Dirty Beats - DJ is a wedding entertainment specialist based in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

You want Dirty Beats at your wedding because you DON’T want to hear Uptown Funk, Cha Cha Slide, or all the same flaccid songs you’ve heard dozens of times. You wouldn't go to a fancy restaurant and order the same pasta you could’ve eaten at home. So why pay through the teeth for a Spotify playlist of random hits you’ve heard in the grocery store?

Dirty Beats was forged out of the desire to bring a sophisticated club vibe to Niagara’s most discerning ears. I will create a nostalgic musical journey for you and your best friends. Beats for your wedding, stag, doe and doe, house party, or club. Dirty: because the best nights are spontaneous and a little rough around the edges.

Your guests deserve to experience something new. My approach is to include tracks that you’ve never heard before, along with a fresh take on some familiar ones. I may play tracks at your wedding that I discovered (or produced) only days before.

I was classically trained as a violinist, but I also played drums and synths. I developed a deep appreciation of the structure, form, and emotional content of music. Although I spent years exploring acoustic forms, for me, there is nothing else like electronic music: The unmatched richness in textures, the unique sounds, the driving basslines. The way it can delicately hold you in a balance between high-energy dancing and a dream-like trance is unlike any other musical genre. I want you to experience the same rush I feel when that final chord resolves…or when the big dirty kick drum drops back in.

See you on the dancefloor.

More than just your typical DJ

We hired Dirty Beats for our stag and doe and he ended up being even better than our wedding dj (he was already booked for the wedding day). The music was phenomenal!!! We got to party with all our friends who couldn't make it to the wedding and it felt like we were in a private club. Honestly it was in some ways more memorable than my actual wedding and that is all thanks to Kirk's talent and song choices. I have been to so many weddings that all feel the same and this night was far from anything I'd experienced. 100% best decision! Thankyou

Amazing music and ambiance

Kirk did the music for our ceremony, dinnertime, and the dancing portion of our reception. While uniquely incorporating our requests, he had everyone dancing and having an amazing time! We had an incredible time dancing; and the floor was not empty for the entire night!

Kirk was also very responsive, patient, and considerate when working with us. He is both an amazing DJ and a great person.

Owner / Performer

Starting early in my life, I learned to play the violin. This served as the foundation for my musical interests. Since then, I also honed my skills as a drummer and performed in multiple bands. Now I am diving deep into the world of electronic synthesizers. Over the years, I developed a deep appreciation of the structure, form, and emotional content of music. The bulk of my training and experience was initially with acoustic music, but during my formative years, I discovered electronic music. I immediately fell in love. This discovery opened an entire world to me. The unmatched richness in textures, the unique sounds, the driving basslines. The way it can delicately hold you in a balance between high energy dancing and a dream-like trance is unlike any other musical genre. I want you to experience the same rush I feel when that final chord resolves…or when the big dirty kick drum drops back in.

See you on the dancefloor.
