Meet Our DJs
Platinum Music Productions was founded in 2005 by DJ Justin Markle. His first gigs were school dances, block parties and weddings around Columbus.
Justin started with one DJ system and quickly grew to a small multi-operation business that hires only the best people. All of the DJs share the same enthusiasm and dedication for creating a memorable event.

I love seeing people dancing and having a great time. Life is a party! When it comes to music 90’s-early 2000’s is my favorite. I grew up with music in almost every aspect. I started playing the trumpet in 5th grade and became a 1st chair trumpet player in our high school jazz and marching band. I also was a big part of our school’s chorus from 6th grade all the way into high school. I attended a show choir competition in Philadelphia in 8th grade as a baritone (yep a deep voice). I went on to join our high school show choir that performed at Disney in Florida and we won first place. On a side note a few friends and I had a little acapella, barbershop group where we did some Boyz II Men songs. I did love doing “Slim’s” bass lines for all of it! You might still catch me doing that on karaoke nights if you sing a Boyz II Men song. If you want to know a weird, yet fun fact about me and Elvis Presley, just ask me. It’s a great conversation piece that will blow your mind! haha.

Let’s have fun and dance the night away! I’m pretty versatile in almost all genres of music but I personally enjoy 90’s alt-rock and pop-punk. I know it’s not common but that’s what I like. And I love my wife and kids too.

Karaoke Host & MC
Hi, I’m Bill and I’ve been a DJ since 1991. The best part about being a DJ to me is seeing people react to the music I’m playing. I have a wide array of music that excites me; from classic country to 2000’s rock. My wife and I live in Columbus with our dogs Jillian, Copper & Ziggy. Looking forward to seeing you out there dancing soon!

I love providing the music that makes everyone feel like it’s the best night of their lives. I have a passion for giving a true unique experience as a DJ. Finding songs that will make you feel like you can’t stop dancing. I love all types of music although EDM/House music gets me the most excited. In my spare time I love hanging out with the best fur baby named Mucho. She’s a Frenchie puppy that is very…A LOT!
Cody Matthews
DJ + Production Assistant
There’s no words to describe the joy I have seeing people come together, let loose and enjoy themselves. I would love the opportunity to create the ultimate soundtrack for you and your guests. Let’s chat for a bit and create the event that you envision. I’m here to help!

“I could not have asked for a better DJ service! My wedding was September 23rd and Justin did a fantastic job with everything! He helped the ceremony run very smooth with very nice transitions and then provided a great music selection during the reception. He was very good with me and my bridesmaids very specific music requests at the end and was more than happy to accommodate all of our needs. I even had some last minute (day of) changes that I made that went very well!”
“Our dj for our wedding was Jordan and we don’t have enough words to explain how awesome he was. He really felt like an old friend. He talked to everyone and had a great music selection. He was just awesome! I would definitely recommend him to anyone in search of a dj.”
“Justin absolutely killed it and was great to work with. He was very reasonably priced and fair when it came to set-up/tear-down at our venue. We really appreciated the way he worked with us. We got married at the Bluestone in Columbus. The wedding coordinator and one of the servers each said they had never seen the dance floor as packed as our wedding was. I think the DJ is definitely the facilitator of that. ”
