The “Viral Hits” List (TikTok & Reels Anthems)
Best for: Cinematic moments, bridal party entrances, and high-energy social clips.

These are the tracks currently dominating 2026. They have built in choreography and “Main Character” energy that looks incredible in your wedding highlight reel.

The Anthems: Pink Pony Club and HOT TO GO! by Chappell Roan are the undisputed queens of the dance floor this year.

The Vibe: Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter and A Bar Song (Tipsy) by Shaboozey bring that perfect cross genre appeal that gets everyone from your Gen Z cousins to your parents moving.

The Cinematic Moment: Beautiful Things by Benson Boone and Ordinary by Alex Warren provide those massive, soaring builds perfect for a “big drop” on the dance floor.

📼 The 2000s Throwback Time Machine
Best for: Bridging the gap between generations and massive singalongs.

Millennial nostalgia is the secret sauce of a successful 2026 wedding. These are the New Classics that guarantee a packed floor.

R&B Royalty: You legally cannot have a wedding without Usher’s Yeah! or Beyoncé’s Crazy In Love.

The Singalongs: When Mr. Brightside or Unwritten comes on, expect the music to be drowned out by your guests’ voices.

The Floor Fillers: Tracks like Low, In Da Club, and Hips Don’t Lie provide a steady rhythm that keeps the energy high during the middle of the set.

🎧 The House & EDM Power Hour
Best for: The late night after party and guests who want a festival atmosphere.

When the formal photos are done and the ties come off, it’s time to turn your venue into a boutique nightclub.

Modern Production: Feel So Close (Calvin Harris) and Where You Are (John Summit) represent the sophisticated, melodic house sound of 2026.

The Legends: Never underestimate the power of Avicii’s Levels or Swedish House Mafia’s Don’t You Worry Child. They are timeless for a reason.

High Energy: If you want to push the tempo, drop Losing It by FISHER or the classic rave energy of Everytime We Touch.

At Epic 1 Entertainment we are known for a high energy, no cheesy gimmick approach to DJing. Our mixing style is built on a foundation of professional beat matching and seamless transitions that keep the dance floor moving without the need for over the top mic antics.

Here is a description of how Epic 1 Entertainment handles song mixing and musical curation:

The “Epic” Mixing Philosophy
Unlike DJs who simply push play on a pre-set list, Epic 1 DJs are skilled at active mixing. They focus on:

Seamless Transitions: Using professional grade controllers , we blend tracks using beat matching and creative EQing to ensure there are no awkward silences or jarring tempo shifts.

Reading the Room: Our DJs are trained to observe the crowd’s energy in real time. If a particular genre is hitting, we will lean into it; if the energy dips,  we pivot to a “banger” to bring everyone back.

Open Format Versatility: Our library features a curated Top 1,000 list that spans Top 40, Hip-Hop, EDM, Country, Oldies, and Latin (including Cumbias). We are experts at blending these disparate genres into a cohesive narrative for the night.

Customization & Planning
Epic 1 Entertainment prioritizes your specific taste over a generic wedding set.

The 10 Day Rule: We request your final itinerary and music selections are completed 10 days before the event to prep custom transitions and ensure every must-play song is ready.

Request Management: We offer a Request/No-Request policy. If you allow requests, we wont just play them randomly; they mix them into the set where they fit best musically.

Clean Edits Only: For family friendly or corporate environments, we utilize subscription services like BPM Supreme and Promo Only to ensure all tracks are high quality, radioclean versions.

Professionalism Over Hype
Sophisticated MCing: While we are masters of ceremonies, we avoid cheesy DJ tropes. Our announcements are professional and polished, focusing the spotlight on the hosts rather than the DJ booth.

High-End Audio: We utilize 1,000 watt sound systems and subwoofers to ensure that even at high volumes, the mix remains crisp and clear, not distorted.

“We change our demeanor to match your expectations. We focus solely on mixing good music that helps to keep all of your guests on the dance floor.” — Todd Allen, Owner
