Music and DJ Styles by Mal Williams
I am very versatile with music and I can specialise in every decade from the 1950's to the current date. I have over 40,000+ single tracks on my music database which are spread over sixteen plus genres of music. Recently I performed several 80's theme nights which were a huge success. One of the pictures in my gallery below illustrates the 80's theme disco night on last New Year's Eve showing "Mr T" and "Michael Jackson" standing either side of the disco. As well as performing outstanding party disco sets I am also an accomplished beat mixing DJ, and have won the "Best Night Out" award for my performances at a local night club for several years in a row, so when I perform at your event you will get the best of both worlds: you will get a personality DJ who knows how to correctly address an audience, perform and mix the music for all ages and also a DJ who knows how to beat mix that perfect blend of music.

Disco Equipment Light Show Options ( BRONZE - SILVER - GOLD - PLATINUM )
The disco choices available to you enable you to fine tune the disco equipment to fit your audience size, venue space, budget and personal taste. The disco equipment is separated into easy to follow categories from Bronze to Platinum and you will find choosing a disco very easy when you see the simplified 'Disco Equipment Guide' below this section.
Visual Presentation "First Impressions Count"
All Pro-Disco light shows have been carefully designed and built up from many years of disco light show experience. The first item you will notice from the disco picture show above is the unique front mirror screen which was hand crafted from over 450 mirror mosaics. The front screen is multi functional, it keeps wandering children safe from wires and plugs and also provides a great visual display which your guests will notice and also the screen tends to always end up in your wedding disco pictures... one of the many good reasons why Pro-Disco makes the front screen look sensational.
When the lights go down the disco lighting is an essential ingredient in obtaining a great party atmosphere which is why Pro-Disco has invested a great deal of time and money into the specialised lighting and control systems which it uses.
LIGHTING Dance Floor: all disco shows will support a state of the art "TRI-LED" lighting system which has full brightness and colour control for setting the perfect mood directly in front of the disco... this Hi-Tec solution is also capable of spectacular effects; your photographers and videographers will enjoy capturing your first dance with minimal flash hi-lighting due to Pro-Disco's careful illumination.
LIGHTING Effects: In addition to the TRI-LED flood and effects lighting Pro-Disco supplies a whole selection of spectacular effects lighting from LED ceiling projectors, Up to 3 Synchronised Lasers, Moving Head Projectors, LED Pixel Tracks, Haze Machines, Silk Flame Machines and Bubble Machines... we understand that you may or may not want to have all these special effects and we have arranged a simple to follow disco guide to help you plan the right show for your party which will always contain the core sound and light ingredients for your spectacular party.
LIGHTING Venue: In addition to lighting the dance floor and effects lighting on near walls and ceilings, Pro-Disco's powerful multi-colour up-lighters can reach out and further enhance the entertainment feel of your night by up-lighting walls and features, right around your room, even at the back. Try to imagine the amazing effects of colour themeing your venue and also the exciting atmosphere that it can create to have your entire venue lighting synchronised to your disco light show.
LIGHTING Laser: Lasers are the most spectacular forms of lighting on this planet! Pro-Disco can provide a choice of up to three professional laser systems for the ultimate visual sensation... the laser systems are fully integrated throughout the disco options. All the multiple laser systems are fully synchronised and controlled by computer. All laser systems have multiple capabilities from producing customised art work, running world class laser shows synchronised to music to projecting guest messages on virtually any surface, at any size, or any length of message. All laser guest messages can be updated live and alternated between spectacular beam and graphic displays.... LASERS "See The Difference" see more...
SOUND System: Pro-Disco uses the legendary "NEXO R2 series" sound system which is believed to be one of the finest sound systems in the world. Music played through this powerful sound system is distortion free, perfectly clear and never fails to stimulate those dancing vibes...

Summary by Mal Williams
Thank you for spending your valuable time on this web page, I understand that finding the correct entertainer for your most precious event can be a daunting task when faced with so many entertainers on the internet who are all telling you that they are the best.
I hope that the information that I have provided on this website has been helpful and will enable you to make a confident decision on who is best for your big night, If you would like to have a free consultation before making any decisions, you are very welcome to join me at my home in Hampshire where we can go through your event details and discuss any entertainment questions that you may have (please call Terry on 023 80760930 to arrange a convenient time).
COST? The discos from Pro-Disco will cost less than you think... all the prices are competetive and without a doubt you will see that they represent some of the best value disco entertainment around when you take all considerations into account.
Your entertainment is important and you can rest assured that if you book your event through Avenue Artistes that you will be booking an established, trustworthy, enthusiastic entertainer with over 20 years of valuable entertainment experience and also one of the finest entertainment systems available, why settle for anything less than you deserve on the big day?
LASERS "Know The Difference"
There are 1000's of mobile discos which have cheap low powered, simple laser lighting BUT there is a world of difference between the laser lighting used in all Pro-Disco Laser Shows. The GOLD and PLATINUM laser disco packages use professional high power touring lasers with state of the art high resolution closed loop scanners, the laser shows are all computer controlled and most of the shows have been written by some of the best Laserists in the world, these lasers cost many thousands of pounds as opposed to a few hundred pounds and you also require an operators license (HSG 95) to run them in public events... ALSO live laser messaging and multi head synchronisation requires an expensive computer control system.
Music and DJ Styles by DJ "Mal Williams" cont...
The DJ and music styles that I will perform on the party night will reflect the style of music that you would personally like to hear and a mixture of the music that your audience would like. During the party I will encourage music requests and build the party atmosphere around the vibes coming back from the dance floor. I have listed below some of the music genres which I cover... I will often perform a mixture of these music genres in one night.
Resident DJ in UK's best 5 star hotel "Chewton Glen".
I am very privileged to be the current Resident DJ of the UK's finest rated hotel "Chewton Glen" where I have performed weddings and company functions over the last 4+ years. This hotel is ranked as fourth best in the world and has exceptional standards (contact Adam White, Senior Banqueting Manager, if references are needed).
Resident DJ of Southampton's best Student Night Club "Kaos"
For the last 13 years I have been fortunate to be part of one of the best and longest standing student nightclubs in Southampton. I was chosen as the core resident DJ of "Kaos nightclub" 13 years ago when the nightclub had almost financially gone under. 5 years after starting at the club my Wednesday night was getting real recognition from all the local student unions. The Solent University had voted my Wednesday night as "Best Night Out" for 5 years in a row. My Wednesday nights are still amongst the busiest nights of the week (contact Kaos Nightclub Southampton if references are needed).
Club DJ Award
I have also won the "Don't Stay In" award for "Best Club DJ", there is a press picture on this site showing the very moment I was told I'd won the award.
