I’m a nightclub, function and outdoor event DJ and host, based in the UK. I’d love to work with you to help take whatever you're planning to the next-level.
Aboutme,
AlexBaker.
Hey! I'm Alex
Thanks for checking me out.
You can find out a bit about me and the sorts of events that I've worked on here.
If you keep scrolling, there's live set recordings and mash-ups and remixes to listen to, too...
If you're thinking about making a booking or have an enquiry, just scroll down to the bottom of this page. There's a form to fill in as well as my contact details.
I bagged my first residency with a national leisure brand when I was just eighteen. Over the past two decades, I’ve rocked every type of gig and venue you can think of, including loads of LGBTQ+ events, plus held down a residency for 15 years. You’re in safe hands.
I’ve got a broad musical knowledge and build my set to your audience, or image. The aim is always keeping you happy and making sure everyone has a great time. If the event is all about requests, I can drop lossless internet streams of virtually ANY song, seamlessly into the mix.
No decks at your venue? No problem (and not that unusual these days). I can bring my Pioneer XDJ for a professional-grade setup. Got CDJs? I can plug-in and play from USB. Want some extra production too? I can add a full colour laser show and plenty more, if needed.
Ahead of the curve, I'm always up-to-date with the latest tracks and artists. On the flip-side, whether it’s Strictly or a viral TikTok dance that brings back a gem everyone else has forgotten, you can bet I’ll have a copy ready to drop.
Buzzy, quirky Brighton & Hove in the Southeast of England is where I call home, but I’m ready to hit the road and bring the party to you. As well as across the UK, I've been doing gigs abroad (and getting asked back) for over a decade, my track record speaks for itself.
Whether it’s a massive stage or someplace small and cute, I’ll bring the right energy. I’m just as comfortable playing to 5000+ festival ravers in a car park as I am cozy bars hosting a friendly gathering of 50.
Testimonials
You don't have to just take my word for it...
I have had the distinct privilege of collaborating with Alex Baker for more than a decade and a half. Throughout this time, I have consistently engaged him as a DJ across a wide array of events, such as Club Revenge, Brighton Pride and OhSo Social. With Alex, I know I’ll get professionalism and an innate ability to select the perfect music for any given moment. He has a remarkable talent for engaging the audience and also excels in delivering extended sets.
Alex is a great multi-format DJ. He’s never scared of the unknown, but keeps the party atmosphere going too. If you’re looking for someone who can play pop music, like you hear it on the artist’s singles and albums or on the radio and in the same breath, keep the night ‘in the mix’ – then Alex is your man.
I’ve spent the last twenty years involved with some of the biggest clubs and events on the South Coast. Throughout this time, I’ve employed Alex as both a resident DJ and for guest appearances. Yes, he’s loyal, punctual and promotes the night too… but the reason I keep him coming back, is that his dance floor is full when he starts his set to the moment he finishes. Excellent again and again (shame the same can’t be said for his fashion sense).

TheMashUps
Home-grown mash-ups have become my 'secret sauce' over the years...
Always worth more than the sum of their component parts, and guaranteed to get a reaction; sometimes surprise, sometimes shock, sometimes even bafflement.
Time after time though, they get people talking and earworm you once the party's finished. For example, Brighton's Club Revenge asked their customers to vote for their favourite tracks ahead of their 30th birthday celebrations - 5 of the top 50 songs we mash ups I'd made.

I still can’t get over the WAP/Stomp (Steps) mashup I heard in Club Revenge last Friday

@thatbakerface is this you?
@thatbakerface (opens in a new window)
HAHAHAHA. Yes, it is me...

I've never wanted to hear a mashup so much in my life.
Please select a track....
