MUMBAI: Acclaimed electronic act HVOB (Her Voice Over Boys) will make its India debut with a two-city tour in March to promote their second album ‘Trialog’, which releases in April. The tour, which covers Delhi and Bangalore, has been put together by Wild City with support from the Austrian Cultural Forum.
Voted as the second-best live act in the world by one of the biggest influencers in dance music, Germany’s De:bug magazine – beating the likes of Darkside, Mount Kimbie and Disclosure – HVOB’s haunting sounds have helped carve a niche for the Vienna-based duo of Anna Muller and Paul Wallner, that no other outfit can quite fill.
Delhi-based DJ Moniker and the collaborative project Nicholson x Fuzzy Logic will open for HVOB in Delhi on 19 March, while Moniker will be the sole opening act in Bangalore on 20 March.
HVOB (Her Voice Over Boys) made its debut with an EP, ‘Dogs’ in 2012, which looked at contemporary electronic sounds through a unique lens. This distinct approach to making music has seen the duo of Anna Muller and Paul Wallner, create some truly sophisticated and poignant tunes in the years since their inception. In 2013, HVOB released their debut self-titled album to glowing reviews from the international music fraternity. They have played at festivals across the world from Germany’s Melt! and Fusion Festival and SXSW in Austin with appearances in the UK and The Netherlands to the Paris and Berlin Fashion Weeks.
