Meet Joe: Owner, DJ & Event Architect

15+ Years Making Events Look Effortless

Planning an event—whether it’s a wedding, corporate gathering, or brand activation—comes with enough stress. The last thing you should worry about is whether the music and flow will feel effortless. That’s exactly why Aria Melody exists.

I’m Joe, owner and lead DJ at Aria Melody, and for more than 15 years I’ve built my reputation not just on great music, but on genuinely caring about every event as if it were my own. Yes, I’m a DJ—but I’m also your behind-the-scenes planner, vibe curator, and stress reliever.

“We loved Joe! So easy to work with! Our guests literally danced for 5 hours straight! Would absolutely recommend them”.

Maria, Bride

I’ve seen it all: last-minute timeline changes, unexpected weather shifts, speeches running long, or last-minute requests. (Don’t worry—I’ve handled it.) My role isn’t just pressing play; it’s ensuring every moment runs seamlessly, adapting in real-time, and creating the perfect soundtrack that elevates the experience.

For weddings: I carefully personalize every detail with my couples, building custom playlists and weaving your must-play songs into a seamless, live-mixed flow. My style is polished and professional—but never cheesy. I read the crowd, adjust on the fly, and create a natural, feel-good energy without the typical wedding DJ clichés.

For corporate events: I specialize in creating music sets that enhance the atmosphere without overpowering it. Whether it’s a networking reception, product launch, or holiday party, I create the right vibe—elevated, on-brand, and perfectly timed to support your event’s flow.

Oh, and did I mention I’m a multicultural music expert? Whether it’s Jewish, Indian, Persian, Polish, or American weddings, I blend genres effortlessly—respecting traditions while keeping things modern and fresh. From classic soul to Top 40, house to hip-hop, I play every genre with intention and flow to match the energy of your crowd.

Clients and industry professionals trust me not only because of my expertise, but because I make events easy, fun, and unforgettable.

Let’s talk about your event—I promise it'll feel easy, unforgettable, and perfectly you.

“Joe curated an excellent playlist that had the dance floor packed the entire night. People are still raving about how amazing the music was.”

“I plan and manage events all over the world.  When I shopped and interviewed prospective DJ partners in NYC, I realized that there was only one that took the time to ask me detailed questions about my unique show.  That was Joe at Aria Melody.  He backed up my initial impression of him by being both a planning and execution partner for my show.  The comfort level I had with him was uncanny for someone that I hadn’t worked with before.  Now that I know Joe, I readily recommend him as an extremely competent event professional who is successful because he made my success a priority.”
