For Pete, it all started with a box of old 45rpm records in his parents' basement, most of which he still has! At a very young age, he began sitting and playing the records on a turntable, pretending he was working for a popular radio station. As time passed, he knew this would become a career choice.
In high school, he began asking for DJ equipment as gifts for either birthdays or Christmas and would practice DJ'ing in his room at night. He began doing church dances and birthday parties. He booked and DJ'd his first Wedding when he was just 15 years old using cassette tapes, records, and even a few CD's.
Almost 20 years, hundreds of satisfied clients, and a 28,000 song hard drive later, Pete has become a member of the Signature DJs family and in his Mobile Disc Jockey career has performed at any type of function you can imagine from block parties to birthday parties to Weddings and Bar and Bat Mitzvahs.

Many of our clients have commented on his unique attention to detail, friendly personality, professionalism, responsiveness, and vast knowledge of all different types of music. Whether it is mixing music or emcee'ing at an event, Pete always looks for ways to craft his skills and better his abilities as a Mobile Disc Jockey. Whether you want the latest and greatest hits or something more obscure, Pete will take great care in providing the music you requested while allowing an enjoyable time for you and your guests.
His interests include sports (Phillies, Flyers, Eagles, and Sixers of course!), collecting music, computers, radio, and enjoying time with family and friends. In addition to working for Signature DJs, he currently works full-time doing Data Analysis for a mortgage insurance company. Pete is also “broadcast-trained” as he does a weekly internet radio show on Destination Doo-Wop and for 2 hours each Monday night plays a great mix of Doo-Wop, Rock 'n' Roll, and early Soul from the 1950's and early 1960's. If that isn’t enough, he was the Program Director at his college's radio station, interned for 94.1 WYSP-FM in Philadelphia, worked as a producer at New Jersey 101.5FM, was guest DJ on WPST-FM in 1997 and also hosted a “Finest Hour” program on Radio 104.5FM in 2008. He took his interest in Radio to another level by teaching a college level Introduction to Radio course at his college a few years after Graduation.
Pete very much looks forward to working with you at your next event!

Dear Peter,
Thank you so much for DJ’ing at our wedding! I know I had many specifications, but you were very patient and listened to everything I asked for—even during the reception where you also used your expertise to play even better music than what I had suggested. It kept people up, dancing and having a great time!
A few people came up and asked if we had chosen all the songs, except they were coming up to us during your picks (don’t worry, I gave you credit!). We can’t thank you enough—you really helped make our day special.
Sincerely,
Mark and Lauren Lowmaster
PS—Thank you also for the CD! It’s wonderful to have a copy of all of our “momentous” songs—you really went above and beyond! Thanks again for everything!

Hi Scott.
I just wanted to let you know what a terrific job Pete Casiello did at our reception. I let him know as well. I couldn’t have been more pleased, and the fact that my very conservative uncles fot our on the dance floor for the first time in their entire lives speaks volumes!
So thanks for providing such professional DJs. I’ll definitely keep your company in mind if I have any future events.
Regards,
Jill Stoltzfus

Pete,
You were fantastic. Not only are you talented and had everyone up on the dance floor before dinner even started!!! You are such a hard and very professional worker. I loved having you as my DJ…you listened to and brought life to all of my ideas. My pastor said that you were the best sound person that he has ever worked with for an outside wedding. It felt like the sound was everywhere as my vocalist sang. No complaints. Not one. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for bringing together Spanish music with American music SUCCESSFULLY!
Sincerely,
Jackie & Leo Toro

Peter,
We most definitely wanted to write you to thank you for the absolutely amazing job you did in supplying the music during our wedding day. The sound quality was superb. Your ability to change gears on the fly when needed was seamless, and your versatility in setting up your equipment both inside and outside at Joseph Ambler Inn was a huge plus. But most of all, your skill in tailoring the music selections, announcements, and overall style of your craft to our personalities and preferences went well above and beyond our expectations.
This was the best DJ-ing we’ve ever seen/heard. We would certainly recommend you to anyone looking for a DJ for any type of event without a doubt.
Thank you,
Troy and Jessica Holl

Scott,
I can’t thank you enough for having Pete DJ our wedding. He is so awesome, and great to work with. I can’t say enough about him. We had so much fun because of him, and all of our guests loved what he did with giving away the centerpieces. HE ROCKED it all night. It went by so fast and I didn’t want the night to end.
Thank you and Pete again for everything. I will definitely recommend Signature DJs to anyone, and especially Pete Casiello.
Ceinwen and Paul Altemus

Dear Scott,
Thank you so much for the wonderful experience we had working with you and Signature DJs. As you know, we already knew of Signature DJs and were expecting a great job—you and Peter far exceeded our expectations!
Peter did a fantastic job and he was a wonderful addition to our wedding day! We had chosen most of our music ahead of time; he made a few suggestions to add to our list and he did a phenomenal job with the mix as well as handling a few extra things (ie—belly dancing, birthday song, etc.)
We will be more than happy to pass on your name to anyone we know that is looking for music for their event.
All the best.
Jodi & Rich Briden
