GENERAL INFORMATION We don't charge an agency booking fee and in most cases no VAT (sales tax) either - saving you a whopping 30% over many other agencies rates.   All DJ's, Tours and House artists are offered direct from our own roster - that means no middleman fees, plus we have closer control over the artists bookings, travel arrangements, and communication - some of the reasons behind our fantastic 13-year 100% unbroken artist appearance record worldwide.  To our knowledge no other professional DJ agency can match this. Unless otherwise stated in the contract the Artist will perform for a maximum 2-hours in the Artists usual manner and/or style. All enquiries, negotiations, and bookings whether by verbal, written, or electronic means are subject to our terms and conditions of business - by using our services you are agreeing to abide by them.  Please read them carefully before booking. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us - we are here to help you. We welcome enquiries for provisional bookings.  We can usually hold date options for 5-10 days, but please give our artists the courtesy of letting us know promptly if you no longer wish to take up the date/s, thank you. Please do not confirm a booking unless are able to pay as we do not offer credit terms - bookings must be paid for within 10 working days of contract issue unless specified otherwise in the contract.  Artists will not travel wthout receipt of 100% of fee as cleared funds and do not accept payment "on the night" terms. BOOKING TERMS We operate as an "Employment Agency" under the terms of UK employment legislation representing artists for the purposes of contracting them for temporary occasional work with Bookers as performer/s in the entertainment industry. All bookings or other business agreements are deemed to have been made in England and are subject to English Law. The Booker is responsible for arranging and paying for, in advance, all international flights, internal travel and hotel accommodation and board and any licensing and performance permits as required by local law unless otherwise stated in the contract. The Agency will provide Artist flight ticket information and must approve flight itinerary before Booker makes reservation. Unless otherwise stated in the Booking Agreement 100% of the performance fee and 100% of travel expenses and any other fees relating to visas or work permits as stated in this agreement must be paid by the Booker to the Agency within 7 days (unless funds are required earlier to ensure flight availability or visa application) of verbal, written or electronic confirmation of the booking by the Booker, irrespective of whether a formal agreement has been signed . Where the Booker is arranging and purchasing flight tickets and hotel vouchers on behalf of the Artist these shall be paid for in advance by the Booker and full details and tickets received by the Artist at least 10 working days in advance of the event. Full payment information will be advised on the contract. Payment must be made in GB Pounds free of deduction unless otherwise stated in the agreement by direct deposit into our account by internet or telegraphic transfer via a reputable bank or cable office. Sorry, we do not accept Credit cards, International Money Orders, Western Union, Overseas Cheques, or Bankers Drafts Neither the Agency nor the Artist can accept responsibility for cash payments sent by post. For bookings and financial transactions taking place wholly within the UK cheque payment may be acceptable by prior agreement of The Agency and providing sufficient time is available to clear funds prior to the event. The Agency reserves the right to refuse payment by cheque. In the event of that any part of the fee remains unpaid or travel or accommodation documents not received within reasonable time for the Artist to plan his/her travel, the booking shall be void and the Artist will not be obliged to fulfil the engagement. The Artist or the Agency shall give no refund of any portion of the fee or travel and accommodation expenses. CANCELLATION ETC We understand that things don't always run to plan and cancellations happen.  If your event is cancelled or postponed please tell us immediately, as given enough notice we can usually work around it. However if you don't tell us, or you cancel a firm booking with us at short notice where a contract has already been agreed you will still be required to pay the following; 1. Cancellation within two months of the event date - at least 50% of performance fee (may be higher for some artists - see ARTISTS OWN CONDITIONS below). 2. Cancellation within one month of the event date - 100% of the performance fee.   If the event or booking is cancelled or postponed for whatever reason the Agency shall not be obliged to refund of any portion of the Artists fee already paid. The Artist will take all reasonable steps to fulfil the engagement or advise the Booker of any problem or delay or non-arrival where this is both possible, practical, and permitted by the authorities. If for any reason the Artist cannot fulfil the engagement for reasons outside the Artist's control, including but not limited to acts of God, civil unrest, severe weather conditions, travel delays or breakdown of vehicles not owned by the Artist, flight cancellation or overbooking of flights or customs/immigration problems or damage or loss or confiscation of records or equipment en route or non-availability of accommodation or insufficient or incorrect directions to venue or refusal of entry to venue or similar occurrences outside of the Artist control the booking will be considered to be void and no refund of any portion of the fee or travel or accommodation expenses will be made to the Booker by the Artist or the Agency. If the Artist cannot perform for any personal reason including but not limited to death or illness or close family bereavement or other similar emergency the Agency shall take all reasonable steps to advise the Booker and where possible shall offer a replacement Artist of similar style and profile. All travel/accommodation costs for the replacement Artist shall be at the expense of the Booker. The non-performing Artist shall refund the full fee and return any unused tickets or accommodation vouchers to the Agency. The Agency will take reasonable steps to assist with the transfer of any travel or accommodation documentation to the replacement Artist providing this is practical in the time available, and that any charges relating to the transfer are paid for by the Booker. Where a replacement artist is not required or is unavailable the Artist will return to the Agency the monies received. The Agency will return such monies to the Booker less any bank charges incurred in the transfer. Bookers should note that many economy and discount flight fares are extremely restrictive in regard to cancellation, change of passenger, or change of flight and in some cases no refund or change is allowed by the airline or ticket agent. Neither the Agency or the Artist are responsible for additonal charges which may occur as a result of the Bookers choice of ticket purchase Despite our unbroken artist appearance record to date, for any event where a no-show could cause financial risk we strongly recommend that the Booker take out appropriate insurance to cover any direct and consequential loss that may occur. The Booker agrees that The Artist shall have the right to cancel the engagement without liability upon written or electronic notice to The Booker no later than 10 days prior to the date of the performance in the event that the Artist is called upon to render their services for a major radio or TV appearance, performance or recording, a motion picture or any other major career-advancing opportunity. Should this situation occur the Artist may be able to offer a mutually acceptable re-scheduled date to The Booker at the same performance fee as the original engagement. In the event of a re-scheduled date not being acceptable to the Booker or feasible for the Artist, the Artist will return net fees paid to them by The Agency and if applicable, return any air or travel tickets already physically provided to the Artist. The Agency will remit these to the Booker less any bank charges incurred. The Agency does not refund agency booking fees, bank charges or other transaction charges incurred during any part of the booking process to any party under any circumstances. FUTURE BOOKINGS Repeat bookings from the same Booker or organisation and new bookings resulting from the artists performance detailed in this contract must be made through the Agency. ARTIST'S OWN CONDITIONS Booking contracts may contain additional terms and conditions information specific to the artist or tour relating to advertising / billing, flight times, personal requirements, broadcast and recording rights, sponsorship, cancellation fees etc so please read contract terms carefully to avoid misunderstandings (contract terms take precedence over standard terms).
