Vincent DJ Spinna Williams is something of an anomaly in music. A humbling
example of what it takes to truly succeed within the framework of multiple
fields. A steadfast work ethic, an obsessively extensive vinyl library and
the willingness to pursue the full extents of his roots (Funk, Soul and
Jazz), foundation (Hip-Hop) and future (Electronic/Dance music) with no
restraints. A cornerstone of Hip-Hops late 90s indie-uprise, DJ Spinna made
much of his first impression on listeners as the musical background of his
group The Jigmastas. As an emcee in New York City, if you didnt have a
Spinna production under your belt, well, you just hadnt accomplished all
there was to accomplish. Everyone from Mos Def, Talib Kweli to Pharaohe
Monch boasted Spinna beats to prove their worth to the scene.
Turning heads throughout the industry, Spinnas sonics soon infiltrated
numerous genres. Tapped by everyone from George Michael to Mary J. Blige to
Motown Records (for his brilliant Michael Jackson homage to Were Almost
There). Its here his production presence would flourish greatly, as Spinna
would go on to revive and revise Soulful marvels like Donald Byrd Eddie
Kendricks, Betty Carter, Roy Ayers and Al Jarreau.
With so much studio work, its a marvel Spinna travels as much as he does.
The constant, globe-trotting performances hes become equally famed for have
brought the DJ as far as Iceland, Australia, and South Africa as well as
countless jaunts through England, Europe and the U.S.
Yet nothing compares to his celebrated Stevie Wonder inspired
WONDER-FullDJ-performances (aside friend and contributor Bobbito Garcia).
Garnering overwhelming fanfare each occasion done - whether NYC, LA, San
Francisco, Japan or beyond if a WONDER-Full event is booked at a club you
can put money on a line around the block and thousands of Stevie Wonder
admirers rocking the house.
With a brand new album InterGalactic Soul at its completion, Spinna's
venturing to new reaches in his quest to musical harmony. Tapping into his
perfected take on a truly cosmic boom-bap to a sexy, stylishly accessible
brand of House and dance music that is unique only to him.
