“DJ Shimon has provided us with his talent, support and generosity on two occasions with charity events we have held. One for the Bobby Goldsmith Foundation, and TLC for Kids. His clarity and response to brief is spot on and his enthusiasm to take on the theme and reliably fit our requirements makes him a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend him to any event where you want a DJ who is fun, interactive, versatile and plays great music”
