The Collective

By merging the energy of a Live Band, with the flexibility of a great DJ to read and react to a room – you get the best of both worlds combined into one unique product.

Collective brings 7 musicians together at the DJ’s disposal, allowing him to pick and choose the musical direction in real time to best fit the party.  Musicians give the DJ the ability to create peaks and valleys in the show, in a way that is not possible from just spinning records. Ladies and gentlemen, we are ecstatic to introduce you to The Collective! This is a one-of-a-kind music experience that you won’t find anywhere else. A collaboration between DJ Ashton Martin and Lost Wax, this project is the culmination of years of shared events and creative evolution. What makes The Collective so special? It’s the perfect combination of live musical energy and the flexibility of a DJ to read and react to a room. With The Collective, you get the best of both worlds. So unleash your inner dance spirit and let The Collective take you on an unforgettable musical journey. Trust us, you won’t regret it!

DJ Live Band Combo

Like a QB, the DJ calls various instruments and/or vocalists up at specific times to help progress the energy and keep the interest of the audience, and uses the full band in chunks to create climatic moments in the set.

This diversity, coupled with interactive lighting and production – creates a party set that doesn’t get stale, and continues to keep guests on the dance floor and engaged all night long!
