Review by Harison M.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 29, 2026•From Mora, MN

Overall, RK Sound did exactly what we asked of them and nothing more. They were easy to work with, but there seemed to be a lack of DJ experience, specifically for our dance. They accommodated all of our special requests very well, but never went above and beyond.

Very nice to work with; the only issue was a couple of loud amplified noises when getting set up

R.K.Sounds were excellent! They played all the music we requested and more. Everyone had such a great time! Not only were they professional, they were so friendly and happy. We truly appreciate the fun that they brought for our kids. We will see you next year! Thank you!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 13, 2025•From Saint Paul, MN

I got the impression they were fairly new at this, but enthusiastic, polite, and have potential to become great. They did an alright job. It wasn't great, but that is mostly my fault because I was so over whelmed with everything else, I did not give them enough info to be fully prepped. But they tried their best. They are very cool people, and when a technical issue happened (which happens), they stayed late to make up for it, which was very nice.

I was late in booking and R.K. Sounds was EXTREMELY accomodating. They came and provided a great experience. Very professional and answered calls and questions quickly.

We were very happy with the DJ. I left the playlist up to them and they did not disappoint. Very well done.

The team at R.K. Sounds was incredibly professional and punctual from start to finish. Great communication, fair pricing and an impeccable sense of spacial design for recommending the perfect format with the production of the event. We will definitely be utilizing their services again! 10/10

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 13, 2022•From Minneapolis, MN

DJ arrived early to venue, was all set up and ready to go before party started. DJ played very well, very entertaining, listened to guest song requests and played. Overall, made the party very exciting and we are very glad that we used his services. We would highly recommend him to others. JOB WELL DONE

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2022•From Belle Plaine, MN

I was greatly disappointed with this company. I booked them for my wedding for which I told them to be there at 3:00 pm, they showed up at 3:45 saying they had trouble getting there because they didn’t know where to go. I had given them the address at least 2 weeks before, giving them plenty of time to look it up. I also specified what to look for upon arrival. They missed songs during the ceremony and the transitions between songs took minutes. The microphones didn’t work either which could have been avoided if they had gotten there before hand. I am very disappointed that I had to deal with this on my wedding day.

:

Contract stated arrive 30 minutes before your wedding & we were set up, ready to go before your event but waited for electricity.The microphones were tested & were in working order but the officiant kept pushing the on/off button.After that was addressed they worked just fine for the rest of the night.We played all three songs that you requested for the ceremony.We asked you numerous times to send a playlist but none was sent.During the reception you were upset the DJ wasn't playing your music.He explained your playlist was instrumentals & slow cover songs not dance music as your own Dad had pointed out too & suggested artists, country music for the entry.

RK Sounds was great for our youth dance. We have had them for our event 3 years, and they are very professional, accommodated our events changing schedule, and were a great help to put together a youth appropriate song list.

Thank you so much Lynette for the review! We are so honored to be able to serve your entertainment needs. Please keep us in mind for any future events.

Our DJ's were very good at a very fair price. We were completely satisfied, and everyone in attendance had a great time

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 9, 2010•From Saint Paul, MN

R.K sounds did a great and professional job. They were very accommodating given the short notice booking. The sound and music was great, lights were marvelous. I would say they really know what moves their crowd and definitely got talent, or know their music. The price was so affordable compared to the work they did. Very friendly and gave us wonderful experience. I would no doubt absolutely hire R.K Sounds again or certainly recommend him to anyone!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 18, 2010•From Lakeville, MN

Due to transporation and detour challenges, the DJ arrived half an hour before the event was to start -- not the 2 hours as originally planned. However, once they did arrive and had their equiptment set up, they did a great job playing the music the kids wanted to hear. Had we not had the initial delay - I would have been extremely satisifeid.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 18, 2010•From Saint Paul, MN

We used RKSounds for a surprise birthday party. They were there and setup before we arrived and played all the music that was on the playlist I sent them. We were especially pleased with that because there were several pieces of music that meant very much to the birthday boy. Some of those had to be hard to find. I would highly recommend this vendor.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on March 12, 2010•From Eden Prairie, MN

We hired R.K. Sounds for our wedding.At our event,the DJ refused to "MC." We had to find friends to help.The DJ also was experiencing some difficulties which delayed the dance.Weird Dinner music.Note that they were there 3 hours early to set up.Good points:they were appologetic for the "mishaps" and played amazing music the rest of the night.Our dance floor was full the whole time!This company is also very affordable and willing to work with your schedule and your music preferences.The DJ played everything that we wanted.They have their own equipment.We would recommend using R.K. Sounds for your next party, prom, or large gathering.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 14, 2010•From Minneapolis, MN

I feel bad giving Robert a low rating. He's a nice guy, and he told me he just had his first child 1 day before my event, so he was busy and not as prepared as he normally would be. But, I did not get what I ordered, nor what he promised. I needed a karaoke DJ. He promised song books around the room for guests to browse, but he didn't bring them. He said he had 200 GB of songs, he didn't have most requested songs. The momentum of the party died because of the gaps between songs and frustration, and I only used Robert for 30 minutes of the 2 hr gig, everyone left. On the positive side, he was 3 hours early for the gig, and he appeared to have good equipment.

:

We appreciate Andrew's business but i think this is about not wanting to pay me than it is about the two songs that i couldn't play in karaoke format. they were not even on the play list he had sent me. All his play list was good as ordered. Time management was all his fault. His other performers did not clear the stage till about 40 min into our start time and at time(12am) his crowd had left and the remaining 8 folks and kids were on their way out too. I was setup in about 15 min. Was surprised as we were packing he had up and left without paying. when i catch up to him, he said,"taking kids home will pay you online tonight" He won't return calls or replay emails
