WILLY SOUL
A VITAL FORCE IN MUSIC
Representing Brooklyn, New York, Willy Soul is a seasoned DJ, producer, music programmer, and multidisciplinary artist. He is the Co-Founder and Creative Director behind TheGoodLife's annual Snowboarding & Après Music Festival, The Winter Get Down, and served as Camp Nice’s Music Director from 2019 to 2021. He is also the force behind Funky Seshwa, a warehouse party series and artist collective that has been running for seven years.
In addition, Willy has found his niche in the global roller-skating movement. He has held roles as music director at Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace NYC and at Europe’s biggest roller-skating festival, Skate Love Barcelona. He frequently collaborates with Swizz Beatz’s Saudi Arabian pop-up roller-skating rink and party, AlUla on Wheels, serving as a key programmer on the project.
Willy is currently the resident DJ and curator at Xanadu Roller Arts, New York’s first proper indoor roller disco since the famed Empire Roller Dome closed in 2007. He has also performed support DJ sets for artists like Kaytranada, Moodymann, and some of Brooklyn’s finest heavyweight locals.
Guided by music and community, Willy continues to connect the dots between music, roller skating, dancing, and positive activism through his travels, events, and musical output. His sound is eclectic, blending soulful, jazzy grooves with a wide range of genres and styles worldwide. Whether it’s the raw energy of a warehouse party or the refined atmosphere of an audiophile vinyl listening bar, Willy’s sets deliver.
