Since taking over Spin Sum in early 2020 Willer has transformed the group into one of the most popular electronic music platforms in Hong Kong - with events selling out in minutes.
As the creative force behind Spin Sum, the events have become colourful mixing pots of dance, music, performance, and expression. In addition, as host of the Spin Sum Podcast, Willer has been connecting with some of the most interesting names in Asia’s music scene.
Willer has quickly established himself as one of Hong Kong’s best-known DJs, holding a full-time residency at Cassio Nightclub, the prestigious music venue that has hosted Solomun, Louis Vega, and many more over the years.
His first EP \"Garden of Life\" has been tested for months in Willer’s sets, across Hong Kong, in Cassio Nightclub, and as far back as Wonderfruit Festival in Thailand, in the fall of 2019. The EP is set for release on United Music Records in soon, with a range of carefully produced tracks that collaborate with an array of exciting vocalists and musicians.
The first single “Split Second” was released on November 22nd, which Mixmag Asia describes as a “superb balance of club-friendly vocals and melodics together with an afro-tech house framework that gives ‘Split Second’ that organic feel. Pulsating low synths ride effortlessly alongside a stark mix of electronic and organic percussion, and there’s no doubt that Willer had his favourite-peak-time-at-3am-hour peak time in mind when shuffling between studios across Hong Kong.” The release includes remixes from Spanish heavyweight producer Kiko Navarro who delivers 5 exceptional versions of the track.
Will is no rookie in the electronic music scene with supporting performances all over Asia alongside world-renowned talents such as Damian Lazarus, Rampa, Claptone, &ME, Viken Arman, Timboletti, Yokoo, Floyd Lavine, Hyenah, Sebo K, Marco Resmann, Kenny Glasgow, Oxia, Ryan Crosson, Parralels & Dee Montero.
Now, with production that lines Willer alongside the likes of Kiko Navarro, the many facets of his music career are pushing him forward into exciting new places.
