FERNANDO SERRANO

There are Disc Jockeys… and there is Fernando Serrano. A passionate and savvy DJ with nearly 10 years of experience in the private and nightclub industries. Fernando has rocked dance floors from Ecuador to The Hamptons. 

Fernando’s passion for music comes from an early age, sharing late evenings with his father as he played vinyl records in his native Ecuador. Those late nights combined with the music played throughout the family’s business complex gave Fernando the musical inclination he still enjoys today.

His desire to become a DJ came about from listening to the local dance stations late nights, recording live sets from jocks such as Junior Vasquez, Denny Tsettos, DJ Skribble to name a few. His chance to become a Disc Jockey came right after high school where he began working for one of the leading DJ companies in Northern NJ. During his tenure, he learned the ins and outs of the mobile DJ industry, and where he honed his skills as an entertaining DJ and MC while obtaining his honors B.A. from Montclair State University.

Since 2007, Fernando has performed at over 350 events (over 100 weddings) where he has served celebrity clients such as the Real Housewives of NJ, members of the NY Giants and NJ Devils amongst others. In addition, corporate clients such as H&M, Guess? Jeans, and Condé Nast have relied on Fernando’s event production skills and DJ talent to help them launch new products and hold massive Fashion Week events in New York City.

Fernando’s charisma and skills have made him a much sought after entertainer in the wedding industry. His impeccable mixing skills, ability to transcend genres, and his never-ending energy allows him to create an unforgettable DJ experience for any event.

CHRISTIAN MENESES

Christian Meneses (alias DJ Menes) is one half of the talented BNEG team. Born and raised in NJ by Colombian parents, Christian enjoyed a childhood filled with music from all eras. His passion for the art of playing records came from listening to talented DJs on the radio each and every weekend. He began collecting music during high school and to this day his library boasts over 30,000 unique records.

After high school, he was introduced to a well-respected DJ entertainment company based in Central Jersey. During his years of working at such company, he learned the ins and outs of the Mobile DJ industry. From equipment setup and maintenance to back office management, Christian had a hands-on learning experience that solidified his passion for the industry. 

Christian purchased his first set of turntables during his freshman year of college and soon gained popularity amongst his classmates and fraternities. He developed his sound and began producing his own mix tapes for exposure. His drive and personality allowed him to be tapped to play at the most popular nightlife destinations in Central Jersey. All this was achieved while he attended Kean University and obtained his Bachelors and Masters degrees.

Christian is a warm and personable member of our team. His sense of humor and relentless drive has allowed him to become one of our most sought after DJs. His nightclub background as well as his mobile DJ experience allows him to develop a memorable and exciting entertainment experience for all of our clients.

His passion for music, DJ technology, and the satisfaction he gets from helping people celebrate life is still as strong as the day he first touched a record. Weddings, Sweet 16s / Quinces to elaborate corporate events, Chris can handle it all.
