Yo Poznan

Alright party animals, we introduced y’all to DJ Łukasz Bekas a couple weeks back — the one-man drum-droppin’ wedding tornado who doesn’t just play bangers, he beats them into submission with live drums, smoke, lights, and enough wedding energy to make your grandma do the worm.

But we had questions. Big questions. Like, how many weddings has this dude survived? Has anyone ever thrown hands on the dance floor? And just how often does someone request “Despacito” after 7 vodkas?

So we hit up DJ Łukasz and met up for a pizza, for the ultimate behind-the-scenes confessional. And yo… he delivered. Strap in.

The Interview

How many weddings have you done?
At least 50 a year for over 13 years. That’s 700+ weddings. I’ve seen more first dances than people have watched “Friends” reruns. Hopefully more than 50% are still married… but hey, one woman booked me three times. Three different weddings. I guess I’m her lucky charm.

Did you give her a discount?
Discount? Nah. But I kept the same price every time. Loyalty points in reverse.

Which song always works at weddings?
Earth, Wind & Fire – September. Drop that, and uncles, babies, even the caterer start grooving. Instant chaos. Good chaos.

Any tragic stories?
Ohhh yes. One time there was this massive table with 130 champagne glasses stacked up, all ready for the guests. The photographer’s backing up, trying to get a good shot of the couple. Backs up… keeps backing up… straight into the table. Glass everywhere. Sounded like the Titanic hit the bar.

Do you get strange requests?
Always. There’s always one vodka-powered legend shouting for something weird like Serbian trap or Swedish polka. Then the dance floor empties like I hit the fire alarm.

Ever played for gangsters?

Yeah… once. Booked for a birthday. Show up, and I’m like, “Oh no… this ain’t no PTA meeting.” Everyone had chains, bodyguards, and tracksuits worth more than my gear. I played exactly what they wanted.

So how do you get them back?
I flip the vibe. If it’s too fast and people bail, I drop a slow love banger. If it’s dragging, I crank it with a banger. Music CPR, baby.

Did you ever get into any fights during a set?

Hahaha. No. I’m a lover, not a fighter, plus I’m a professional

What came first: the decks or the drums?
Decks. I was a club DJ before I became this drum-beating wedding machine. Then I thought: why not do both? And boom — DJ Perkusista was born.

Can you tell from the start if it’s gonna be a good wedding?
100%. If by the second song no one’s moving, it’s gonna be an uphill battle. But give me 10 minutes and a smoke machine — I’ll have grannies doing the Macarena.

Ever seen any fights?
Too many. One guy was flirting with a girl right in front of her boyfriend. Bold move. They took it outside. Meanwhile, inside, everyone’s doing “Pociąg z daleka” like nothing’s happening. Through the window — full-on WWE match.

Most popular first dance songs?
Christina Perri – A Thousand Years or Ed Sheeran – Perfect. One year I played Ed 20 times. Felt like I was living in a soft-focus rom-com.

You’re married. What was your first dance song?
Unchained Melody. Proper tearjerker. Real vibes.

So who DJ’d your wedding?
[Laughs] I was broke, man. Got the cheapest DJ I could find. And yeah, he made a few… choices. Like introducing my estranged dad for a speech — hadn’t seen him in years. The whole room just froze. I wish someone filmed the reactions.

Do girls ever flirt with you behind the decks?
I’m married. So… nope. Not a clue what that’s like. But the mic does seem to attract attention sometimes.

Back in the day? How did you manage to save up money to buy the equipment?

Be honest — do you judge people’s dance moves?
I can’t dance, so technically no. But yeah. Sometimes I see moves so wild I wanna sample them and turn them into a beat.

If someone reading this still isn’t convinced to book you, what do they need to know?
It depends on the setup, but we’re talking from 4500 PLN for the best party you will ever have!
