About Me

Not unlike other deejays, Big Will has a love for music which transcends the love for a great beat. Big Will looks for the message in the music which provides an almost Zen/spiritual uplifting to him and the audience he spins for. He began this relationship with instrumentals and vocals at the tender age of 16. After sneaking in and eventually becoming a member of the Music Box. The Pied Piper of House, resident, Ron Hardy quickly turned Big Will into a House-head. He..s been a guardian of this genre every since. Big Will took the typical career route .. college to corporate America. Although gaining much financial success , he ruefully recalled better personal happiness .. that in his Music Box party days and as a novice spin doctor in college. It was this epiphany that led Big Will to embark on a life as a professional disc jockey . Now , nearing a decade of experience, Big Will has honed his skills to include urban underground, progressive, gospel and traditional House as well as soulful disco. He has extensive knowledge of the Chicago nightlife scene having held several weekly residencies in clubs on the Southside .. The Dating Game and near-north, Ear Candy. He has built a cult following, not only of loyal dance fans but of well-respected peers, DJ Brian Sayles, DJ Brian Furious Frazier to name a few. In 2007, DJ Big Will seeks to broaden his base and extend his mixology throughout the world. Once DJ Big Will..s music and audience connect, you can find him dancing and jacking behind the turntables. A good time is had by all, and the Message in the Music is Love .
