Two at the decks.
One evening.

We are Steve Manera & Tanita — a DJ duo from Vienna, available across Austria. We have been playing together since 2021: at balls, weddings, company parties and private celebrations — and regularly in Viennese bars.

We reply personally.

Who we are

Her charm, his energy.

Two DJs taking turns at one booth, open to every genre: we read the room from two perspectives and play what your evening needs right now.

Tanita

DJ · host

Tanita is a trained speaker. If you wish, she guides you through your evening — at the decks and at the microphone.

She produces podcasts, teaches at St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences and collects the voices of wedding guests for Voices of Love.

Steve Manera

DJ · music concept consultant

Steve thinks of the evening as a whole: from the first note at the reception to the last song, with an eye on running order, equipment and timing.

For more than 20 years he has taught salsa and bachata and played at Latin events — in Austria and internationally.

How we work

Personal. From start to finish.

We plan with you

In a planning call we go through song requests, no-gos and the moments that matter to you. We still play live, following the room and the mood.

We bring the equipment

Sound and lighting come from a single source, matched to room and number of guests. Everything is set up before the first guest arrives.

We stay until the end

Who is at the decks at your event is agreed with you in advance — the two of us or a DJ from our team.
