DarkPopChris
is first and foremost,
a music fan.
His 30 + years
as a music producer,
and musician
have focussed his instincts
as a DJ.
​
Chris draws upon
his extensive knowledge of,
and an openness to,
widely differing musical genres,
from across the decades,
to put together
magical musical sets,
tailored to each client’s
personal style.
He is particularly fond
of the more ‘left of centre’
musical genres,
and is guaranteed to throw in
a few pleasant surprises
that make you smile.
​
See you on the dance floor.
DJ Testimonials
​
"Dear Chris,
I wanted to write and thank you,
for the excellent job you did
with the music for our wedding.
​
Many people said how much
they enjoyed the music,
and we loved how you integrated
all the different styles together.
Apologies that we lost track
of our schedule a little,
since we were having
such a good time!
Thank you for being
so accommodating to us
in this regard.
It was great to meet you again,
& amazing to dance to
Alien Sex Fiend at my wedding :)
Cheers
Liam"

Various Events

​
"Our company has used Chris
since 2010, for events such as
Rock The River music festival,
private parties, weddings
and NYE.
He is our DJ of choice,
and all of our events
have been a great success.
Chris is very friendly, talented,
and provides you
with a professional service
and the music you need.
​
We cannot recommend
a better person."
To put it simply,
Chris provided music
for our wedding,
and later again
for the wedding
of some close friends.
​
But there is nothing simple
about Chris' attention
to the detailed preferences
of his clients,
or his instinct for engineering
the timing and flow of music
for the best party!
I can't imagine any other DJ
being so invested in crafting
– actually crafting –
such a personalised experience
the way he did for us
on our wedding day;
setting up and moving equipment
seamlessly from each of three,
very different locations,
arranging and timing the music
for each location
absolutely perfectly,
and curating a party playlist for us
that eventually became
the main talking point
amongst our friends.
​
Music is a huge part of our lives
and was hugely important
at our wedding,
so for us, Chris' expertise
created a rare
and much-cherished experience.

"Chris is really
the consummate professional.
Always over-prepared,
with a deep love of music,
and a passion for making
his killer selection,
sound like a million bucks."

"I recently hired Christopher Tuck
to DJ at my 60th birthday event.
​
The brief was to encompass music
from the past six decades,
specifically from the alternative
and indie genres.
His playlist was spot on
and his presentation
and attention to detail
is impeccable.
​
Chris is also
an award-winning sound engineer
and music producer
and has been involved
in the music industry
for decades.
​
I have absolute faith
in his abilities to deliver upon
any work entrusted to him."
