About DJ Hooded Wolf

DJ Hooded Wolf

DJ/MC

Hi! I'm Jake, a.k.a. DJ Hooded Wolf. I'm a DJ based in NJ just outside of Philadelphia, PA. My career kick-started as the opening DJ for DJ Frequency, the mastermind behind the Grammy Award Winning track "Monster" by Eminem feat. Rihanna. Since then, I've been fortunate enough to perform at a wide range of events and venues, ensuring every moment is brimming with excitement. My passion lies in creating an electrifying atmosphere and curating unforgettable experiences for everyone present. Make your next event unforgettable with music provided by DJ Hooded Wolf!

Every event, no matter the size or occasion, should be treated with the care and dedication that only a professional DJ can bring. I deeply understand the importance of creating a memorable experience that leaves a lasting impact on my clients and their guests. I make sure every booking I take is a personalized, professional, and premium experience. And since I'm a solo-op, when you book me, I show up. Every client gets DJ Hooded Wolf and not a rotation of staff.

    Best DJ in the business

    Jake made our special day one we will never forget. From MCing the ceremony to keeping the dance floor lively all night, he absolutely killed it! The wedding playlist process was very user friendly with the app and he helped fill in the gaps during our walkthrough. We would recommend Jake to any brides and grooms looking for a professional and reliable entertainment package.

    Thanks so much for the kind words, Jessica! MC'ing and DJ'ing your wedding was an absolute blast. I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed using the app for our planning. You guys were a pleasure to work with and it was a privilege to be part of your big day. Wishing you two a lifetime of love and happiness together!

    An Amazing DJ for An Amazing Night

    DJ Hooded Wolf was absolutely incredible! He kept the dance floor packed all night and did an amazing job reading the crowd and playing the perfect mix for everyone. He was professional, responsive, and so easy to work with throughout the entire planning process. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and would recommend him to anyone!

    Jake SchwingAug 18, 2026

    Thanks so much for the kind words, Lexi! Your crowd was so much fun to DJ for and they made my job easy all night long. You were a joy to work with from our first planning call all the way to the last song. It was a privilege to be part of your wedding day. Wishing you two a lifetime of love and happiness together!

    Best wedding DJ EVER

    Jake from DJ Hooded Wolf was the best decision we made for our wedding day. He stayed organized and energetic throughout the night, keeping the dance floor packed for nearly four hours straight. What impressed us most was how tuned in he was to our guests and the overall vibe—he knew exactly when to switch songs and how to keep the momentum going. Jake was also incredibly flexible and helpful with managing the flow of events, which took so much stress off our shoulders. He made our celebration feel personalized and genuinely fun, which is exactly what we wanted. We would hire him again in a heartbeat.

    Thank you so much, Quentin, for your incredibly kind and thoughtful review! I am absolutely thrilled to hear that I was able to contribute to making your wedding day such a memorable and special occasion. It means the world to me to know that you and your guests had as much fun as I had DJ'ing for everyone. Wishing you and Evelyn a lifetime of love and happiness together!

    Bride

    Our wedding was a hit, thanks in large part to the talented DJ Hooded Wolf. From the start communication was timely, concise and informative making the booking process easy peasy. He arrived promptly and set up efficiently, allowing the reception to start right on schedule. We had a mix of non dancers and dancers and he kept both entertained! DJ Hooded Wolf was professional, personable, and truly helped make our wedding celebration unforgettable. If you are looking for a DJ, do not hesitate and book him!

    Thanks so much for the kind words, Steph! It was a pleasure working with you and I hope we get to party together again soon.


As long as the wedding couple are okay with it! If a request is on the couple's "do not play" list, I'll politely let guests know I can't accommodate their request. Otherwise, I'm happy to mix in requests on the fly.
Yes! My standard wedding package includes music for the entire wedding day. That includes guest arrival, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.
Yes! I carry full DJ event insurance and am happy to provide proof of insurance upon request.
I truly strive to provide a unique, personalized DJ set for every single client who hires me, so my style adapts to the tastes and preferences of my clients. However, my career started DJ'ing mainly with hip-hop and pop music and those are some of my favorites to this day. Some of my biggest influences as a DJ are DJ Jazzy Jeff, Digital Dave, and Nick Bike.
Although my setup only usually takes about an hour, I like to arrive for setup at least 2 hours before guests arrive. I always like to leave extra time in the case of emergencies.
Dance floor lighting comes included with my standard wedding package. I use a light bar with 4 LED wash lights that a have variety of modes including static, strobe, fade, and music-synced lighting. I also have a partnership with Ready Entertainment Weddings that allows me to provide add ons like CO2 cannons, "Dancing On The Cloud", uplighting, and even an LED wall.
From the moment you book me, you're not just hiring a DJ, you're getting a planning partner. Once you book me, I set you up with ViboDJ, my planning app. This app let's you build your timeline, import songs and playlists from Spotify or Apple Music, and flag your must-plays and do-not-plays. About 2 weeks out, we'll sync on every detail (ceremony music, grand entrance, dinner vibe, all of it) via video call. By the time your wedding day is here, we'll have covered every detail and be totally synced up so that you can be present during the biggest day of your life and enjoy the party!
