October marked the 12-year anniversary for Medleys In Motion Mobile Disc Jockey Service in Grayslake.

What began as a request from a friend to play a few CD’s during an informal Halloween party, has catapulted Medleys In Motion making them “Chicagolands Premier Mobile Entertainment Service.”

“I never dreamed one event in October 1996 would lead to the success we have experienced in the entertainment industry,” says Gregory Koeppen, Owner.

To date, Medleys has had the fortune of playing in the Chicagoland area and five surrounding states over the past 12-years.  The company was also named “Mobile DJ Business Of The Year” by Chicago NiteLife Magazine in 2004.

“We consider ourselves on the cutting edge of new technology in the music industry and pride ourselves on having some of the most modern sound equipment in the industry,” adds Koeppen.

Whether a backyard party for 20, a wedding for 300, or a corporate event for 2,000, Medleys In Motion provides the talent, equipment and professional experience to make any event memorable and successful.

Koeppen contributes the success of the business, in large part, to the many friends and family members who have helped make the company a recognized and trusted name in the Chicago area entertainment market.

“My mom came up with the business name 12-years ago and would iron my tuxedo shirts before every gig back then,” jokes Koeppen.  “With the success of the business I have allowed mom to retire from the ironing board and let the local dry cleaners handle my shirts now,” adds Koeppen.

“I would be remiss if I didn't thank those individuals who have served as DJ's during the past 11-years.  Whether it was only one event or 100 events, their support and talents have helped this business grow,” says Koeppen.

Over the years, Koeppen and his team have made lasting memories at thousands of weddings, anniversaries, commitment ceremonies and corporate events.  Working for big name clients including Sony, United Airlines, Disney, Culligan, The Chicago Bear, Kohl’s, York International, The Walgreen’s Family, and the Chicago Gay Pride Parade, Medleys In Motion has never lost touch with why people continually look to them for entertainment.  Fun and professional sum it up!

Medleys In Motion also prides themselves on community and charity involvement donating many hours of entertainment to help fight cancer, homelessness, AIDS and heart disease.  The company was spotlighted on WGN Channel 9 News in 2005 and named “Unsung Hero’s” for the many hours of charity entertainment they perform each year.

As Medleys celebrates a 12-years of success, they look forward to many more years of quality entertainment.

“We’ve been in business for the past 12-years by no accident and we will continue to strive to reach and surpass the expectations of our clients during the next decade and beyond,” says Koeppen.

Koeppen also works full-time as the Manager of the Lake County Farm Bureau and serves on the Lake County Zoning Board of Appeals and is President of the Grayslake Chamber of Commerce of which Medleys In Motion is an active member.
