Who is Aryan Rabizadeh?

Aryan Rabizadeh — known professionally as DJ Next Level — is the founder and lead DJ and MC of DJ Next Level Entertainment (also known as NEXT LEVEL EVENTS), a Los Angeles event entertainment and production company. A Los Angeles-based Persian-American DJ, he founded the company in 2009 and has produced weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, corporate events, and private celebrations across Greater Los Angeles and Southern California since.

He is the person behind both halves of the company's work: the entertainment — DJ and MC — and the in-house production of sound, intelligent lighting, and LED video that the company owns and programs itself rather than subcontracting.

Founder, lead DJ, and the production behind the show

Aryan leads the company's DJ and MC work — performing personally at many events — and directs the production team that runs sound, lighting (programmed in-house on grandMA3), LED walls, staging, and effects. Because one team owns entertainment and production together, the music, the lighting cues, and the visuals are built and run as a single show — the reason clients describe the company as one team rather than a DJ plus a set of vendors.

Cultural wedding experience

Persian and Persian-Jewish weddings are a core specialty — the Sofreh Aghd, the music of three generations from Persian classics to modern Persian pop, Persian 6/8 and Bandari sets, the grand entrance and knife dance — produced as part of the community these celebrations belong to. Aryan and the team also produce Jewish, Israeli, Armenian, and multicultural weddings, moving between the Hebrew and Israeli catalogs, the hora, and American and international music without losing the floor. Aryan MCs in English and can MC in Farsi for Persian and Persian-Jewish celebrations.

Aryan, and the team behind NEXT LEVEL EVENTS

Aryan personally leads many weddings, mitzvahs, Persian, Jewish, and Israeli celebrations, and signature events, while NEXT LEVEL EVENTS also works with a trusted team of DJs and production professionals for additional dates and full-service productions. That means clients can book Aryan personally where available, another approved NEXT LEVEL EVENTS DJ where appropriate, production-only services, or DJ and production together — and you always know who is booked for your event.

Live musicians and vocalists, dancers, and production crew are brought in from the company's roster as each event calls for, with the same in-house lighting, sound, and LED production behind every show.

Where the work happens

Event services have been provided at Los Angeles–area venues including The Beverly Hilton, Four Seasons Westlake Village, the Millennium Biltmore, Montage Beverly Hills, and Hyatt properties, along with private estates, ballrooms, and community venues across Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Encino, Tarzana, Calabasas, Malibu, and the wider county — and destination events beyond Los Angeles.

Beyond the wedding day

For families continuing the celebration with Sheva Brachot events, the team can also provide DJs, sound, lighting, and production support for additional gatherings during the week — with Aryan performing personally where his schedule allows, or an appropriate NEXT LEVEL EVENTS DJ and production team where not. This is an available follow-on service, scoped per event, rather than something bundled into every wedding.
