Tech House
The Willers Brothers
What do you get when you mix a two brothers, with equal amounts of ambition, natural talent and a fair old dose of Northern charm? ...The Willers Brothers, that's what, and they're one of the most exciting young acts to hit London's electronic music scene in quite some time. Since arriving in the capital in 2012, they've quickly notched up an impressive array of achievements, from a residency at Egg London to several well-received releases and a regular radio show on east London's premier online station, Hoxton FM.Their fate was sealed from the moment they were born, music is in the Willers blood you see. You couldn't go anywhere in the family home without hearing fresh new beats, whether it was hip-hop, drum'n'bass or a variety of other styles of music. If their dad wasn't playing it, then someone else in the house was... with that kind of upbringing there was really only one road for them to go down.Following in the footsteps of so many before them, Sean and Liam finally found themselves sucked in to the house and techno movement after a visit to the magical, mystical White Island, Ibiza. A place where positive energy emanates from the ground upwards, where inspiration is rife and countless lives have been changed forever by the overwhelming power of dance music. Upon their return to the UK they scrapped whatever else was happening in their lives, coverted their living room into a makeshift studio and began to put all their time and energy into achieving their dream of being a part of the world of house and techno.Drawing on influences such as Marco Carola, Dyed Soundroom, Rhadoo and Yousef the brothers placed their focus on a distinctly funky, groove-driven form of electronic music that combines elements of both house and techno. Of course, mere mixing alone is not enough to carry any DJ to the top in this day and age, which is where T he Willers Brothers' personality comes into play. Not afraid to go for it just as much as the dancefloor faithful when they're behind the decks, you can expect an energetic, entertaining performance each and every time. Add in their intuitive selection, ability to engage with their audience throughout their dynamic sets and you've got a winning formula!They now hold a long-standing residency at the infamous Egg London, where they have played alongside an almost endless list of the electronic music world's most famous names. Outside of their impressive residency they've clocked up appearances at clubs such as Fire, Pacha, The Warehouse, Rhythm Factory and further afield in Austria, Malta and the Czech Republic with plenty more gigs booked in for the rest of 2014 already. Parallel to their swift progression as DJs, Sean and Liam have been immersing themselves in the production side of things. Again, their musical genes have helped them to evolve swiftly, signing several releases in the space of a year. Labels such as 3Desires, Ultra Drum and Entail Records have snapped up their brand of deep, funky tech house and they continue to work away on new music with every spare second they have.To have come so far in such a short space of time may lead some people to become complacent, but Sean and Liam know how fickle the music industry can be and so continue to strive for more. With their focus aimed firmly on the future, there's no stopping them from making it all the way to the heighest of heights...
