Carl will play music throughout the night and someone will stay overnight with him on the premises for safety reasons.
As part of the challenge he is not allowed to play the same song within a four and half hour period so Carl will be delving into his extensive music collection for as many tunes as possible.
Dad to Nancy who is eight, Carl (41) has a full time job working for a signage and vehicle company but he loves his DJing.
He said: “I began working as a glass collector in bars and that’s when my interest in music began. I went on to start DJing and I have also managed a couple of different venues.”
