Four flavours of house.
House isn't one thing. The right sub-genre at the right hour is the difference between background music and a full floor.
Rolling basslines and tight drums — the peak-hour workhorse that keeps rooms packed.
Warm, groovy and unhurried. Perfect for early hours, dinner service and rooftop sunsets.
Percussive, hypnotic and full of momentum — the sound that's taking over dancefloors right now.
Emotive, cinematic builds for the moments in a night that people remember afterwards.
Groove first, always.
Good house DJing is about patience — building a groove, holding it, and letting the room settle into it before you lift. Sophie mixes live and programs the arc of the night rather than chasing drops.
Key-matched blends and long transitions so the groove never breaks.
Deeper early, harder late — the set follows your crowd, not a template.
Weekly or monthly house nights, with fresh crates every single time.
Club CDJ / DJM booths or her own full rig for rooms without house gear.
A summer of house in Florence, Italy.
Sophie spent Summer 2026 as a resident DJ at clubs in Florence, playing house night after night to European crowds who know the genre inside out. That's the standard she brings back to Tampa Bay.
Tampa, St. Pete & the bay.
Wherever the room is, if it's in the bay area she can be behind the decks.
Common questions.
What styles of house music does she play?
Tech house is the core, with deep house for earlier hours and afro and melodic house woven through longer sets. She'll push harder or softer depending on the room and the time of night.
Is house music right for a bar or restaurant?
Absolutely — that's one of house music's strengths. Deep and organic house sits beautifully under dinner service and brunch, then the same night can build into tech house once the room fills.
Can she play a house set at a private party?
Yes. Birthdays, pool parties, boat parties, rooftop events and corporate parties all work. She can keep it purely house or blend in open-format when the guest list is mixed.
Does she mix live?
Every set is mixed live — beatmatched and harmonically blended, with track selection built around the crowd in front of her rather than a pre-planned playlist.
What does a house DJ cost in Tampa?
It depends on the date, set length and whether it's a one-off or a recurring night. Recurring residencies get better per-night pricing. Send the details for a fast quote.
