Image is everything.
It has nothing to do with water.

 

Let's polish you up!

As a DJ, your mix sets are tight and your programming is smooth. But if your fans don't know who you are, it does you no good! All professional DJs have drops. Listen to Skribble, Clue, and Funkmaster Flex-- you'll realize it's a great way to get your "brand" out there! When you hit your local dance spot, if the DJ's on top of his game, he'll let you know exactly who he is at some point with an ID over a break in the music! This is a drop!

You can even get a drop done to promote your night. Imagine having a sound bite to play a few times a night telling your fans that they're "...in the middle of Hot & Sexy Saturdays at Club Metropolitan!" Radio stations use these all the time coming out of commercials to imprint the station's call letters on the listener: "kickin off another 8 songs in a row on WXYZ!" They call them "sweepers" and "bumpers". Drops should be under 12 seconds in length to be effective; whether or not they have a bed (music or sound effects) depends on the intended use and your style.

These are also very useful for mobile DJs, which has become an extremely competitive market! There is no better pool to draw for your next party than the one that's in front of you right now! So take full advantage of a captive audience by letting them know who you are in a professional manner! It's also a great way to segue between two songs that are very different in terms of BPM range or feel.

The latest trend for Mobile DJs? Custom drops for your clients! This isn't something that every DJ company is doing, so you'll be sure to stand out. Imagine having a drop that lets everyone know that they're "partying with Lisa and Tom" on their wedding day! This is especially hot when applied to Proms, Mitzvahs, and Sweet 16s! Remember, this market is watching "My Super Sweet 16" on MTv; whatever YOU can do to make THEM stand out is to your advantage!

Radio stations can now use drophouse.com directly, too. That means a fresh feel to your liners, sweepers, and bumpers. Your station IDs don't have to sound like the same old thing! We can spruce up your image with a fresh voice and production that'll blow the amps away at your competition!

Can I get a mic in my hand?!
MCs are extremely popular especially in the nightclub scene. You know the drill: the crowd's been primed by the DJ for over an hour, and maybe you've said a few words here and there, but now it's time to make your entrance! Why not come up with a signature intro that people will associate with your arrival every time! It can be your name, or a signature song with an embedded intro over the break...anything, really! Whatever it is you hear in your head, we can assemble. This is not the time to be humble. If you wanna be big, you have to act big. And that means giving your name or your act maximum exposure.


What do I get in the end?

Every drop gets handled with exceptional care by the time we're done. That means whether Custom or Express, your drops and bumpers get mastered to sound big and polished ... and yes, LOUD! In the end, you get digital delivery in Hi-Resolution MP3 format, 224Kbps or higher, 44.1Khz. That translates to a file that's small enough to receive via email, yet clean enough for broadcast! Your files will also have complete MP3 tags, so if you're a DJ using digital software, it doesn't get any easier than "dragging-and-dropping" right into your virtual record crates. We also offer you the option of a master CD mailed directly to you for archiving; it'll have CD-Text, too. We recommend it, in case the Gods of Binary decide to strike and corrupt your precious hard disk media.

You're in good hands; here's our sample, doctor.

I'll take a #5. Hold the cheese.

OK. So you like some of the drops you've heard, and you want those very same ones, and you want them before the weekend.
Well, let's figure it out:

Drop House takes a lot of pride in being the #1 source for customized work. But, we've also gotten requests for some of the actual drops featured in our samples. You might be in a rush, or you want to save a few bucks, and we figured we'd help you out. We've come up with a compromise that can get the drops you want at a fraction of the cost, and get them to you usually within 48 hours!

What are you talking about?!

Basically, we've come up with Express Drops for the people who are looking to get some ID tools quickly and affordably, but not have to resort to generic cheesy drops. What you'll get is an 'off the rack' drop with some customization! All you need to do is browse through the library of drops that are specifically available for this service. Then, tell us the NAME you'd like the drop to identify. We'll take the drop you hear, partially customize it with your DJ name, radio station, party name-- whatever applies ... and get it back to you FAST--- usually within 48 hours, if possible! So you're NOT getting a generic drop; you're getting a drop with effects and your name, along with the quality mastering that Drop House is known for.

Take a listen to the Express Drops offered and pick some of your favorites. We'll be happy to price them out for you. Hit this Red Play Button to listen. You can either download them for listening off your hard drive, or open them directly to listen on the fly. Size matters in this case, and they're small enough for a speedy listen.
