Meet Bryan
Founder of Free State Audio, a.k.a. DJ Bulbous
I started Free State Audio for a simple reason: I love people, I love music, and I love bringing them together. My goal is to create celebrations where guests feel welcome, friendships grow, and everyone finds a reason to enjoy the moment.
With over 15 years in human resources and human capital, I’ve built my career around listening, understanding people, and communicating clearly. I bring those same priorities to your event, starting with your ideas and helping turn them into a clear plan.
As DJ Bulbous, my musical tastes span genres and generations. I enjoy finding the right song for the moment, whether you want a relaxed atmosphere for conversation or an energetic dance floor. Your favorites, your guests, and your style guide the music.
I’m energetic and outgoing, with a relaxed approach when the occasion calls for it. Above all, I want you to feel heard, comfortable, and excited about your celebration.

How we approach your event
Your event starts with listening. We take time to understand your priorities, work through the practical details, and shape the music around your guests. From the first conversation to the final song, our approach centers on clear communication, thoughtful preparation, and personal attention.
Understand your celebration
We begin with your occasion, guest count, venue, and the atmosphere you want to create. We discuss what matters most to you, from a relaxed gathering to a lively dance floor, so our recommendations reflect your plans.
Define the right coverage
Together, we review your schedule, event spaces, and sound, microphone, and lighting needs. Your written proposal sets out the agreed services, coverage, and pricing, giving you a clear basis for deciding what fits your event.
Prepare the music and details
Before your event, we review your timeline, favorite genres, must-play songs, and do-not-play list. We confirm announcements, name pronunciations, venue access, and setup arrangements, along with the person to contact if plans change.
Stay attentive throughout
On the day, we follow the agreed plan and stay in communication with your designated contact. We adjust the music and energy to the occasion and your guests, while keeping your preferences and key moments in focus.
