For many years Mitchell Girt has been providing disc jockey services that range from large corporations to simple birthday parties and everything in between, so it would be fair to say I have preformed for literally hundreds of thousands of people during my reign as a disc jockey.

In the late nineties I have worked as a radio producer and commercial copywriter as well managing a sales staff at a Northern Michigan news/talk radio station.  My experience there led me to assume a failing trade promotion show.  I'm known for my Integrity and honesty among other things and taking on this project I realized the potential to provide discounted goods and services to the local listeners from local businesses that did not have money to advertise, but traded their wares to the station in lieu of cash for an advertising schedule.  After digging in and expressing fresh ideas to get the show off the ground, success was inevitable.

Always looking for an edge, I would do remote broadcasts of my program from new businesses who signed on.  There were trivia questions and other call-in enticements where the correct answer would warrant free gifts from the station.   However, other opportunities presented themselves, such as a position with the American Red Cross in blood collections, a position I held for about a year before cutbacks lead to being laid off.

During the brief time I spent unemployed I started to concentrate on my first love, live performance.  First were the website and all things that go with getting an “online identity”, such as S.E.O. (search engine optimization).  That is the process in which you design into the HTML words and phrases that would ultimately show up on search engines such as Google, Yahoo, ect.  Today all you have to do is type in my name or my location (Northern Michigan DJ), and I shows up usually on the first page.  After the internet was conquered I began the design of a computer system that would house all of my music and still leave room to grow my selection ten fold. 

Through the years music media has changed drastically. When I first started out, 45rpm records were the norm and as techno and hip-hop appeared on the scene, 12 inch extended play dance mix records became popular.  Unfortunately, due to my extensive collection, moving the library alone became logistical nightmare, not to mention the wear and tear on the records from both moving and playing them.  I decided to transfer my entire library to “bulk loaded” cassette tapes, which eliminated the wear on the records but required an enormous amount of time to do the real-time transfer, and of course the purchase of the new cassette media and equipment to play said media.  When all was said and done the entire library fit in four cases each about the size of a brief case, a considerable improvement in size, weight and convenience.  No more skipping records and a smaller DJ console as well. But cassette tape has a lifespan of about ten years, which lead to the newest and most efficient media today, the mp3.

Now with the new state of the art computer equipment, set up time has been reduced to about fifteen minutes where it used to take an hour.  Absolutely no cases of music to be moved, just a couple of small cases for lighting and a small case, about the size of a bread box for the computer.  As a precautionary measure I also carries a back up system consisting of a laptop computer and an external hard drive with the same music selections as the “master” computer.

However one thing remains the same after all these years, Mitchell Girt Disc Jockey offers unlimited hours, free special effect lighting and a night of memories you will never forget.
