Background
DJ Sota Entertainment aka West Coast Wedding DJs was established in 2008 and has been involved in hundreds of events including over 1000 weddings. Having years of experience, we specialize in Weddings as well as Corporate Events, School Functions, Birthdays (Mitzvahs, Quinceañeras, Sweet 16’s, Debuts), Anniversaries, Concerts, Bars/Clubs, and many other types of Events. We have learned how to successfully help coordinate and run sound for a variety of events ranging from 25 to 1000 people. Over the years, we’ve grown an extensive knowledge of music and mixing and our current music collection, which is always growing, ranges from the 1920’s to the current Top 40, with Cultural Music from around the world.
Philosophy
- Each wedding or event is unique, and is a collection of people from a variety of age groups and cultural backgrounds, so we have learned to be flexible enough to meet the needs of any group. For DJ Sota Entertainment, each event is about the clients celebrating with their family and friends, NOT about the DJ/Emcee. We are not the style of DJ/MC that likes the sound of their own voice and plays their own personal favorite music selections, instead we custom tailor each event based on the request of our clients. we do our best to make sure our clients are happy and that their guest are having a GREAT time. We love seeing people celebrate to the music we spin.
Goal
- We know the DJ/Emcee is an essential part of your special event so we make it our goal to ensure each wedding or event flows smoothly and successfully and that everyone is having a great time. Our style is always professional and friendly because we know how important it is that you feel comfortable and confident with the DJ/Emcee you choose. We guarantee you will not be disappointed with choosing DJ Sota Entertainment.

DJ Tyler is a Minnesota native who has been 
DJing as long as he can remember, but professionally since 2011. Before relocating to California, along with doing 30-40 weddings a year, Tyler was also a director for a record label, as well as the host of multiple FM radio shows. He also DJs many other event styles, including private parties, festivals and clubs. His love for music comes from his grandparents whom he grew up with. His grandma loved listening to music, singing and dancing along, and encouraged the family to do the same. As a result he has a broad knowledge and love of all music genres. As a DJ, Tyler’s specialty is reading his audience and playing the best songs to bring the most life to the dance floor. He prides himself on being able to adapt to any event style, and he enjoys them all!
DJ Sheika, also known as DJ unSHEIKAble, officially began DJ-ing in 2002. 
She learned how to Beat-Match and instantly fell in love with mixing. In her senior year, she was the school’s unofficial DJ. Her DJ experience includes DJing many events here in southern California and also in Hawaii. DJ unSHEIKAble’s passion and interest has always been music so it made a lot of sense for her to be a DJ. Not only does she share her knowledge by offering DJ lessons, but she also creates custom themed mixes for the public and for special events. You can hear her signature sounds in all of her mixes, remixes and mashups on SoundCloud and MixCloud. The number one reason why she enjoys DJing, is she loves seeing people come together, live in the moment, and having a great time. She helps to remind us that “music makes memories.”
