About TempoZ...
Tom Zenk first began DJing dances in February, 1986,
when he worked for a radio station in Duluth, MN. He moved to River
Falls, Wisconsin with his family in August, 1988. In September of that
year, he bought his first set of equipment, and began operating under
the name Tempo Z Sound and Light. In the early days, Tempo
Z exclusively used records. The transformation to CDs began in the early
90s. A couple of years after that, karaoke was added. Today, Tempo
Z is one of the most successful mobile DJ companies in the area, giving
that special personal touch to all our customers special
events.

TOM
ZENK
Tom formally entered the world of radio as a college
student through his studies in Broadcast Journalism and Business Administration,
and a part time job at a local radio station, but his large family can
attest to an informal interest that stretched much further back. In
fact, though unsubstantiated, it is rumored that Toms first words
were actually from Loudon Wainrights Dead Skunk. His
love for music eventually brought him to birth Tempo Z in 1988. Since
then, with each dance he has worked, he has helped share with the masses
his contagious love of music and the joy it can help magnify.
MATT ZENK
As
well as his dashing good looks, Matt inherited his dads love of
music. Innocent bystanders were amazed early on to see baby Matts
demeanor change and feet start to dance whenever Robert Palmers
Addicted to Love played on the radio. Of course, the amazement
had nothing to do with Matts early rhythm, this was to be expected.
The surprise came in his early musical quality discernment. He has spent
the last twenty years shaping and sculpting these insights, and now,
as a student at the University of Tennessee, come to love sharing what
he has learned.
