by Ramu on Apr.20, 2010, under Weddings
| Ra-Mu and the Crew, Rhode Island’s rising star wedding DJ’s, continue to be a big hit at every wedding reception they perform at. Using cutting edge technology and polished MC’ing, they have been the consistent choice for the “generation Y” bride.
Apr 07, 2010 – If you asked DJ Ra-Mu from Ra-Mu and the Crew his favorite place to do weddings, Newport-Rhode Island would be his response everytime. “Newport is great”, says Ra-Mu. ”It’s like I’m working and on vacation at the same time. We’ve been realy fortunate to be working in Newport constantly for the past 10 years.” Frank Sinatra said that if he could make it in New York, he could make it anywhere. Newport-Rhode Island continues to be the pinnacle for elegant wedding reception. “Sometime during cocktail hour, I’ll look out the window and see the skyline and the ocean”, says Ra-Mu. ”The atmosphere hints at perfection where the smallest details matter. When you pull up to a driveway of any Newport Mansion, you can feel the electricity in the air and you know the night night will be special”. Ra-Mu and the Crew look forward to seeing you at your Newport Wedding Reception in 2011.

Yes, overpriced and pompous California wedding disc jockey Peter Merry Jr. is back at it again running his mouth and once again the target is a popular Rhode Island DJ Ra-Mu and the Crew. This blog entry was an attempt to stand up for fellow alterboy and wedding DJ Luke Renchan Jr. of Lukes DJ Service in Rhode Island. Luke, unable to fight his own battles, often enlists Peter to clean up his verbal mishaps. Peter, who obviously forgot that it was “Mind Your Freakin Business Day” in California spent Monday afternoon

Ra-Mu would like to see all Rhode Island DJ/MC’s enhance their disc jockey skill sets in 2010 and 2011. Apr 11, 2010 – Rhode Island Wedding DJ Ra-Mu from Ra-Mu and the Crew recently offered Luke Renchan Jr. of Lukes DJ Service DJ Lessons.
“I’m a fan”, says Ra-Mu. “I think that Luke has all the potential to be one of the biggest music moguls in the state of Rhode Island and beyond. That is why I want to teach him everything that I know so he can solidify that position.”
Today’s wedding DJ must not only be a great MC but also a great DJ in this highly competitive market. Being good in just one of the aforementioned categories would have good enough in prior decades. The modern bride wants to see a hybrid of both a polished MC and a talented “spinner of tunes”.
“I’d like Luke and I to work on beatmixing and musical sets to keep the dancefloor packed”, says Ra-Mu. “He’s got all the potential in the world and I know great things are going to happen for him. With a little practice and polish, the sky is the limit for Luke Renchan Jr.”.
