About Me

First off, please call me Will. I buy and sell metalworking machinery by day and push house music forward by night. I've been playing deep and funky house music (as well as a little hip-hop, reggae and downtempo at times) in Philly clubs for over 13 years now and have traveled to perform in various venues around the USA and the world. Also produce deep house music- with a little help from my friends- and assist in the business affairs for WORSHIP & SHAKEDOWN RECORDINGS in Philadelphia. Really enjoy listening to and creating/mixing music, surfing on the beautiful shores of New Jersey and playing poker with my degenerate friends.

My Interests

Music, Surfing, Sunshine, Poker, BBQing, Craft Beer, Bowling, Yoga (when i'm not feeling lazy), PortFishington, Philly Sports Teams- and much much more :-)

I'd like to meet:

Good peoples who can go with the flow...

Music:

WORSHIP RECORDINGS is an independent deep house label that slants towards the dubby/reggae inspired tech house sounds but at the same time also pays homage to the classic side of the genre. Whether it be vocal, tribal, techy, tracky or jazzy, Worship Recordings (and it's offshoot monthly party in Philly called 'The Shakedown') always brings you quality deep, underground house sounds. Please support the music we put out!
You can buy all our stuff in the online store at:
www.worshiprecs.com

Make sure you peep my mix CDs:
WOR.CD.02
'City of Brotherly Dub'
and
'Coolburnin' with Willyum'

I've also done some studio work with Rob Paine

Besides the music we collectively create and support, i like a multitude of sounds, from jazz to classic rock to 90's to old-school hip hop to reggae -- and most points in between...
