WVR BVBY is the next link in the chain of the Melbourne soulful sound that has been developing strongly over the past decade.

 

They create cinematic sounds through roaring horns, synth arpeggiation and a rhythm section that sways from meditative grooves to dramatic, complex rhythmic interplay with tight precision.

Recorded at Fitzroy's Plug Seven Studios, The 8 track LP was inspired by mixture of crate digger culture and 70s production techniques, recorded in one take sessions using direct to tape technology.

The name WVR BVBY (pronounced WAR BABY) has a special connection to the leader of the 8 piece ensemble, Carl Lindeberg who plays bass. The story goes that Lindeberg's parents first met and fell in love in the war torn Middle East during the Gulf War, and the result of that union was Lindeberg himself.

The album is the sophomore release of independent label Plug Seven Records, run by Plug Seven Records store and studio owner, Ari Roze. Be prepared to be taken on a mesmerising journey.
