Wedding DJ
We were really pleased with our choice of DJ. Manuel and the crew were amazing, they managed to create a great atmosphere and got people who usually don't dance to the dance floor! Manuel is so much more than a DJ, the whole performance with singing and instruments was perfect, he even brought us a surprise guest. 😎 The communication and planning went smoothly from the beginning to the end.

Perfect from start to end
What can I say about **Musicology** and **Manuel** that hasn’t already been said countless times? From our very first conversation right through to the day of our wedding (and beyond), the communication and attention to detail were exceptional! Manuel is a true professional who went above and beyond, helping us with last-minute song changes and finding music we thought would be impossible to source! As a couple with little clue about wedding planning, we put all our trust in him and his years of expertise, and it paid off in the best way possible. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the entertainment, and we couldn’t have been happier. I can’t recommend Musicology enough—it was an unforgettable experience!

Musicology Delivered the Perfect Party!
We couldn’t have been happier with Musicology at our wedding! From the first conversation, Manuel and his team were attentive, professional, and truly passionate about what they do. They took the time to understand our vision and made sure every detail was perfect. The live performances were absolutely stunning, our guests were blown away by the saxophonist and the energy on the dance floor was incredible, thanks to Manuel's DJ set and live percussion.
What really stood out was how seamlessly they blended everything together, creating an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. The music was a perfect mix, keeping everyone on their feet all night. If you're looking for top-notch entertainment with a personal touch, they are the way to go!

Best Choice-best FUN
Choosing Manuel and his Interactive Disco band was the best decision for several reasons: they are different, extra professional, yet extremely friendly, talented, energetic. Our mixed wedding (multiple nations) was organized on island Hvar, we had a few extra wishes and requests and Musicology successfully passed all the challenges. We all had a great time until the early hours of the morning. if I were to get married again, the only one that comes to mind is the Interactive band together with Manuel Lupen.
Guys, thank you from the bottom of my heart❤

Manuel made our wedding!
Manuel and his team were everything we could have dreamed of to make our perfect wedding day a reality. The music for us was to be the main event above all else and Manuel delivered. We worked closely with him to curate the perfect playlist and set which his incredibly talented musicians excited beyond our expectations. Our guests were truly dazzled by them! Most importantly, they procured the desired atmosphere and had people dancing all throughout the day. Whilst we had not met Manuel in person before the wedding day we had every confidence that we were in safe hands from his professionalism and responsiveness during the planning stages. We owe the roaring success of our day, which most said was the best wedding they had ever been to, to Manuel and his team

Excellent performance
I recently celebrated my 50th birthday, and I was lucky enough to have DJ Manuel Lupen, along with their incredible drummer and saxophonist, perform at the event. The crowd was a vibrant mix of international guests from Dubai, New York, South Africa, Zurich, Germany, Iceland, Spain, Italy, Paris, London, Sweden, and the music was absolutely spot on.
The duo managed to perfectly capture the zeitgeist, creating an electric atmosphere that had everyone on their feet. The dance floor was packed all night, with guests thoroughly enjoying the seamless blend of beats, live drums, and soulful saxophone. It was a truly unforgettable experience, and everyone left with fantastic memories of a night filled with music, laughter, and dancing. Thank you, Manuel and Luca, for making my milestone birthday celebration an incredible success! Your talent, energy, and ability to engage such a diverse audience were simply outstanding.

Best wedding entertainment we could have asked for
We were absolutely blown away by the incredible talent of the Musicology Team! Manuel's voice was pristine and amazing! The saxophone really set the mood as well as the electric violin was out of this world. When we started to consider entertainment options for our beautiful wedding, we knew that we wanted to end the evening with party music. So going with a band was not the best option for us, however when we discovered Musicology and the hybrid approach to mix a DJ like setting with live performance/music we instantly were hooked! This is not a DJ that is hidden in the room, Manuel and his team, truly entertain from start to finish and BRING THE PARTY! We are so thankful for them

Manuel from Musicology is the best!
Manuel from Musicology absolutely made our wedding party!! He was so understanding and helpful when we booked, he thought of things we hadn't and was just amazing. Our guests are still talking about how great the DJ was. I would say, if you are thinking of booking Manuel, don't thing about it a moment more, just book him! You will not regret it!

Great Experience!
Manuel is a great DJ and without him our wedding wouldn't be as good as it was. Besides being a great DJ, he is a performer, percussionist, singer and has really good communication with the guests. The dance floor was always full and our guests were amazed. If you want your wedding or any kind of event to really stand out- he is your man! 10/10
