Hailing from the sonic vortex of Melbourne’s music community, WVR BVBY bring a live infusion of Down-tempo, Cinematic Prog and Jazz through what they like to call, Intergalactic Hard-Groove.

Emerging from several Melbourne showcases in 2017, Including Melbourne International Jazz Festival, Strawberry Fields Festival and PBS & The Foreign Brothers’ ‘MOMENTUM’. Melbourne’s Intergalactic Groove outfit, WVR BVBY, entered 2018 with an exclusive 10” white label release on Plug Seven Records that includes 2 singles from their Record Store Day Album Debut, out April 21st 2018.

Taking inspiration from crate digger culture, 70s production techniques, LA session musicians Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and Kamasi Washington, WVR BVBY fuse these timbres and tonalities with a Melbourne interpretation and a direction towards a cinematic environment. The large ensemble of musicians, who each hold down their own unique styles, work together through an electric journey of roaring horns, synth arpeggiation and an exploration of rhythm interplay and meditative grooves.

Spike Fuck is inspired primarily by love and obsession, addiction, sexual disorientation, Catholic guilt and washed up 60s musicians who make overproduced comeback albums a decade later crying out for redemption and a maybe even just little bit of the limelight back. Spike Fuck describes her music and attitude as a whole (for the sake of classification and utility) as “smackwave” - a blend of late 80s new wave and late 70s post-punk, a dash of country music/singer-songwriter sensibilities delivered in Las Vegas Ballroom karaoke vocal style. Currently working on her first full-length project, she describes her sound as  “country music uncovered in an archived .zip file somewhere on the Deep Dark Web.” But above all else - in the post-smackwave era Spike - lies at its heart a story of redemption, forgiveness and the ability to transcend pain through singing and dancing about it.
