Willie Graff was born to American parents on the island of Ibiza,
the nerve center of electronic music. He started developing a taste for

tender age of 13, when he began frequenting local nightclubs and
listening to house music. Willie got his first DJ residency at a beach
club playing all styles of music at the age of 14. After only one year,
he was spinning in many of the popular bars on the island as well as on
Ibizas most popular radio station, Cadena 100. It was at this time that
Willie was discovered and asked to guest DJ at Ibizas world famous
club, Pacha. A few months later, he became Pachas youngest resident DJ
and is still there today during the summer season. Willie has played in
