Who We Are

We don’t just provide entertainment... We create it!

Vinny Esposito, the founder and president of Split Second Sound, has been providing music and entertainment as a professional DJ/MC and musician for over 27 years. Performing for the first time at a July 4th party on Long Island in 1981, Vinny worked hard to became one of the most popular DJs in New York. Along with being a DJ, he played guitar and keyboards in regional bands, Vinny owned a 24 track digital recording studio called Split Decision that also had 4 room fully equipped rehearsal studio and 9 monthly band rental rooms, a mobile sound company.

Vinny and his wife Diane moved Split Second Sound (Split Second being the 2nd Split business they had) to Charlotte in 1999 and quickly established their company as the premier DJ company in the area. In 2002, Split had 3 DJ's on staff. Now, in 2009, it employs over 25 of the most talented and best paid MC/DJ Entertainers in the business.

The reason for the rapid growth of Split Second Sound is "years of experience catering to the exact needs of clients, along with a friendly and positive attitude," states Vinny. “We love what we’re doing and we pass that passion and enthusiasm on when we perform. With Diane running the office (that now has a staff of 3) and Vinny as the lead DJ out with his crew of entertainers, Split has grown every year by at least 15% since moving to the Carolina's.

One remarkable statistic proves the quality of DJ/MC services provided by Split Second Sound - over 90% of Split Second Sound's business comes via referrals from satisfied clients! Split did not advertise at all since September 2008 and it's business still grew 30% by mid 2009. "No business can grow as fast and strong as Split without a solid reputation and having a great product". In 2009, Split grew 48% during a recession, again without advertising.

In addition to hundreds of weddings (in fact, Split has provided Entertainment for over 1000 weddings in the last 5 years) and parties, Split Second even did a live mix for a Bud light commercial for NBC during an episode of the hit television show "Friends".

Split Second Sounds embodies family and values and all its DJ's are a part of a family team. "No egos, just fun parties because if we don’t have fun, they're not having fun" says Vinny. "A group mindset to provide the best product, based on what the client wants, not a cookie cutter performance, designed to exceed everyone's expectations every time".
