finding what keeps the interest of the audience high. Brent has made excellent choices in music selection for the different events. Each of these events, he customized the rhythm and flow of the music to meet the needs of the customers. I highly recommend Brent for DJ events and if I have an event that requires a DJ, I would contact and hire DJ BFAD."
Lulu Chou, Senior Professional Representative, Merck

Brent is a reliable business person with great people skills and work ethic - it's an easy choice to hire him as a DJ. Great Results, Personable, On Time"

His professionalism and attention to detail made our work worry free, and allowed me to focus on other elements of the events he was involved with. His versatility allows him to entertain a wide range of musical tastes, and enlighten audiences to new music and artists.”
Event Planner
"One thing that makes or breaks a party is music and I have to say, DJ BFAD MADE our party...more specifically our wedding! Not having much experience looking for a DJ, I did what any clueless bride-to-be would do, and did a Google search for DJs in the Vancouver area. With endless options of DJ companies – large and small, I had a really hard time narrowing down my search. I spoke to quite a few DJs over the phone and one that stuck out to me the most was DJ BFAD.
We met in person and I knew right away that Brent was the right guy for the job. Completely laid back and yet totally professional, Brent is everything anyone could want in a DJ. He has a vast knowledge of music, is passionate about his job, is professional and organized, and creates a vibe that makes people just want to have a good time. He went out of his way before our wedding and during it to make things perfect and he kept the dance floor packed all night long. Brent actually went to our venue a few days beforehand on his own accord to scope things out so that he would be prepared on the day of our wedding. He also asked for our itinerary two weeks before our ceremony (which we were still working on!). In many ways, Brent was more organized than we were and he was always quick to offer a helping hand wherever possible.
Brent is flexible and is able to to give as much or as little guidance as necessary when it comes to playlists. We actually only gave him two song requests – one was for our first dance and the second was for the father/daughter dance which he actually suggested. I would without a doubt recommend DJ BFAD to anyone looking for a professional and dynamic DJ. You won’t be disappointed!"
Nicole Reinert & Jeremy Wallace, Mt. Seymour Wedding Couple
Why Rainbow Groove Matters:
Review of Rainbow
Groove radio show CITR 101.9FM 9-10:30pm (2008-2010)
“Stimulating, funky, smooth and unpretentious are
just a few thoughts that come to mind when I think of Brent AKA DJ B-Fad's
musical vision called "Rainbow Groove." Lots of DJ's in
Vancouver can lay claim to being able to conjure up a mix of dance, groove,
soul and hip hop, but none seem to have the basic understanding of providing an
atmosphere conductive to having a groovy good time with the ear candy that
Brent is consistently able to serve up. Spinning for three years now on CITR in
the coveted 9 pm to 10:30 pm Friday evening time slot, Brent has been the spin-meister
setting up listeners for a fun night out. His sense of mixing various musical genres
is positive, energetic and youthful, making sure to give respectful nods to
classic musical recording artists of the past, weaving newer musical trends
into a truly unique listening experience that appeals to a broad spectrum of
listeners. Brent is truly someone who has built up a loyal listener base that
will follow him!”
R. Mark Desjardins, Internet Music & Book Reviewer, Author of "In Search Of Mae West"
